zuendapp Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 I have Gaerne oil boots with water proof liner, When new, the boots were very tight across my foot ( I have normal width feet) After the boots were broken in they are somewhat wider across my foot. I still can't wear heavy boot socks. I did see Toni Bou's training video and it appeared Toni was using a very thing sock ( Lycra maybe? ) What are these socks? Are they trials Specific? PS: It looks like Gaerne normal boots do not have the water proof liner, is this a good option? Tight boots Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0007 Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 There is a lot of snow ski stuff out there that works, it's knee height I would work on stretching the boot to work Get them hot with a hair dryer and crank em up tight with a pair of thick socks, walk around the house and do lots of deep knee bends Also alcohol in a little spray bottle will let the leather streach Worked great for my Novogars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
