Comments about Salomon Idol 8 Ski Boots - Women's 2009:

Bought the Idol 8's to upgrade my ancient mid-entry ski boots. Very happy with the purchase and after a few early season days breaking them in I am now experiencing no pain whatsoever. They are a perfect fit and I cannot recommend enough to buy your equipment at Evo. [...]

I am used to a tight fitting boot, as I was a racer not too long ago. These are a half size bigger and still hold well. They fit great!

Don't forget to have the liner heated to mold to you foot. Makes a huge difference in the over-all volume fit. I didn't know you could do this with the liner. Had too much top to bottom volume in the toe box and after trying a number of solutions on my own, finally got great help at Christy's at Copper Mt where they heated the liner which filled out and fit it to my foot. A set of heal pads, my usual needed fit fix to lock the heal in tighter and I was good to go on bumps, screamers, and crud!

These boots are very comfortable. They were a little snug the first couple days I wore them, but now they feel perfect! I highly recommend them. I have larger calfs and they are a little tight up-top, but also, that is loosening up with time and wear too.

Very comfortable boot especially with the custom insoles. The boot fits snug, but not overly tight, and my feet stay nice and warm.

Great boot - night and day better than my previous beginner-level boot. With the custom insoles, my feet are very comfortable in the boot, with a snug but not overly tight, fit.

Low volume feet - aside from splurging and buying a shiny new pair from Full Tilt (at nearly $700), this is as good as it gets.

these were such a great find! i was warned by friends about purchasing boots without previously trying them on, but i lucked out. i have a narrow heel and a slightly wide forefoot (wear sauconys to run), small calves. these felt great right out of the box - able to get a tight fit for control.

In general, I think this is a good boot. For me, it's just a touch too short and just a touch too wide, but that may just be my foot. Highly adjustable. Good on all parts of the mountain.
