Hey!
I have Salomon IDOL 8 CS women's ski boot from 09/10 in Crystal Starlight/Black translu.
I am buying skis and need the sole length but my boots are in my flat in the resort!!
Does anyone know what the mm length would be? I've looked online and can't find it.
I'm a UK size 5 shoe so I'm estimating the boots would be maybe a size 24?!
Thank you!

Scroll down near the bottom.
I guess this is so that you can get the correct size of bindings?
Bindings usually have a good range for fitting boots.Think of all the different sizes that rental skis have to fit.

I would think you are in a 22.0 or even a 21.0 shell. A 23 might be quite big.

Are the bindings on a rail sytem? If so you really don't need to worry.

BTW even if they do mount the bindings on the skis, you will still need to check the forward pressure with your boots in the bindings.
because I'm so inclined .....

trencher, UK size 5 not USA so the true conversion would be a 24.0 but in reality if the boot was fitted could be a 23

on the Idol if it is a 23 then 277mm if a 24 then 287mm on the instinct boots it would be 275mm and 285mm respectively

I am a Brit so did that conversion. A few women I know who would be UK 61/2 are in 23 Salomon shells, but I bow to your professional knowledge.
