Hi all,
Bit of a long question, but I'm sure some of ya'll have been in the same shoes (no pun intended) as me.
No good boot shops near me- just an REI with a handful of Lowa models (Camino, Tibet) and a couple Zamberlan (Vioz Lux GTX RR, Baltoro Lite). I ordered some Crispi Kenai's off Black Ovis, but they have an airtight return policy and I'm a bit worried that since I can only wear them around the house (can't return em if they go outside), I may screw myself here. Bought the Kenai's because they seem to fit the bill for a good all-around boot, and I've read that Crispi's are fairly true to size. How do you determine that the boots you ordered online are the right fit/keepers? And what do you folks do in this scenario? Go local and limit your options for a potentially better warranty, or buy online and risk it? Any tips appreciated. This is my first pair of high end boots. Thanks.
