Rossi Thermo Adjustable Fit

something that can be performed by the enduser? Doe anyone know if
Rossi has published the procedure anywhere?
Ordered as a gift for my son and if I can help fit him snugger with a
hair dryer or something. That would be great. I have used Thermo Fit
liners in alpine boots before but I should think the process would be
a little simpler with the nordic style.

Basically it just conforms to your feet over time, softened
up by normal body heat generated while skiing. I've heard
that you can speed it up with a hair dryer but I haven't
found that I've needed to.

couple years and it seems as though both did indeed improve their fit
nicely over time. They started out not so hot then got pretty good.
The one pair I had last year was a lower model, I lose track of the
number, but its lace loops were sewn-in rather than sewn-on. The new
boots are sewn-on. A couple of the sewn-in lace loops pulled out after
maybe 6 uses. So if your loops are sewn-in maybe be careful about
tightening them very much. The new sewn-on ones on my X7's seem like
they'll be stronger---but the boot itself is a combi and basically too
heavy/tall for my druthers. It seems quite nice in quality, though.
