I got these boots in 2021 and used them for a few seasons. They're really comfy and great for skiers at the beginner to intermediate level. I never experienced any pain while skiing in these boots. My usual size is 7-7.5 (37.5-38 EU). However, during a ski lesson, my instructor mentioned that I have narrow calves, so there's too much space in the shin area. I tried using shin pads to fill up the extra room for a while, but then I decided to get a new boot that's narrower. So, I'd recommend this boot for someone with medium or wider calves (you can adjust the fit by moving the buckles).
These boots are used but still have a lot of life in them. They show some signs of wear, but they're a more affordable option compared to renting boots if you're planning at least one ski trip this season. Having your own boots is a game changer. Or get a new boot liner to upgrade them!
