Or is it the cuff on the left boot? Or they're both wrong? Or both right?

Pants came yesterday. It turns out that they're red, not orange.

More like I took the boot off (I only tried on one upon arrival) and didn't pay attention when I buckled it back up. :lol:

mondeo- They sure looked orange in the pictures!

I got a package yesterday, but it's non-skiing-related. Kombucha scoby. I'm sure you're all excited.

What we are saying is that the cuff and liner look correct on the right boot, only if it was in the left(liners in the wrong boots). I think Phil said it "inside in, outside out" for the cuffs.

My head is already spinning from being severely dehydrated yesterday and not being fully re-hydrated yet... let's not get into this conversation again.

I'm sure he'll take care of it. And if not, I'm sure you guys will be quick to correct me once I start using them anyway.

Outside on the outside, please.
If you take the liner out of the boot, you can see where the seam overlaps the other over the toes.
If you happen to have heat moulded them the other way then, you may have formed them so you feel more comfy the wrong way......emphasis on WRONG.

The Solly 1080 Fish Twin Tips I got for my son came today!. I'm going to sve them for a present for next season. I have to get them mounted now. I don't know if it might wind up cheaper to buy the bindings from a local shop and hope for free mounting, or buy the bindings online for a lower price and pay for the mounting at a loca shop. I'll have to look around and do some research. While I can't ski I might as well shop.

Funny how many UPS, Fedex, etc.... trucks you see out there. Growing all the time. I wonder what kind of affect online shopping has had on those businesses in the past 10 years.

as of now ups and fedex shipments are down as fewer folks are shopping online due to the economy...we have daily pickups at 530, but they've both been showing up at 4-430 as they are all done and want to head back to the depot.....

I'm surprised. Both businesses I have done direct sales for use Fedex ground for deliveries and those businesses have continued to grow despite the economy. Everybody still eats after all.

I could believe that, but what is there business like compare to 10 years ago?

I have three packages due a little later this week. I've been driving myself nuts refreshing the tracking pages, even though the first package isn't due until Wednesday...
