As of the writing of this question I have a pair of both in my correct size. Out if the box the inner of the Spantik fits more like a slipper and the toe box overall feels just roomy enough. Overall a pretty good fit. With the Baruntse, the liner seems much roomier and the boot seems to push down on my outside right toes only (my slightly larger foot) a tad, which seems weird; enough to make me wary. My question is this: How much will heat molding the Baruntse liner matter? Will they swell much to be more slipper like and is there a good chance the toe area will reduce in volume so there is more wiggle room? I realize you can't know exactly how my feet feel, but any advice is much appreciated.Bradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03059205209823144124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6940163880772720830.post-91908006999445894472010-10-06T14:09:46.698-07:002010-10-06T14:09:46.698-07:00I think the Baruntse liner is actually warmer than...I think the Baruntse liner is actually warmer than the Spantik liner. I am positive they fit me better after heat forming. Much much easier to lace and get in and out of while actually using them. I stayed with the same size (45) in outer and inner boots for the Spantik and Barunste as well as the 6000.<br /><br />Not sure what to recommend or if I would recommend going to a smaller shell. They aren't that much thinner inside the outer boots and seem to be very similar in over all volume. The 6000 has the least amount of inner volume bewteen the three shells. Baruntse and Spantik seem very close internally. But hard to tell as I never did get a molded fit on the Spantik inner.Danehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08300760603627210620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6940163880772720830.post-12989712576831387052010-10-06T13:57:07.057-07:002010-10-06T13:57:07.057-07:00How do they compare in warmth compared to the orig...How do they compare in warmth compared to the original Spantik inner? I also guess you could step down a size or a half in the outer boots?Edvinnoreply@blogger.com
