Email them. They're pretty responsive. They might have a chat function on their site too.

I haven't ridden my TM2s since November, I added some thin shims between the liner and the shell, added some foam to the back of the liner on my front foot to suck up a bit of volume and left in the masterfit tongue shim. I'll see how they feel tomorrow and then maybe I'll consider new liners.

Well, 2 runs on my TM2s and I remembered why I retired them to splitboarding only, I feel like I have to crank my ankle straps and they give me weird pressure points. I went back to my car and put my Photons on and everything was much better.

Last year I had a pair of Rome Libertine's replaced under warranty as one of the BOA cables got stuck inside the boot and I had to cut it to get out of the boot. My replacement pair is now giving me issues as well. The right boot is hard to release the boa cable at the end of the day. It feels like the cable is cutting into the plastic guide and I have to use a lot of force to pull it out. Anyone had similar issues and some potential fixes other than not tightening the boa laces?

They couldn’t have put his name in a more undesirable spot. The gaiter improves its look, for sure.
a bit of taper, a lot of camber

Fuck Yes! I have been waiting on this boot. Peeps I know in the industry have told me all about it, but first time laying eyes on it.

If he had Union make the fit similar to his DC boot, I will be all over that like Ho's on Santa.
