These boots are impressive. I was moving to these from a Dynafit Titan. Not only did these boots ski better than my Titans, but they are nearly a pound lighter....PER BOOT!
Unfortunately for me I got the wrong size and think it will take a bit of work to make this boot comfortable for me. I should have been smart enough to realize that at home but it took a half day of skiing before I realized it.
These boots have been skied 3 runs. One short 1500' backcountry lap and two inbounds laps at Snowbird. They look brand new. In the second picture you can see a tiny scuff where my inside boots rubbed together. Other than that I could probably pass these off as "new".
The liners were never heat molded and I had no work done on the boots.
I am including everything that comes with a new boot: insoles, footbeds, tools, manuals, original box.
$480 shipped anywhere in the CONUS. No dibs until you've sent funds.

If you haven't molded them yet and the shell fit is correct, you have no idea if they fit or not. Molding an Intuition is required, not optional.

Yeah, I thought about molding them to see if it improved the fit. The shell fit is perfect length-wise. The issue is that my foot is very high volume near the arch and the boots aren't super comfortable for me there. Hoping to switch to the Mercury as it seems to fit my foot shape a little bit better.

I agree on molding it. Doesn't help to increase volume much but does when decreasing. Pad the pressure spot and crank the shit out of them while leaning into the cuff.

That very reason is why I got Cochises. The Maestrales are just a little tight there.
