Heat Molding LF Shanes

(cwb_fooguitarlz)

Has anyone heat molded their Shanes at home?

If so, how does it work?

Thanks in advance.

I used the hot water shower in my boat, just heated them up before I rode each time and that also worked pretty good. I have short wide feet so still working on the width a bit.

i filled a huge pot of water and just about had it boiling. I put one in at a time for 30 sec took it out let it cool for a few seconds and then put it on and puled them tight, it worked perfect. The pro shop i bought them from said thats how they do it but i was in a hurry to get out that day so i did it myself later that night

Hey Moe

That makes me think of Curlie boiling his shoes.

Jeff I tried on the same size '07 watson and '07 shane and my toes hit the front of the shanes but not the watson.

Chris
I did before I "wore them in the tub"
now they seem fine, but haven't ridden for any length of time.....took a hard fall Saturday trying my first toeside 360
was pretty sore Sunday....so my sets were real short
