Re: My Ski History by anemic
XCD Progress Report Boots I wear my new vintage Merrell leathers at my desk all day. They feel great on my feet. VERY comfortable! I found them right here in the forums.

My Ski History by anemic
Allow me to share my story with you because you may enjoy reading it. Thank you. I have enjoyed this site for years; I love the XCD focus. You've taught me so much! Yet, I have never tele'd!
