Many, many years ago I bought a pair of cross country skis which were sold to me as "hybrids", that is, one could ski them both "classic" and "skate" lenght was also such to accomodate both techniques. As all compromises, of course, those weren't performing great at either, still, for someone going to ski cross country for leisure level, that was good enough.
Shoes/boots, from Salomon, were also hybrid, e.g those shoes had the possibility to have the cuff removed so to be able to ski "classic" or to leave it on to skate.
Now, given my present predicament, might be worth to resume a bit of cross country skiing since I still have the skis...Alas, the shoes/boots are nowhere to be found...
Looked high and low at nearby shops without finiding a similar model, shoes appears to be now, "either" / "or". Is it so? What shoe/boot model could I be looking at to replace the lost ones?
