If you can get them in your boot and get your foot in without baking them then your shell is waaayyyy too big. Short answer is above and shorter still is yes.
It's not so much the model year, it's the high mileage or meterage to keep the youth of Canada happy

I started out the season on a new pair, fitter suggested I try them without baking since I could get in - barely. I have the skinniest of skinny feet.
4 runs, foot pain like no other. Ever.
Baked 'em and they felt perfect, still unreasonably tight, but pain was more as expected from a new boot.
My two: definitely bake 'em.
