Which would be a better boot to buy?The Salomon SPK Kaos or the Full Tilt Booter. I know they are both very different fits, i just want to know which would be a better buy. I plan on doing mostly park, and just as much powder. Help me out with this.

You can't ask people which would be better to buy. You should worry about which boots fit you and only you. If you buy on a recommendation instead of how they feel on your own feet, you are asking for trouble. Go to a store and speak with a bootfitter and try on MORE than just the boot you want to buy. Find something with a flex you like and it should all work out. If the boot tech is really on his game, he might be able to suggest a few modifications to make a boot perfect for you.
Bottom line, you JUST need to try stuff on. Everybody's feet are different, and if your feet are not happy skiing, you REALLY are not happy. Best o' luck.

They are 8mm different in width. There is no way you would be in a position where both boots fit properly and you could choose between them

I know they don't fit the same, i just wanted to know the difference between the boots, none of the boot fitters around here have anything out so i could try out, im waiting until later in the fall, im trying to get some research done, pros and cons on each boot

dude, shut the hell up. u cant tell him one boot is better.
dont ask which boot is better, go to ur local shop whenever they have boots, tell the boot fitter what kind of flex you want and he will look at your feet and suggest certain boots for you. try on as many boots as you can before bying

I hate my full tilts..well they fit my foot very good but they are so soft that I go right through them when I land switch. they are also very unstable but maybe not all full tilt are like that I donno.

you should change the tongue for a stiffer one.

lets just say they both fit you well, get the Full Tilt its a much better investment considering you can get some new tongues and change the flex...

FT is the better boot by leaps and bounds.
But the only thing that matters is if they fit your foot.
