I have Konflicts. Just got them this year, love them. Lightest boot ever. Period. 
Don't know about breaking, but so far so good. Was sweet to have them heat molded too. Very warm boots.
So far I'm a huge fan of Full Tilt.

I wear a 12-13 size shoe and I got the FT's in a 29.5 I believe. don't know if that helps or not.

Ok, thanks, im stuck between 28.5 and 29... how bad is it to be a little small opposed to a little big?

this goes for any boot. a smaller shell can be made larger, but a larger shell can never be made smaller.

as for the konflicts, i got them and they are sick! so light, but responsive too. i wear a 9 or 10 shoe and got a size 26. perfect size after grinding out the protrusions that stick out around the screws.

Yeah same here. Agree with everything you said for sure. Can't understate the performance of having them heat molded... Makes quite a bit of difference for sure.

those are two very different boots. do some research before you make your choice.

Not really, the only main differences are the liners and the tongues, which are interchangeable.

Alright, well I just got my Booters in the mail today and I love them... They're such a light boot, flexy, and the most comfy boot I've ever worn. You can't go wrong with FT, but make sure your feet are narrow and not wide. FT is known to fit narrow footed people and my feet are pretty narrow so my Booters fit perfectly. I haven't gotten my liners heat molded yet, but I plan on doing it eventually. I hope what I said helped.

ok they're not "very different" but the liner and tongue are essentially the whole boot. also the booter has a thinner liner so the konflict with have a lower volume fit. small things yes, but if you want the perfect boot do all the research you can before you drop those bills.
