So i have quite large feet. like a size 13-14 or like 31+ ski boot size and the only ski boots i can ever get are like wholesale stiff ones at ski swaps. Does anybody know any companies who make very large ski park or freeski boots?
Thanks

o and yeah I already checked out full tilts so don't even bother

My brother wears like a size 13-14 and he was able to get Dalbello Rampages(? the green ones) punched and fitted into a 29.5.

same problem here dude. I'm a size 13-14 and I originally bought Rossi Scratches in a size 31.5 thinking that it just corresponds to my shoe size, but I was kinda wrong. And they were the only freestyle boots tat I could find in that size. Most companies stop at 29.5 for their freestyle models. So I never tried them or any other boots on before I bought these online, so when I got them I realized that they felt great at first, but I knew that after packing out and stuff that they'd end up being too big. So last season, after I got a job at a shop that sold Nordicas, I tried on an Ignition in a 30 and It fits great. PLus it's a wayyy nicer boot IMO. So you seriously have to try on boots before you buy them because now I am stuck with a brand new pair of Scratches. But yea try the Nordica Supercharger line or Rossi. Anyone want to buy my scratches??

Yeah I would try on different brands cause they all differ slightly. But the guy at the shop said that I, who has the same problem, could go down a couple sizes and he would just blow out the big toe part, which is mainly the problem area. Worked great and Im happy.

I wear a size 15, it really sucks trying to find boots. I'm not really looking forward to doing it next season.
