I need new boots and I am interested in some Full Tilts. I live in a tiny town and getting boots fitted right now isn't really an option. I'm thinking of doing what I shouldn't and buying online. I took some pictures of my feet and traced them on graph paper in hopes that you guys can give me some guidance on what size would be good, and if full tilts will fit my foot type.

Here's the tracing:

And here's some gross pictures of my feet:

Any guidance at all is super helpful. I'm clueless, guide me.

Top view of your foot isn't everything.. if you really want to know which boot to buy, you gotta have some pictures of your arch, top of the foot, tell us if you have a wide foot (nothing really to compare your foot to in those pictures) how wide your ankle is, etc. All of those play a big factor in how you will fit into various brands. Its rough not going and actually trying on boots..

Im not really sure why type of foot I have but If I had to say I think I'm on the narrow side of things (widest part of foot is about 9cm's)

My ankle is about 6cm's

And here is some arch shots:

the last on FTs is 98 mm if I'm not mistaken, 9cm = 90mm, and your ankles aren't very wide either. i hate giving boot advice on the internet but for straight up fit you should be fine. depending on the arch and shit you might need custom insoles but most people i know just ride with the intuition liner and no insole. as for size.. that's tougher..

wear your shoes that have the tightest fit on your, but aren't too small. closey look over your foot and take note of where your foot shows signs of redness, also take a picture of your arch as well. pm me when you got this done and i can help you out on which boot profile you should have.

this thread made me lol. kid, I strongly recomend making a trip to a bootfitter rather than NS. ha. if you got the dough spend it on the custom footbeds, then any boot will be much better, and even better if the boot already fit right.

good luck.

^^ Oh, and incvest in a n intuition liner, they pretty much make any boot 10x better than it origionally was. Most higher end dalbellos and full tilts come with intuition stock.
