I just saw a thread over on TGR like this and though it would be a great idea.
This will help a lot when buying/researching boots online because MONDO sizes don't always match between companies.

Simply post your boots (including the size) and their BSL.

I'll start it off...


28.5 Lange Freestyle 80 - 328mm BSL
28.5 Full Tilt - 318mm BSL
29.5 Full Tilt - 326mm BSL
28.5 Salomon SPK - 327mm BSL

Sometimes they do.  A 25.5 is a pretty normal 293mm (295mm standard).  It's because they don't jump by 10mm, so after a few sizes it throws the normal size curve out the window.

No.  4 mm (difference between 26.5 sally and fulltilt) is not significant.  I stayed with a 26.5 during my transition from sollys to FTs.

like somebody said above. once you start getting into bigger sizes (28/29/30) the gap between full tilts and other boots gets larger
