High rise/Narrow foot

So for a few hours today I've been going around to different boot fitters trying on different boots. What I have learned is that I have a narrow foot with a high rise. That means it cancels out Full Tilts, SPK's and Dalbello boots (I tried on all of them anyways). The only boots the shops recommend are around $700 and I cannot afford them. Any suggestions? I have a size 26.5 foot if that helps.

The unfortunate thing for you is that narrow boots aren't cheap (except for some Full Tilts, which probably won't work well for you anyway).   You actually might have luck with some of Rossignol's boots, specifically the Sensor3 series.

I mostly ski park but as soon as it snows I'm doing big mountain. So I don't want too stiff of a boot

Listen to this guys advice from what he has posted tonight he really knows what he is talking about. Also if there is a good boot fitter near you i advise you to go to them because we cant see your foot.

get some good high rise foot beds in them, thats key. rip out that little piece of shit thin rubber that comes with them, and if they are heat mouldable, make sure you have those in then you get them fitted
