GO TO A BOOTFITTER. HAVE THEM LOOK AT YOUR FEET. TRY THE BOOT ON. MAKE SURE IT FITS. IF IT DOESN'T FIT THEN BUY SOMETHING ELSE.

FULL TILT BOOTS ARE NOT THE ANSWER TO EVERYTHING. IF THEY DON'T FIT YOUR FEET THEY WILL NOT BE FUN.

^^^^ this is true go to a boot fitter. but i got them this year and it was one of the best investments ive made. i used to get shin bang almost everyday last year and this year i havent gotten it once, they are super warm and comfy and all around a great boot.

I got shinbang in my Full Tilts, but I was skiing 6 days in a row. The inch of rubber in the heel really helps.

Thanks for the info. I cased a jump fucking hard and now I can hardly walk on my foot/heel. I want to get some foots that will atleast cushion the impacts a little bit.

btw my post wasn't supposed to be mean, just firm. these threads are everywhere and SPKs, FTs, and dalbellos are all great but they won't do jack shit if they don't fit your feet.

Ski boots are like the glass slipper in Cinderella. No matter how much you want the boot to fit, if it won't work with your foot, it won't work.

go get your foot fitted to the boot, and dont go with the boot just becasue you like the way it looks, not a good idea, many unhappy days if it does not fit right.
