So i have the problem that i have a giant foot, and it's really hard to find some good skiboots in my size.
I ride park mostly but cant find any park boot in my size, i use 48 in European size (14 in us), i've tried daleboots for two seasons but broke them after 4 weeks of skiing and i'm really tired of riding with heavy alpine boots or freeride boots.
Anyone who can help me?

First. Go to your local ski shop and get fitted. A proper fitting boot will do wonders for your skiing.  Start checking out companies with wider lasts as well (full tilt, nordica, and salomon are the first ones that come to mind for 102mm lasts....someone makes a 104).  Get on it soon though!

they make 2 styles with a 102mm last which is generally for a wider foot.  he didn't say much else besides that he had a giant foot so i thought i would help him out by throwing some companies around.

By "giant foot" are you just referring to the length of your foot, or the width too? because width (A, B, C, D, etc) is determined by length, meaning if your foot 4 inches wide but a size 10 length it will be considered wider than a foot that is 4 inches wide but a 12 length.

Far often than not, feet that long are not wide. And honestly, just get what fits- especially you. You have so few options in that length that finding the right "style" of boot is near impossible.

^ this....yeah I'd almost say that when ya do find a boot that's big enough get all the bells and whistles too cause I doubt you'd wanna go through finding boots again anytime soon.....maybe even an injection liner?.....but dude try callin a boot company and see if they can do something for ya.....I remember a friend of a friend back in the day who had a thing with I think Lange, where he custom ordered his boots for his big feet.
