fellow skiers,
So this year I am treating myself to a new pair of full tilt ski boots. Currently I am stuck between the black drop kicks, the b and e boots, and the tom wallisch pro model ski boots. If you guys could help me with which boot you like the best and why than that would help me out in my descision. Thank You for your time

Go to a boot fitter your feet might not even fit in full tilts and you could get a lot of pain there could be boots that fit you way better out there just let the bootfitter do his job and find you some boots

First off, go see a boot fitter and get fitted to a proper boot. You can do that right now even, shell sizes didn't change between now and next year.

Second off, Drop Kick and B&E are pretty much the same boot. Just different colours and probably tongue stiffness (don't quote me on it).

Thirdly, the T-Wall boot will be much better as for durability. Wider track buckles (which apparently solved the buckles breaking problem), plus replaceable soles for when you wear them down.



So it comes down to what you're willing to buy. Given you fit a Full Tilt, you can choose a boot that will last you a long time and has more features into it. Or you can buy a price point boot that'll have cheaper parts and more likely to wear out faster.

Your call

this. Just go to a boot fitter and find what is right for you. Not every one can fit in full tilts

The t-wall is the best quality boot with the replaceable bottoms.

What boot do you have now? Your profile says you're using Hot Doggers.
If that's the case, than do you need any sort of justification when it comes to buying a new boot?

Do any of them even fucking fit your foot? Have you gone to a boot fitter? Have you researched other options? Don't rely on Heat Molding them immediately, use it as a last resort, when they start to get smaller, towards your last few seasons in them.

The real question is, do you just like how Full Tilt's look, or are they the right fit for you, if its the latter, then go to a boot fitter. If it's the former, go to the boot fitter anyways. Seriously, these threads are to numerous, and my meter sky-rockets every time I read one.

god at least get your shit right if you are gonna try to correct somebody. the whole point of the intuition liners is to heat mold them so they fit to your feet. they should always be molded to your feet when you first buy them

also to everybody creating a shitstorm over this thread, it seems like he already uses full tilts, and they work for him, and he just wants a new pair next year. maybe his toes are too worn out or his liners are packed out and instead of replacing just the liners, he just wants all new boots.

op, its all your opinion on what you want. i would just recommend checking that the twalls fit your feet because they have a slightly wider toe box than the other two

You are an idiot. No, you don't want to heat mold them right off the bat, because further down the road when they start to get tighter on your foot, heat molding them will give you extra room all around. So when you attempt to correct someone who is right, feel free to at least make accurate statements. If they don't fit when you first put them on, buying them, and then heat molding them is one of the stupidest things you can do.

Well when you size down for a performance fit, It will fit too tight without molding the Liner.

Boots dont get tighter down the road, are you dumb? does a pussy get tighter from fucken it more? How would your boot get tighter from use? Stupid.
