WhitSmartI've worked with Dalbello boots my whole life. At the beginning of last year, I gave in and bought Full Tilt Plush 4s. Anyone who knows me knows that my feet are tricky. I had a bone removed in the top of my foot last year and was riding around in these boots in a matter of weeks with no pain at all. That's how comfy these boots are. They're great in just about any time of skiing.
I would definitely at least try this pair on if you're in the market for new boots.
NinskasiIt is completely all about how it feels. I have narrow, super tiny feet so women's boots fit my foot a lot better. If you are ordering online, try to find a shop where you can try on women's vs men's.
CyanicenineIf you have small narrow feet you might want to look into race boots. My feet are 97mm wide and 230mm long. Every size 23 or 22 women's boot I've tried on, even the narrow ones were way too large. I actually need a 22 even though I measure 23 because I want a performance fit. This makes things even more difficult because most 22's are just 23 shells with fluffier liner thrown in there.
NinskasiI actually have size 23 Full Tilts with heat molded liners ( I normally wear a 22) and then got custom foot beds with boot heaters cause I have shit circulation and it can be 40 degrees out and my feet are frozen! But anyways they fit perfectly now!
CyanicenineIt took me years and half a dozen boot fitters till I was able to find a boot that worked for me. Glad to hear you are happy with yours, custom footbeds are a game changer. Did you size up in order to fit those heaters in there? I thought about getting those, but they're expensive and I don't think I have enough space to put anything in my boots.
