So my wife’s got a 24.5 mondo and an 88 last, I don’t see any boots that small, last wise, obviously can’t go see a fitter and it’s not urgent rn, but was gonna get her boots and was looking at what’s out there, what are people doing in this situation, she’s a little tall for a kids boot tho that would be funny to me at least

What's the narrowest last you've found? Keep in mind the last measurements are for a 26 shell and the 24 will be a few mm narrower.

Everything else was 96+, which is maybe fine idk

If you're looking at 96 or 97 that measurement may be 92-93 in a 24 shell, custom footed, a little extra padding, boom no problem!

How many days a year does she ski? Is she looking for a fit that has zero movement or is she just looking to be warm & comfortable? If she doesn't ski that much, doesn't come from a racing background, isn't looking for zero movement, then don't put her in race boots unless other options don't work.

Chance are that a commercial, low-volume "98mm" lasted boots combined with custom footbeds will be fine for her. If those are too sloppy, I would go down the road of getting a foam injected liner before putting her in race boots.
