This may be an absolutely stupid question but does anyone have opinions on what looks better? The FT Drop kick pro Beige or Black? Or just what FT boot to get in general for all mountain but more one the freestyle side. I would say mostly freestyle.

Black is Limited and I cannot make a decision to save my life. Maybe not the right thing to ask but whatever.

In my personal opinion black ski boots don't look great, I've been stuck with mine for a while. Get whatever you think looks better.

Yeah that would probably help. I don't have a picture for everything though.

Line chronics
Black marker Griffin 13 ID
Black Snowpants

Saga Floral Sweatshirt
A Sticker bombed helmet
and Smith I/O Mag Black with green lenses.

Probably more than you needed but that is all of it.

I couldn't make the images smaller so that is what you have to go off of. Idk if this will help much.

hi pal it might be an idea to first think of how a big clunky piece of plastic is gonna fit and feel on your foot before getting onto how it looks. If my bright pink and turquoise My Little Pony boots fit my foot like a dream you bet i’m wearing them over the dripped out B&E Full Tilts that don’t work for my feet.

It was simply a question, I was not looking a defined answer. I have used the pros, though I do plan on trying them on anyway to be sure I am making the right choice. I had done some research and it isn't based off looks. I just thought that I would ask mostly just to see what other people thought. If I only cared about looks I would be buying the B&Es right now.

Though, thank you for your input I will make sure to buy the boot for functionality not looks.

I do realize that I might've given off the wrong question in the beginning. I was just looking for any thing to check out not to go waste money because some guy on the internet told me so. I worded it very poorly I would say.

It’s great you’ve done research and actually consider the functionality, already doing a lot better than lots of people who ask the same questions. Do make sure you try them on as literally no one on here know what your foots like except you.

If it was me choosing I would go with the black, the white FT stands out well. It really does come down to what you do and don’t like.

Thank you for your input and I will make sure I actually try them on. It would suck to get stuck with a boot you hate after you just spent an absurd amount of money on them. I would rather that not happen, so I will probably be surfing forums and running to stores to find the right thing for me.

Skied the black Dropkick shell from 19-20 season with the Dropkick Pro liner before changing to ZipFit liners. FT announced their death as a brand and at the time there was serious uncertainty about the K2 branded line up, so I bought the 22 Dropkick Pros just to make sure I get to ski the boot I want in the future as well

Long story short; I've got both, both are dope. Been thinking should I rock them black on the other foot and beige on the other 🤷

The beiges are too fucking sick in person. You could build a whole kit around them, or let them clash with what you already got.
