Boot help please?

[Sky.]

so i wear a size 10.5 shoe and i bought a pair of boots at 27.5 i was wondering if that was a good idea on my part i know that that sounds small but because of paking i didnt want them to be loose so any suggestions

 

[Balto]

please tell me you got fitted first

I wear a 10.5-11 shoes and I got fitted and my boots are a 25.5, and they feel pretty good on me.

27.5 is basically a 9.5 in us so your probly ok but you def want to go to a boot fitter before you ever buy boots. cause again there are 4 basic shells and with in that 12 different volume configurations so just gettin the length right does mean the boot will fit well. a good solution now is to use intuition liners on improperly fitted boots or full foam customs. hope this helps

thanks... i got fitted for the salomon kaos and they fit but i bought the kreations

 

[Mr.LemonPie]

all the spks fit the basically the same so assuming you bought the size they fit you in you should be good.

 

[jasontheredhead]

You may wanna brush up on your boot fitting skills.

I laughed.

I hope you aren't a bootfitter.

thanks alot for the help my only issue is that i dont have a bootfitter with a few hours drive i have a local ski/board shop but when i asked to get fitted for a boot they just gave me boots and had me put them on and say which one felt the best so i just left

 

[Silence]

Is there one at your mountain? You could call ahead and book in a time with them to get fit up for boots - that could be the best thing to do, and definitely worth time time and money
