Boots for narrow feet?

I am thinking of buying a pair of "park" boots

I was considering foil or spk but they are said to be pretty wide and I have a pretty narrow feet

I own a pair of Lange CRL 90s and they fit just perfectly tight on my feet

Would the foils or spks be a good choice, or if not any suggestion?

Thanks ahead
 
yo man, i have some lange park boots im selling. size 26.5, if thats ur size they should be prime...look a few threads below u in my thread "new sale"
 
My feet are pretty narrow too, and I was trying to decide between the same two as you. I had my foot fitted to both at a nice ski shop and the Foil was a better choice for me. I used them about five times and I love them. Everybody will say something different, but for my narrow feet, I feel like the SPKs were too wide and my foot could move more than in the Foils.
 
I don't even know what the standard for 'narrow' feet is. Eitherway, I had a wider front, and a pretty small heel, according to the bootfitter in my shop.

I got fitted into Rampages, I tried on a bunch of other boots. Lange were really good too except I felt a bit loose in them..I never got to try on SPKs since the shop doesn't carry them, prolly a mistake by me but my Rampages fit amazing, so I assume I'll be swimming in the SPKs anyway
 
How can you honestly say that? You have no idea how narrow is feet are (particularly since everyone has their own idea of what 'narrow' really means), how high or flat his arch is, if he has a low instep or not, what size his heel is in relation to his forefoot...there are so many things that need to be looked at, not to mention trying on different boots for feel. Seriously, (to the creator) go to a fitter and tell him what you're looking for in a boot, get measured and all that, you'll be glad you did...nothing will ruin your day like a pair of boots that don't fit right and hurt your feet.
 
In general, I can say I have wider feet than most people. Likewise, Salomon fits me well since they tend to make their boots a little wider than normal. I would recommend going and getting fitted, yes, but if I was a shop tech and someone told me they had narrow feet, I would definitely get them some Dalbello's or Lange first.
 
im guessing your feet aren't as narrow as you think, cause salomons freeride boots are pretty wide, in fact, only if you get their race boots or the falcons (which are sick, get them if they fit, lightest boots i've ever felt) will you find a narrower fit.
 
like everyone else, go get fitted

although if you are looking for narrow dalbello is a good starting point
 
I would love to go get fitted at a shop but the problem is all the boots that I am interested in are GONE :(

but i found some available on an online store

so i was debating which one i should get

I could always wait for the new season but its just much, MUCH cheaper to buy now when it's almost off season

Anyways, thanks a lot for suggestions mates~!
 
wait for next season then, you have to get fitted, no way around it. you will be making a big mistake if you don't.

on the plus side next seasons boots are fairly similar to this seasons so you could go try 'em on and then order them online, I know that the regular spk's and dalbello krypton/rampages will be pretty much the same as this seasons.
 
most people, even this guy would go to a shop where he would get fitted...for suggestions since he says he has narrow feet, most people with narrow feet prefer dalbellos. salomons are generally for people with regular or wider feet. i said it as a general suggestion since no one in their right mind would jsut buy a boot without trying it on.
 
never seen a wide lange...i thought they only fit like 8% of the population or somethin like that....but in then end dont waste your time here and go get fitter by a bootfitter.itll be worth it to spend a lil extra
 
i too have a narrow foot. and personaly i found the foils and spk to fit my foot better than Lange or head. i find Lange or Head are to wide. so definitly consider some salomon boots!
