Well my old boots afrnt doing it for me and im in the market for a new pair but i dont want some shitty boots that hurt my feet, i want THE comfiest boots out there. Ive heard allot about full tilts but have no first hand exp with um but ive had my eye on the hot doggers for awhile. I ride 95% park so i dont want an all mountain boot i want somthing thats park specific or ledgit in the park so SPK's are starting to intrest me. Dalbello has some nice shit too but havnt been looking at there stuff very much.

So if anyone has knowledge to share on the subject of comfy boots that slay the park, help a brother with sore feet out!
 
comfiest boots are the ones that fit the shape of your foot the closest.

DO NOT limit yourself to full tilt and SPKs, they both fit quite differently.

NO ONE on this site can tell you what boots to buy, you have to go to a reputable boot fitter and see what they have to say about your feet.
 
DO go to a bootfitter that will gurranty, and will do bootwork on the liner or shell. Also consider custom footbeds, they often make a huge improvement.
 
I personally love my SPKs..... I can honestly say they have never given me shin bang, nor have my toes or heels gotten busted up. All around, they have treated me well. I'll probably never switch to anything else. That being said, I would go try some on and make sure they give ya a good fit

Never had full-tilts.....
 
YOU ARE LOOKING AT TWO VERY DIFFERENT BOOTS.

YOU ARE LOOKING FOR BOOTS THE WRONG WAY.

GO TO A SHOP AND GET SOMETHING THAT FITS YOUR FEET.

 
This is stupid. Full Tilts are waaay different than SPK's.
I'll say it again. Bootfitter.
 
its been said many times in this thread but it def needs to be said again. we cant fit your feet and tell you what boot is the best, a bootfitter can.
 
theres no full tilt dealers anywheres near here so your gonna have trouble getting fitted to them, but you can take mine for a rip next time im if theyre the right size

The one that fits is what you should get, dont buy anything without wearing it for a while. Ive been wearing dalbellos for quite some time now, when i initially went in to get fitted i had never heard of them before but they fit great so thats what ive been using for the past 3 pairs.
 
As everyone's been saying, go to a boot fitter. Period.

If you decide that the SPK's are for you, be prepared for the most gnarly break in process ever.

And SPK's pack out like 2 sizes, More than any other boot IMO. Just a heads up.
 
ive heard good things about both. But i have some full tilts and they are amazing, i would go with FT
 
Bootfitter for sure. If Dalbellos fit you, I recommend highly, you feel no impact through the boot no matter how hard the snow is or how badly you knuckle anything. Sick
 
that would be sick fezz.

the problem about a boot fitter around where I live is a problem. theres two local shops and they both are pretty much against freestyle, one shop was tryin to get my friend to mount his invaders atleast 3cm back and the other shop is all about teli shit...so there really isnt any local suport from shops. I would love to test abunch of boots to see what fits best but the shops wouldnt stock anything i would even consider buying. I tried on some retro fulltilts with the boost liner and liked um, reall light and held my feet well and with the heat mouldable insoles in the doggers and becoming even more apealing. and for the spk's shin bang is shitty and after asking aroung i herd its quite the problem.

public enemy once told me "dont beleive the hype" but is the hype around full tilts deserved, first hand exp from a dogger owner would be the best advice i could get now
 
If you tried on full tilts and liked them then why the fuck do you think SPK's will work for you?
 
more like 3 sizes

i bought them a size small and now after 3 years (about 320 days) i have 5 footbeds in them to take up all the space.
 
I will tell you something my friend. I have BOTH believe it or not.

SPK pros

and

Hot Doggers!

SPKs were free, but i ski with the dogger because it fits tighter and i hate to have even the least bit of wiggle room in boots. both are the same size. that being said, you and i, have probably got different shaped feet. And yes spks pack out, but so do tilts, so does every other boot on the market.

try it on. end of discussion. Stop looking at what others are wearing to find YOUR boot. who knows, you might end up with a baby blue lange world cup, maybe.

peace
