if you buy full tilts you will immediately be the best skier on the mountain.
but for reals, this has been said a billion times, but GO TO A SHOP AND ACTUALLY TRY ON THESE BOOTS. new skiers (im assuming this includes you, no offense) always see wammy tallnutz in hotdoggers or bobby in spks and immediatly think they have to be the best boots in the world. i have tried on many boots at shops, and from what i have noticed salomon, and FT are all for people that have relatively wide feet. it just so happens that my foot fits best in wider boots, so FTs and SPKs are perfect for me. but that doesnt mean you will find the same, so definitely try on the boots so you know what youre getting before you buy.
