Widest boots?

[hbjerre]

So - i have been riding the spk pro for 3 years now, but want to change for something hopefully better. I have a very wide foot (105mm). What are the widest freeski boots on the market ? Just to know what to try?

 

[spkillah]

Try spk's, but go to a bootfitter

 

[J.S.]

Salomons are pretty much the widest unless you get custom boots like Dale Boots. If the spk was working why would you get something else?

 

[doGelyst]

Widest SPKs go is 104mm. Tecnica HVL boots go to 106mm.

 

[AJizzle]

This technica Phoenix hvl, 100 flex. it will only work if you have a huge instep though.

Its worth pointing out the SPK is by no means the biggest boot salomon make. The mission range fit bigger and even the impacts dont feel as tight as the SPK's this year. Atomic make some good wide boots, as do head, dalbello and infact most brands other then full tilt. Dont get stuck into thinking you need a freestyle boot, a well fitting all mountain boot will be better then a badly fitting freestyle boot.

atomic overload. forefoot stretches from 102-106mm with the live fit panels, and the rest of the boot isnt a bucket like most other boots. good fit for wide feet and an awesome park boot.

SPK's fer sure, but the Booters from full tilt are made for a wider foot.

 

[DIX~]

Only 102mm if I'm not mistaken, which isn't very wide

Obvious solution here is to cut off a slice of your foot

 

[Jibbin_Ur_Face]

Ohh didnt read the 105mm part my bad.

Dalbello Boss has a 105mm width, with 103mm liner width. I bought the blenders a couple years ago at 103mm width, which is pretty much the same boot, because I have crazy bone growths on my feet and they've been the best boots I've ever had. I'd highly suggest Dalbello.

I get a lot of shinbang in my spk pro's... Will it help a lot to go to the normal spk with the lower flex?

 

[doGelyst]

wish I could, haha.

Even with the 106mm width tecnica......I still have to get the shells punched.

 

[AJizzle]

I've always thought that someone should make a 106 mm plug boot for huge footed bastards like ur self. Just give us a ton of plastic to work with, so we can get the fit insanely dialed

 

[onenerdykid]

The Tecnica is not a 106mm shell- it's a 102mm shell with a thinner liner so it "feels" like 106. It's why they say it has a HVL liner... not shell.

 

[tomPietrowski]

Proberbly not no. its possible the Pro is too stiff and thats causing some of the shin bang, but there are so many other reasons it could be. Best advice would be take your current boots to a decent boot fitter. Have him asses the fit and Im pretty sure he will be able to tell you why your getting shinbang. It may be possible to refit your current boots or he will be able to advise what would fit far better then anyone can on here.

 

[doGelyst]

so would I be happy with a SPK @ 104mm shell?

 

[AJizzle]

if it seems to fit right when you try it on, and you have a relatively low instep for the width of ur foot then yes

 

[doGelyst]

only one way to find out! cept I gotta wait till christmas to actually get new boots :/
