Full Tilt Boots

I have heard many great things about these boots.  However, it is very frustrating how few stores carry them.  I have a few questions.  First, how narrow is the fit?  Like extremely narrow, or just not great for wide feet?  How long do they run? (ex: SPK 29 shell is a good amount bigger than your standard 29). I also know they are expanding their line for next year, what boot/tongue/shell (im not really sure how that works) would be best for a backcountry/pow/all mountain skier to be shared between my hellbents and seths?

Ced, I believe you are riding full tilts now? Anything to add?

They go by shoe size not mondo. Narrow but not super narrow. Very easy to work on them.

I have Flexon's(the OG fill tilt's) and i love em. They seem to be a little less narrow than my old Rampages.

I rode some old scool flexon untill I broke tehm while waiting for my full tilt to arrive. I got mine in one size too big and riding my size is pretty much pushing it as farasshell fit goes since I've got tiny feet.


I wouldnt say they are that narrow but you have to try them on to make sure. I've seen various comments about how narrow they are and never had any problem myself with a semi-wide foot with skinny heel. The fact that they come with intuition liners makes it a lot easier to work with for minor modification since the liner can be paper thin in some spots.

That being said, I heard a lot of good comments about how easy they are to work with from riders who got their FT fitted and punched in some places. I believe there will be a lot more ful tilts available net year since they pretty much sold everything they had last season and that ski shop will prolly jump on the bandwagon.
