What a lot of people don't know about full tilts is that they have the thickness of a race plug boot. This means the boot shell is actually thicker than most boots, making them much more customizable, and wider if needed, if they were brought to a boot fitter.

I have a super wide forefoot and I ended up getting SPK's.

But my bootfitter had me try on Full Tilts too. He said that he could make me some footbeds, blow the shell out and all would be fine. The only problem was that my heel didn't feel secure at all in the Full Tilts. Hence the decision to buy SPK's.

Don't ask NS. Just go to a good bootfitter. They'll know much more about what boots will fit your width foot than most kids on here ever will, especially because we've never seen your foot.

Only a few models have a liner that is a few mm thinner, the shells are all the same.

Atomic high rollas, they have a nice and wide snug fit with a high instep.

check out the nordica hot rod 85 boot, its a 102 mm last, its the same as the old nordica beast boot which was one of the best selling boots, the only difference now, is now its a dual mold boot, compared to the beast which was a mono mold boot, check it out, it fits a large majority of people.

if i went for a nordica, it would be the nordica superchargers. they are more for freestyle and have a nice wide last. they also hace a pretty forgiving "shock absorber" like the spk's

I would urge against the Full Tilts just because of how narrow they are.  Yes, you CAN widen them a bit, but they just won't be as comfortable as a pair that fits you well to start off, plus it's a lot of precision work.  Just go to a boot fitter and he will have you try on a bunch of different boots.  Pick the one that feels the best to start off and it will feel like a slipper when the boot fitter is done with them.
