It all depends which of the two will fit your foot. The boater has the influence shell (which has a last of 102mm) and the Drop Kick has the classic shell (Which has a last of 98mm)

So if you have a narrow foot, get the drop kick but if you have a wider foot, get the Booter

Hope that helps.

so, there is no possibility that the two fit the same ?

And what about the other specs ?
I guess they don't sell the Drop Kick 60$ more than the Booter just because of the wider shell.

+k for actually explaining WHY to go to a bootfitter rather than just commanding like every single person in every single thread does!

Same here, if you have wide feet get booters if you have narrow feet get drop kicks, simple as that.

At 699$, i think the Full tilt are more affordable than those....

Well, I'll see that tomorrow when I'll go to the store. If I need a wider boot fit and etc.
I'll let you guys know

Thanks :P

yea the krypton pros are the highest price boot in the line, but the krypton rampage is almost exactly the same boot, and you have the choice between the intuition liner or the traditional that that goes for around 400$
