dont put them on 12, i have heard that maxing out a binding can make it not work properly/wont last as long, DIN 11 is you best option

Its really easy, this chart is old but there all relatively the same.

find your weight and height find the letter that corresponds with them take the letter closest to the top (A)

say you’re a J in youre a beginner stay at j, intermediate k, expert l just move down the chart 1 for int 2 for exp

slid over until you reach your boot size in bsl

if youre over 50 and under 10 move up one letter, dough it applies to you though

youre not supost to or allowed without consent if you work at a shop but if youre still popping out slide over one bsl size

If you have to ask, go to a shop. Guessing on your din is going to get you hurt. Learn how to read a din chart and adjust it according to that. You also need to be aware of forward pressure.
