all ski boots use standard mondo point sizing... As for fit, you would have to try them on urself

do that.

but. all manufacturers use mondo point measuring but seemingly different rulers. A FT 27.5 is different in actual size form a salomon 27.5 or even a nordica 27.5

Length isn't the problem its the shape of the shell of the boot within the width and instep that will be the biggest difference between FT and Nordica and the only way to tell if your foot will fit well into this boot is to

FT Boots size totally differently than any other brand. Be sure to check out the Boot Sole Lengths here to determine the right size for you.
