I noticed on multiple sites that full tilts don't go up to size 13. I wear a size 13 and would be weary of buying anything smaller. How do these boots fit? Also, I have really large calf muscles. Is there a model that's built for bigger legs? I'm looking at the Tom Wallisch models.

I went to my local shop and got them properly fitted to see what sizes for which companies would fit. I'd recommend doing this.

Yup this. I wear 11s on the street but my 27.5 boots fit like heaven, although according to charts I should be a size bigger.

Sometimes it feels like my feet are the only ones on this site that are matched to my boot size. I wear a 10.5 and was fitted to a 28.5.

OP go see a bootfitter. Don't be that kid that buys Full Tilts to look cool.

that's why I'm asking all this. believe me if the full tilts aren't comfortable on my feet I won't get them. A few of my friends have them and they all say they're worth the money. I just figured since i've been actually starting to go for bigger things in the park i'd get a nice pair of boots.

Not to be an ass, but don't even ask for a specific brand or anything. Let the bootfitter determine what will be best based on your measurements. If anything go in with a blindfold so that there's no brand bias
