shoe size to boot size

[chase]

What's the difference between your shoe size and your ski boot size?

I"m a size 11 street-shoe and a size 9 boot size so 2

 

[Hawkshot99]

Used to wear a 10.5 shoe. But After learning to size boots I switched my shoe sizes.

Now both are a 9.

I wear a size 13 in sneakers (New Balance / Nike)
My ski boots are a size 29.5

I wear size 10 womens shoes (Mens 9) and 25.0 mondo (which is size 8 womens, supposedly, Mens 7). Whomever thought up those conversions is nuts. I had 26.0 mondo boots before which were way too big, but I didn't know any better at the time. I can't imagine wearing the size that the charts say I should. And I definitely don't wear shoes that are too big; if anything, I end up with some that are too small because I'm kind of in between sizes but there usually is no size 10.5 for women.

I wear size 12 shoes and fit into a 28.0 ski boot, which is supposedly a size 10. I was in a 29.5, which is way too big.

26.0 or size 8 boots.

11/11.5 street shoe - 27/27.5 ski boot...for what its worth, there is essentially no difference in half sizes in ski boots...a 27/27.5 are the same shell, same liner, only diff is the thickness of the factory insole which you should trash and replace with a custom footbed or at least a trim to fit. The only co with a diff is salomon...the liner is different, the insole is the same...so if you're buying a salomon boot, go for the whole size, thicker liner...they'll pack out in a few days anyway.

Size 12 street shoe, really closer to 11.5, but I mostly go with 12s for comfort. Ski boots are 28.5 which is a 10.5. So just about down a size and a half. I've had 28s too.

Street shoe size 9.0/sneaker 9.5, boot size 25. Considered a 26 but I needed to fit to my smaller right foot.

Had some grinding done on the left side for length and some work on the right forefoot. Fit is snug but is comfortable once my arches relax in the footbeds.

Street shoes 12 to 12.5 depending on the toe box shape, ski boots are a 10 shell size.

I'm an 11 in street shoes and a 10 in ski boots..I could probably squeeze into a 9 but I'll take comfort over performance..

Street 9 - boot UK 6 which is USA 7 so 2.

 

[deadheadskier]

Street shoes 9-9.5

most recent ski boot purchase: 26.5

 

[prisnah]

street shoes are between a 9 and 10 depending on brand.
Boots, completely dependant on the manufacturer, no set size. current boots are 25.5 (i think, might be 26.5) Langes with a 298 bsl (this i am sure of).

I never even look at boot size. The first thing I do is yank the liner and put my foot in the shell. With my toes brushing the front of the shell, I want a finger-width of room. I use custom silicon injection liners so I can be less agressive with the shell than if you're using stock liners. I skied Langes with stock liners for many years and I got kind of tired of black toe.
