DO NOT boot to anywhere. What you need to do is actually go into a store that sells them. Try it with the help of the sales person. Better outdoor stores usually have a staff member to sell (or few) who are trained in boot fitting. Most stores and shops REI EMS have qualified citizens. Independent craft shops also usually have staff who have training and start editing.

An installer starts properly trained will be able to help you make adjustments using blocks, wedges, and lacing techniques to adapt to the custom of the boot. In addition, a store usually has a performance shoe size you are looking for and alternatives if you are looking for specific boot does not work for you. According to the last, width, volume, etc. of the shoe, the shoe LaSportiva may not be the best start for you.

If you do mail order and the shoe does not fit, you will be harassed with the process of returning the boot or end up taking it to a boot fitter at the end anyway, so just to avoid the hassle from the start and do it right the first time.

I was an avid hiker since 1986 and have been involved in hiking and climbing instruction since 1993. I was a mountain guide for a NOLS course-as well as in the Rockies. I was also involved in flea markets and accessories for many years. Your boots are your foundation for your entire experience. Go to a store with trained staff and that this is done the right way from the get-go!
