Booties for the low volume foot. Dipped boots?

[casa_mugrienta]

Anyone have this issue?

I have tried unsuccessfully buying them too small with no luck.

I am wondering if dipped boots help retain shape through the duration of the session?

Dipped boots may do a better job. For boots that have good length but feel too wide or blow up you can wrap them not quite tight with duct tape a couple times around the wide part of your foot. Usually do this with half the width of the tape roll. They won't blow up like they were and you can still take them on and off if done right. They'll last a long time that way without having to re-tape.

Had 2 dudes come in the shop the other day, both size 9, one weighed 150 and the other 250. Guess which one had feet that didn't look they've been pushing cars to the rock quarry.

No it's not.

Very common in the skiing world where it is used to size boots, and anywhere your feet are important.

I have to lace up every shoe like a combat boot or my foot moves around.

Try some Vibrams - Know a guy who swears by them - I use them at the gym seems like they would work

My experience with dipped boots was not good. They seemed very fragile. Maybe not an issue for everyone but I have to hike down trails and across reefs to get to some spots. I probably have a low volume foot as well and I usually go down a size depending on the brand. Xcel makes half sizes in some boots so i go 10.5 which are snug but not painful and break in nicely.

Hotline booties with the forefoot strap..actually any booties with a decent forefoot strap will take up the 'slack.'

Aye i think a strap is a must. Another reason most dipped boots suck.

This.
I have fairly wide feet.
I've always been afraid of buying booties with no straps.

I always figured booties just have to be fresh.

Once the elasticity of the neoprene goes they all ballon up.

Dipped boots are great but they don't hold up well.

Try Sollite, they have custom fit booties. Add boiling hot water, rinse, then wear for a few minutes while they conform to your feet. I love my three pairs.

I did.

Pre hot water, one size down had my big toe scrunching - was told this should not be the case

And my normal shoe size was like a normal boot.

I prob need a half size and they don't make em.

Would you kindly direct us to your OnlyFans feet pic page so we can properly evaluate how to advise you?

Any boot with velcro straps across the foot should do it.

Had a similar experience with the Solites, sized down as recommended and did the hot water molding and they scrunched my toes and had to give them to a friend. Seemed like nice boots but not going to drop another $120 on a pair.

Those Oneill Ninjas were the least warm booties I've ever worn. You might as well not wear booties for all the warmth they provide.
