  • Answer:

    You should be able to. I'm also size 13 shoe and i ride with a size 12 Burton Sean White Boot. Be careful buying used boots because snowboard boots have a memory foam in them to mold to a persons foor to ensure that there is a snug and perfect fit. Ask the person selling it if you can try the boot on first and it should fit you pretty well. I recommend that when you get them, put them in a dryer for 15 minutes on medium to high heat, and then immeadiatly put them on tightening the laces as if you were about to go out on the slopes. The high heat activates the memory foam in the boots and they will then mold to your feet. Waslk around for about a half hour before taking them off. Good luck

Probably.....it depends on the shape of your foot and how used the included boots are. There is a memory foam in most boots that packs out relatively quickly, and if its shaped to someone else's foot it will make yours hurt. I would almost say, sure buy this package deal, but then hawk the boots and buy brand new ones so that they are shaped to your foot and you know they are comfortable and have an optimal fit. Sacrificing on boots is not something you want to do when shopping for gear.

There is no way to answer this as there is no consistency in boot sizing from one brand to another. ...and often even within brands. Most major companies have their boots produced in factories in one or more foreign countries. This being the case, most of the US sizes that boots are labeled with, are actually approximated conversions from one of five foreign sizing standards. To further exaggerate the problem, the companies use different lasts (templates around which the boots are created) which also vary in size. For a rough idea of how foot measurement should relate to shoe size, and how the many international sizing standards relate to each other see our site for a chart. Also, used boots will already be packed out to the original rider's foot, so that will affect sizing.

Yeah, that should work. See if you can try that boot on at a boardshop or something.
