Full Tilt’s cult following grows year after year, but superskier Seth Morrison has been with them all along. The Full Tilt Men’s Seth Morrison Pro Model Ski Boot is the product of Morrison’s specific design demands—it’s stiff, stands up to hundred-foot airs, and lets you feel your toes. Morrison’s friend Josh Malay (RIP) designed the boot’s unique wrap-around graphic, and Full Tilt’s touches of fabric, zippers, and buttons punctuate the boot’s message: Let ‘er rip, and take no prisoners.
Active Bootboard rubber absorbs the impact of big landings
Aluminum levers are strong and lightweight
Full Tilt’s highest-performing Pro Liner is heat-moldable, seamless, lightweight, and includes an extra layer of ergonomic Powerwrap around the outside for power transfer and ankle hold-down
J-Bar liner design holds the ankle in place
Cable buckle system distributes pressure evenly to eliminate dead spots
Mult-lateral and forward cant angle adjustments let you adjust the boot precisely
Free hinging cuff flexes freely to let you lean forward without distorting the boot’s shape
Bottom Line: A boot that takes you closer to your personal best.
I wear about a size 11 to 10 and a half and I was wondering what would be the best size for me? I tried to find ski stores that had them but they are sold out everywhere around here. I'm sixteen so I expect my foot to grow a little in the next few years but not by much.
For me these boots are it. Proud to have been able to work with Full Tilt and come up with this boot. The art is done by Josh Malay, he did the first 3 K2 Seth Pistol's art work. He passed away in Andorra 5 years ago in a snowboarding accident. So we have been keeping his dream alive by having his art on this boot in a Punk fashion.
I have been in this boot for my entire Pro career, even ski racing in them as a teen. Skied in this shell as it changd hands from Raichle, Kneissl to today's Full Tilt. Full Tilt has taken it to the next level with graphics and offering different performance tongues, and created their own Liners through Intuition.
Is a timeless boot and has been copied by other companies, but you can't beat the lightness where the others have failed. The full forward flex with a floating rear cuff keeps shin bang to a distant memory. Liners mold to every nock and cranny of your foot as well as the shell making booting an ease and keeping your foot toasty. Foam liners may be stiffer, but don't come close to the fit. If you have the foot for Full Tilt give them a try.
Hey Seth, In the last couple of years I've really improved my skiing, and have started charging some heavy terrain and cliffs. I've also started skiing a little in the park, but most of my time is spent all-mountain. My olds boots have ZERO shock absorption and I have heel bruises all over. Assuming full tilts fit my foot, would you suggest your pro model boot or something like the hot dogger or konflict if I ski about 75% all-mountain (everything from groomers to pow to sidecountry) and like 25% (maybe a little less) park. Keep up the fantastic work! -Ben
It's a matter of personal preference but for me, the #10 is too stiff for mogul skiing. If I was buying a boot for just bump skiing I would look at the #4 or 6 tongue.

It's simply a joy to put on a pair of these Seth. Here're my reasons for liking it so much: 1. Super easy to put on and off. 2. Super easy micro-adjustment of buckles. 3. Slightly wider than the other 3 piece design manufacturer. 4. Multi-laminate Pro Intuition Liner that provides a thin layer of cushioning providing comfort without sacrificing much performance. 5. The 3-piece design of course! The flexing feels sooooooo natural, it's a joy to make every turn with it. 6. Lighter weight 7. Bad-ass design 8. And of course, the NOT so Ordinary Skier - SETH. I got about 102mm width, so it did take a custom boot fitting to blow out some areas. Also used an aftermarket foot-bed. Rock-solid, will never go back to two piece designs.
Sort of. For most of full tilts boots all of the parts are interchangeable and available to buy separately. What sets them apart is the quality of the liners and the stiffness of the tongue(shin piece). However, this year they introduced a few wider models like the Booter and the high five that are not interchangeable.
Well, ultimately this boot didn't work out for me (ended up packing out and being too big...my fault for buying the wrong size), but while it did fit is was insane. Everyone knows about the pros of full tilt, super easy to get into and very lightweight. But what I didn't expect was the incredible control this boot gives you. Its super snug (but not tight) and the #10 flex is super super stiff. I used this boot from park to big mountain in the Alps and it performed great everywhere. Bottom line, if it fits your foot its a fantastic option for anyway looking for an alternative to 4 buckle boots.
hey guys what do you think? I have been skiing in Tecnica agent 110 for the last two years and they have been ok but not amazing, especially the shin bang. I wanna know if i should go with these or the krypton il moro boots. I realize the liners are both intuition im just not sure if they fit differently etc. So can anyone help me out?
According to the stat sheet the full tilt is 1mm wider than the il moro. As you pointed out , the boots are pretty similar, the reason I would go with full tilt is that they are lighter and the fact that you can customize the boot with different tongue/ flexes. Make sure you try them on first as seth pointed out, you have to have the foot for them. Join the cult.
Full tilt Seth Morrison ski boots are truly the most awesome boots I have ever strapped on to my feet. I am literally able to do more on skis because of the higher level of comfort and control these have given me!!After several years of dealing with really bad shin bang i can now ski multiple days in a row in comfort due to the three piece design. I have had several people say how because of the 3 piece construction full tilt boots are waaayyy to soft but that is definitely not true. Standing in these compared to my old 120 flex boots these are actually stiffer, but when skiing, even though they are stiff, they flex in their own unique natural way that does not give me shin bang. The liners are also amazing, i have about a 100mm last and after heat molding them they fit like a glove and are comfortable and warm all day. They are also super easy to get into even if they have been riding in a cold truck bed and you have to put them on in a the parking lot! Everything about this boot is superior to every other boot i have tried on and used!!! So if you are sure they will fit your foot, buy em right now, you will not be sorry!
its time for me to replace my flexon comps. Black and green w/purple buckles, circa 1992 I think. Does any one out there know how the flex of that boot would compare to the full tilt line up??? Thanks for the help!! Would love to get the seth morrison pro model!
The flexon comps that I used to ride are pretty similar to the #6 full tilt tongue. The nice thing is, no matter which boot you buy can easily get a new tongue if the flex isn't what you want. FYI the morrison pro is the stiffest #10 tongue.
This guy does. you can snap up a softer tongue for the colder days or the days of skiing with some restraint. Otherwise, keep it as is, and let it roll. The liner's foam is so stable that you may not have to cook it to fit it. It holds up very well over time and can weather the wet-foot days. I got a pair early and will keep them for another year without a doubt. Metal buckles too? Plastic blades topped the list of complaints of its predecessor, and now it is fixed. These are bomber and no longer necessitate a dental pick to remove the forefoot buckle-- if by chance you have an altercation with a stump under 26" in the CO backcountry.
I'm from the east coast so I need a boot that is stiff enough to make a stiff pair of skis hold on days when there's a lot of ice. I know that the flex is different on this boot, but does that have any effect on how I will be able to bend the ski to grip hard snow and ice? Also what kind of ski works well with this boot other than the Obsethed. I usually ski on Head Mojos or Dynastar Legend XXL, but more on the heads. I'm also sixteen and a really aggressive skier.
These boots are stiff, but can be made stiffer by riveting the cuff to the lower shell, if you really need that. The ski question is a bit odd, Souns like you want a narrow waisted ski for those firm days, maybe something from the race line up.
Amazing how some new paint and marketing can sell to the kiddies...though with this product I'm stoked they're turned on to it. This is the best freeskiing boot ever made, even as the original design was done long before anyone used that term. The best advice in boots is to buy what fits. Thank Full Tilt for using an Intuition liner in all of they're boot models as most everyone with a D width or less will be fine after heat molding the liner. Now for the bonus. The weight of the boots has to be 1/3 less than standard 4 buckle boots due to the use of plastic enclosure vs. metal buckles. My favorite part though is the flex. What you apply in forward and downward pressure is stored as energy upon release. No other design works like that. The boot actually has "pop". All of the Full Tilt line has a design of this sort but why not throw down and support the pro model concept and buy the Seth. Props to the Full Tilt company for bringing this boot design back from the ashes where it never should have been and props to Morrison for shredding in the boot for all these years. Pce.
The #10 tongue obviously is the stiffest, but the boot flexes much differently than the 4 buckle style boots. The cuff has more forward movement than the 4 buckle boots. The boots are pretty much all the same, the tongue flex and liners are the main differences through out the line. So its hard to compare it to other brands stiffness. Find a shop that has them and try them on.
How do these boots fit? I have heard they fit both large and small from different places. I'm somewhere between a 10.5 and 11 in street shoes (prob a 10.5 if i wanted them to fit snug) and found that my 27.5 salomon's were running too small and my technica 28.5s were much too large after they packed out.
Try The 28.5 The moldable liner helps give a perfect fit. I would recommend getting shell sized in them before you buy with the past boot sizing issues.
I hear these boots are supposed to be tight out of the box and after heat molded and toe box expanded, they fit great. How tight is tight though? I tried on out of the box and my toes are at the end, and quite tight, and they still are at the end when flexing forward. Havne't done the heat molding yet..but is this too tight?
I have one of the linner ovens from the Raichle days. These work best since it's like a convection oven. I have seen people use a regular home oven and done it once myself, you have to be carful not to melt the liner by touching it on oven parts like the rack or heating elements. 10 minutes at 250.
Thanks for the info on the fit!! I am thinking the 28 mondo shell would be more in the 1 to 1.5 finger range, then the 27.5 I picked up (the 27.5 is just under a finger). I am getting fitted at a shop in boulder that I think likes to fit boots quite tight, so they can sell their add-ons...may need to get into the 28!!
How is your shell size? Pull liner, just have toes touching front of boot, stick index finger behind heel and or index plus middle finger. You should have 1 to 1.5 fingers behind your heel.
Trying them on out of the box they should be tight, but you should have your ski sock on and footbed in as well. While molding them they will be even tighter since the liner expands when heated. You should have a toe cap on while doing said molding and have cant adjustments set prior to molding.
Once they cool off. If they still are to tight you can remold again and liner will loose more thickness. Fine tuning with shock thickness helps!
I'm not a boot fitter I just cook my own liners and know what works for me with this shell.
i decided to try em' again for the first time. im here to say best boots in the business. the liners are also equally awesome.
Seth Morrison has known this for a long time now.
The lightest on the market. absolute delight to wear.
the tounge flex is perfect. My previous boot was a nordica race stock boot, so i like an aggressive flex. This boot is the best of both worlds.
the soft inner sole makes for great landings and snow feel is not affected. I could ski race with these boots all day long and be competitive. But i ride fresh powder these days. I wish i had these long ago.
i boot pack in these boots with no problems with comfort. did i mention they are light!!
at the end of cold day these boots slide off like slippers too!
Dont believe the hype that these are for narrow feet either. try em' first as they are heat moulded.
Is there any reason that BC.com only has these in stock in half sizes? My old full tilts were a 26 mondo and that was the perfect size for me? Do you think I should go with a 25.5 or a 26.5?
A comment about BC's return policy - awesome! I make every effort to buy from them because I know they stand behind what they sell and their satisfaction guaranteed promise isn't just blowing smoke.
the 26.5 is the same shell as the 26. I am a fan of whole sizes. The liner is thicker in whole sizes. I always like to round down, but everyones foot is different and you don't want something that is too big or too small. Wait a few days and they might get more in. So far its the only full tilt boot that has arrived so far, otherwise, you can buy it and exchange it if it doesn't fit. Or order both and return the one that doesn't fit(the shipping label will cost $6.99). You should know right away if the 25.5 is too small since you have had full tilts before. I am only saying this because you have had full tilt boots before. To tell if a boot is too big might not be as easy. I say wait a few days and if they get more full tilts in but not more of this model then order both and return the one that doesn't fit before the due date of your credit card bill. Edit 10/4/10 I emailed full tilt asking about how their half and whole sizes differ: "Full Tilt FT original shells are the same for the full and half size. A size nine shell is the same as a nine and a half. The liners are also the same. Please keep in mind that we heat mold the half size liners on a half size mold/last. So if you try on the nine it will fit smaller than the nine and a half. The heat moldability is really what makes the difference for us with half sizes. Most other boot companies just put a spacer in to make up for the half size. Our boots are specifically heat molded for the half size. Once a professional ski boot fitter heats the liner it will lose the specific size it was and will be ready to mold to the full size or half size. This does not include our FTI Influence shell used with the High Five, Booter and Mary Jane. The FTI uses a different liner and boot board for each size." The 26.5 should work for you.
i'm about a 100mm last and still tried these on with a pro fitter. They were a little too snug, but the boot fitter explained how the liner in this boot is most customizable liner out there this year. He went on to say that my 100mm foot would easily be accommodated by simply customizing the liner a little. He said the shell could be punched a little too. A Full Tilt rep explained the same thing and said that this boot could accommodate up to about 101-102 last with custom work, but that they wouldn't go more than that. Also, if you have too much discomfort on the inside of the ankle, the bad news is that there isn't much room to punch the boot in that specific area, based on the nature and construction of the boot in the old school style. This is also a fairly stiff boot (120 ish), but you can easily replace the tongue with a softer one, as the whole flex of this boot is controlled by the tongue. If you're jumping cliffs, this stiffness might be perfect. If not, you might want to put in a different tongue.
Anyone have any idea what the weight of a pair of these are????? not even the full tilt site has weight on it. All i seem to find says "UP to 2 lbs Lighter than other boots'? Alot of help that is
I really liked this boot, especially how light and comfortable it was. However, I would really recommend getting the boot liner heat molded, because the first few days in the boot were quite painful, and my heels sometimes still hurt. It's quite a demanding flex, and once you relinquish foreword pressure, it's very difficult to gain it back. at 135lbs I'm finding the flex is too much for me and am buying another tongue. That's the beauty of the boot: flexes can be easily adjusted.
Dear seth, I know this is a stiff boot but because of the naural flex could this work as a resort boot as well....i dont huck massive cliffs all the time because of the snow condition but wen theres pow i like to push it.....i do a little backountry cliff hucking but for the most part steep terrain. is this the boot......
Thanks Seth.....gonna get these soon love the graphics there sick. P.S. If you wanna take me skiing sometime you totally can.....lol jk but I am a huge fan. PEACE
This boot is not the stiffest boot in the boot world. The tongue on this boot is the stiffest in fulltilt line up. You can get different flex's of tongues to customize your needs to make them softer. Don't be fooled with what I do and thinking I have stiff boots, I use them for their softness,full flex, and foot fit. Stiff race boots are to much for me, you should be fine for resort skiing with these.
Basically, I bit it really hard last weekend because I had to rent equipment since my ex-wife kept my gear after the divorce. Ended up puncturing a lung and stuff. So, I started researching gear. I ended up buying the Obsethed with the binding system based on the great reviews I found.
Now I am in the market for a boot. Just the fact that you are on here behind this product is enough to get me to buy it. The boots remind me of the Green and Black Rachlies I used to race in way back when. Although the design is a bit more then I would prefer, I appreciate your buddy's tribute and I will wear them with pride.
I have giant ankles and calfs, Seth or someone, would these boots fit comfortablly. If not could you recomend a good pair of boots that would fit comfortablly.
rfl, I read the description of the SPK, seems like a park boot im more of an all mountain rider. Any all mountain boots that are good but would still fit a giant calf and ankle.
How would these boots do for skinning and bootpacking in the backcountry? Is there any particular approach to take when using them in the backcountry for hikes?
I use them for what your looking to do. I just unbuckle them if I want movement like forward flex. Mostly short skins and boot hikes 1hr to 2hr, have skinned 5 hrs plus with no problems.
hiking is one thing, skinning is another one. If they are fine for hiking thanks to their lightweight, for skinning you need to have a boot with freedom of movement (flex forward).
I've been skiing the bumblebees for about 2 seasons now. I have a wider toe-box and I've noticed some cramping because they are narrow (I've been skiing about 40 times in them, so, the liners have slightly packed out). I just put a new footbed in them, so, if that helps with arch support and the cramping stops, I'll report back.
I demoed these last year and they fit great. I have fairly narrow feet but HUGE bunyons on my fore foot that make my feet super wide up front. With that said, this boot fit awesome, however, DO NOT buy a boot without trying it on first w/ a pro boot fitter (sports authority and dicks doesn't count). After you do that, come back to backcountry and get the sick deal.
Having said that i have a really wide flat foot and i wear 98mm Head race boots, i undo the two lower buckles on the lift but they are really comfy.. i think that a narrow boot is better because it is less likely to develop slop as the linner packs out (which it will!!). And you can always get the boot punched if need be.
I have the same size boot as Seth, and I weighed them at the post office today. A pair of size 25 mondo weighs 8.1 pounds. That's about 1850 grams for a single boot, which is pretty close to the stiffest touring boots out there.
In comparison, my old salomon promodels with foam liners weigh 9.5 pounds for a pair in the same size. That's a big difference.
For me these boots are it. Proud to have been able to work with Full Tilt and come up with this boot. The art is done by Josh Malay, he did the first more...
