Looking at getting a new pair of Imperials, maybe Ions. Right now I have older Hail's as a size reference. Can't find any locally to try on but was warned the sizing maybe slightly diff from somebody at a local shop.

Anybody run into that issue?

Or anybody feel like talking me out of those boots for another brand. Looking for something stiffer and more responsive for a Heritage/Targa setup probably with some Proto time too. I wear 11s so I'd rather keep the footprint small. I know Burton's shrinkage works but I'm open to others.....
