Some good points above. Japanese feet in general are wider that western and some boot makers will/used to make specific Japanese sizes. I used to ski in Lange for a long time. I preferred a very stiff boot - but as you get older comfy take precedence over performance. Salomon sell both in Japan. Look out for the JP in the name when you try on. If you have wide feet then these might do the trick. They did for me! I can't comment on the other makers as I have never tried them.

I once did a sponsored 24 hour ski. We had a four man team. It was very cold during the early hours. Not fun at all.
