No one is saying any of these things. They are saying the numbers don't tell the full story and never will. Ever. The last width is a real number, it's how wide the boot is in one specific spot. It's not what foot it will fit. If ski boots were automobile parts or bicycle parts, sure, the measurements would be incredibly useful. It would be all you need to find a compatible 'part'. Ski boots have to interface with humans, humans are... squirrelly. So scanning the foot is nice, info is great, but it's a starting point that honestly is way less helpful to getting the best boot possible than you would ever believe. It's a 'dog and pony show' to reassure the customer that you know what you're doing but it's no better than a Brannock device and a good set of eyes. I know you HATE that answer, but it is the answer.i dont see why you guys are blaming the app and saying throw out the app.
When you are also saying the app measurements are correct and you can confirm with a tapemeasure.
So the blame should be on the boot last product spec if something like a 100last spec is appropriate fit for a 113 real foot. This isnt the apps fault, you still need to know the actual measurement as a starting point, and that's real quantitative data.
Just read what Pliny the Elder posts, his posts are a straight up:
