If your shoe size is 9.5 then your boot size is not a 27 shell size.. You should probably be in a 26 shell. Also, ignore the 1/2 sizes as in ski boots this is irrelevant. 26 and 26.5 should be considered as the same thing.
The boot choice that you make is relative to your foot shape and goals. The Falcon may be the right thing and it may not. Specific model recommendations via the internet are generally near worthless.

We don't do a whole lot of full shell cooks either. Rather we sell the boot for it's fit type and do localized stretches as we would with any other boot. It (is) nice however, to be able to use the CS feature for areas such as the soft tissue region aft of the 5th met. The CS feature seems to deliver a nice general stretch there where specific punches might be too abrupt. (I think I'm doing one tonight)
We like the CS boots a lot.............we do wish they had a true 98 though.

Yep, got that one. I'd agree it's somewhere between a 95 and a 98. We carry the soft as a "tweener" boot for some juniors. IMO, it's a bit much as a consumer boot.
