I'll give this a go this weekend. You helped advise me a bit a couple years back when I was having issues finding a suitable touring boot. Apparently I have a unique foot.

New Foot Scanner App
This is pretty neat. I’ve always struggled finding low enough volume boots without going for a full on plug. Currently in a 25.5 Solly smax 130 with a power wrap for my hill boot. I don’t love the flex (a little too stiff off the top), but fit wise it’s pretty great. For a touring boot I’m in a 25.5 Solly MTN lab with power wrap, added toe buckle, and relocated instep buckle. It walks like shit now, and skis okay.
I wish I could get that smax shell fit in a touring boot that actually walks. Hawx Ultra 130?

I have a similar foot to you although maybe slightly higher volume and have used TLT6s (26.5) which fitted pretty well. I'm now using a Zero G Scout (25.5) which is slightly roomy with the stock liner but not too bad. Although I haven't been able to try a Hawx Ultra XTD in a 25 shell (the 26 was too long).
My feet for reference.

Looks like I may have the skinniest pair of feet in here...no wonder even my 28 Salomon xmax's (now the s/max) give me pain. Interesting cause my right foot is always worse, and its also the smaller foot (worse fit?). I've always struggled to find boots. Currently thinking my next pair of boots will need to be a commercial race boot of sorts. Any thoughts? Feel free to pm me how to upload this scan btw

Morphine, you’d probably slide right into a plug. In my experience the atomic redsters have good instep height.

Thanks. Good to note, as I will likely be in the market for new boots soon. Anyone have any other recommendations on a nice 130 flex plug boot or boot with a last to possibly fit my foot? Just looking for ideas before I head into a new boot fitter, as obviously, my current one isn't helping me.

A bit of weird differences with Fischer's app regarding instep height, but maybe as I'm twisting a bit my knees to take the photo it moves my ankles and lift a bit the instep. And with Fischer's as you're seated don't twist knees.
Btw, now I'm on 26.5 Tecnica 0G Guide Pro, before was on Cochise 26,5
In between I've tried Atomic Ultra XTD130 in 26,5, and sell it after 3 days, it crushed my feet on the instep, and also way too soft that I ended some days with cramps on my calfs, so returned to Tecnica for the 0G Guide pro and fitted well without any punch, only with a bit o heel lift.
The ZGTP will be similar than my actual 0G Guide?

Yes, almost identical in fit. Hawx Ultra XTD has a reasonably high instep (typical Atomic) but the very small cuff circumference pulls the instep transition much further back . . . looking at your scans, the very ovalized shape where the ankle cuts off shows your aren't a candidate for small cuff circumference shells.

For those who've had trouble with this app, they've released an update which is supposedly more crash resistant. It also is much easier to find the "X" (you don't actually have to see it and zero in) and align the two dots (you just have to get pretty close and hold still, not actually overlap them).

For those experiencing issues like myself with the state not loading and can’t proceed after receiving a code, no fix (at least for me)

New Foot Scanner App
Boot recommendation would be appreciated. My 28.5 Lange RX120 from 2012 are on their last runs. They are heavily punched and still cause a lot of pain on the instep and outside of foot.

I don't think the 100mm Lange RX is a bad recommendation - if they still are not wide enough, punch them more (or find another bootfitter) - 117mm is wide but my foot is also 117mm and I'm in a LV 26.5 (three pairs) . . . as for instep (worse on the left, I assume) it's a combination of thinner footbed, thinner bootboard, heat punch the instep area with some sort of wedge (depending on what the fitter has at their disposal), cutting out elastic and vinyl on liner, compressing tongue foam, etc.
Atomic Hawx Prime or Salomon S/Pro could also be a possibility.
Could you post left and right views of your foot as well?

Yeah, super tall instep esp. on the left. It's tough because your instep is not only high, but relatively far forward - this disqualifies the Hawx Ultra XTD. You also need a bootboard that is thick enough to grind - this disqualifies the Lange XT3. Dalbello is a possibility, though the narrow lasted boots (Pro HD, 130 C) have poor walk modes and weigh a ton and the Lupo AX 120 will fit like a boat if you are in a Lange LV now. Roxa R3 is a possibility, tallish instep and relatively light, not a great walk mode . . .
Could you also post screenshots from the left and directly from the front?
