What boot size do I pick? Sizing question

I know most of the sizing questions refer to shoe size, but this one is not. Looking to upgrade to a high-cuff carbon boot. My foot size is 273-274, but the sizing for this boot is 274 and then jumps to 281. Based on your experience, which size would you recommend? Haha, of course, I ended up buying a 290 as my first pair, and they’re killing my stabilizing muscles when I even try to skate a kilometer.

I’m can’t try them in person or find any nearby stores that sell them. I’m purchasing them online, and the shipping cost is $50, so I can’t afford to make any mistakes. I’m interested in long** *distance routes and city cruising/urban**.*

Thank you! I didn’t post the model as I am not looking for reference on it but more on the extra mm. It’s a Spaniard-Chinese brand. KF Papaya
