I’m becoming quite aware of how the ‘normal’ way we design footwear squishes our toes, leading to many consequences, the least of which is misshaped feet . and every time I put on my ski boots, I know it’s not good . I wonder: is there hope on the horizon that alpine touring boots might start to come out with generous toe boxes? . I mean, it’s a matter of awareness, right? . so I’m curious how much of an outlier I am in my desire for boots that don’t contribute to mangling our feet, or whether this is become more of a common concern
Heel lift is rarely solved by a liner cook in my opinion, an Achilles or ankle lock padding is generally needed on the exterior of the liner.
I wish this was my experience getting new boots.
Putting on an actual ski sock is important, especially one that will be used for touring. 😊
Golden. Thank you.

Is this any different with alpine boots?
Whoa, another dude with my same size! Glad I’m not alone. Finding boots sucks…
Haha! I was thinking the same :)
Thx for sharing, and just wondering how do you choose the right last?
if your toes tough the front when standing up wont that be really painful when climbing ? or can you fix that with heat fitting
