Thanks for all the info guy’s
I guess my post was more of a nice comfortable, LIGHT weight(lbs), snow and ice boot with good traction with extreme warmth being last on the list.
I should also tell you that I have been in the downhill ski business my entire life so I have quite a bit of experience with cold feet and what to do to prevent it.
Either that or my feet have been frozen so many times in my life (skiing for 47yrs) I just don’t feel it anymore.
After talking with many ski boot representives I would like to pass on some tips that has really worked for the ski industry in reguards to foot warmth.
The most important thing is to keep the foot dry. Sweat will make your foot wet which equals cold feet.
Most people get cold feet because they put on to much sock so their feet will sweat and that sweat/moisture is what makes the foot get cold.
For example if you put all your heavy socks and boots on before you leave the house just think how warm your feet will be while you are driving and walking to your final destination. Your feet will be sweating the whole time and now when you stop all that moisture around your feet will cool off and your feet will get cold.
So something to try (which has worked very well for me)
1) Put your boots on at the final destination before exposure to the cold like the parking lot, or the chalet/ warming house.
2) do not put alot of socks on, your feet have to breath.
3) carry 1 or 2 pair of dry socks (moisture wicking) with you to your final/final destination. As soon as you feel any coldness getting to the foot either change to dry socks or add a layer for insulation from the cold getting to your foot.
4) all ways dry your boots after each trip so moisture escapes from the boot (plus it helps with the smell )
5) if all else fails they do have those toe/hand warmers.
Sorry for carrying on so much, but give it a try.
