Why do snow skiing boots give my shins long cuts, bruises, and blisters & what can I do to correct?
I am new to the sport of snow skiing. I went twice in the past week. I now have long cuts and blisters on the front of my shins. I have tried two different types of boots, the ones that open at the top and also the ones that open from the back. Both gave me cuts on my shins. I tried thick socks. I also stuff the leg portion of my long underwear into the boot as extra padding. I even tried putting soccer shin pads into my boots for extra padding. However, that seemed unstable while skiing. Any suggestions? Do I have to give up skiing for this problem? My foot size is men's 12.5. I use a size 13 boot because they don't make 12.5. I tried a 12 once, but that seems too small with my toes pushed up against the front of the boot. Thank you for your time.
First, never buy a ski boot by your normal shoe size. Especially since many boots are made in Europe and don't go buy your size. You are probably a 30 in a ski boot. When standing upright, your toe should be close to the front of the boat. Touching, but not touching. Like the sense thta you know that is the end of the boot by your toe, but not actually slammed into it to know. When you lean forward in your shin, your foot should slide back and you should not feel the front of the boot at all. You may be renting too small of a boot and it isn't shifting back, forcing your shin into the boot even more. Or, you are buckling it too tightly. If you are not an expert skiier, you want a little more give in your boot. Check out the links below for more info on boot sizing.
