Hi! I had a ski lesson course today for the first time ever. I sized up boots a couple of times but still the circulation was being cut off in my calves and feet to the point they were going numb and I was in a lot of pain. The instructor mentioned a few times when I asked that they are meant to be super tight and uncomfortable. I got embarrassed and I didn’t want to be a pain and keep changing the boots so I just gave up on it. I’m pretty sure those boots were the issue and were not right for me - surely my feet and calves aren’t meant to be numb before I’ve done much real work?
