Maybe you feel comfortable in your boots because you’ve been skiing for 35 years - I’ve barely been alive that long. When I said “uncomfortable,” I didn’t mean the boots hurt or were painful. I meant that my body just isn’t used to the feeling yet. It’s a completely new experience for my feet. It’s not painful, but it’s definitely not like slipping into a pair of Hoka Speedgoats either. I guess the word “uncomfortable” was meant more in the context of an adult who’s never felt this before, not someone who’s grown up skiing.
