Well, my most recent boot fitting experience and today’s testing of just Superfeet green has told me that at least in my new boots I don’t need custom insoles. But my toes are freezing! The Superfeet seem super flimsy though so I wanted to find out if anyone has used boot heaters with them? The google machine isn’t giving me much help.

Get heated socks. Just my opinion. But I recently got a pair and they are a game changer.

Gotta agree. A friend's daughter is a pro patrol. She's been through every boot heater known to man, as well as 3 brands of heated socks.

The only thing that has lasted for her are Lenz socks.

n=1, but she spends a LOT of time in her boots.

Reasons I'm not a good candidate for heated socks at this time:

1 - Large calves mean sizing socks can be very challenging.
2- I want fresh socks for every ski day. I do not want to have to wash socks every night if I'm skiing back-to-back days. It is extremely costly to purchase additional socks.
3- I do not hang dry very much laundry and I guarantee I will accidentally put these in the dryer.

I appreciate everyone's suggestions but I promise I have thought this through because there are things about heated socks that would be much easier to deal with.

I have Superfeet Green in my Atomic Hawx Ultra 110, along with the Sidas in-sole heater setup. I had no issues with install, and they work fine.
