wtf are you talking about i dont see how that could happen unless your feet are soar, your buckling straps to tight, or the pads like hardened or soemthing

first don't buckle them so tight, then try getting orthopedic insoles or something

A foot bed will help. Also try not doing those bottom 2 buckles up at all. After that take them into a boot fitter and let him/her have a look at the fit.

i cant remember where i heard this but dont buckle your bottom buckles if you dont want to because they have absolutley no performance value it all comes from the top buckles

first, try custom molded footbeds. if that doesn't work take them to a bootfitter (NOT surefoot - their "custom" liners are a fucking joke and harder than a pair of bowling shoes) and get them to tweak around with lifts and stuff, and to analyze the pressure...also, you might not think it but the trouble could come from having the cuff too tight around your calves, which can be tweaked by changing the position of the buckles. i'm kind of an expert on this subject now since my surefoot-fitted boots I got last season cut off the circulation in both my feet from below the knee..and since those guys had no fucking idea what to do I went to a legit shop and got them fixed properly.

I agree, footbeds will do wonders. Just get some superfeet from a sports store and cut them to match the footbed in your liner. If you still have problems after that, you might have bought a boot thats a little to narrow for your foot. Take them into a pro ski shop, good shops can shave down the liner to give your foot more space. You might also consider a special custom footbed if you have flat feet or weird arches, but those can get pricey.
