Just wondering.  I wore mine for a good 20hrs once just because.  Ski boots can be party footwear!

Yeaa I would say no longer then 10 hours. I have fairly flat feet and I usually wear orthotics but I don't in ski boots. Even though my ski boots still have really good support, my feet are really starting to hurt after 8 hours.

Somewhere around 60-65 hours. But to be fair, it was snowboard boots. Working for my local resort getting ready for a contest. That was the week I showed up to work Wednesday morning, and left late Saturday night, with no sleep. AND nothing illegal was used to stay awake that long. People on NS can confirm this story.

for me like 8 hours maybe, I take them off at lunch usually I hate ski boots. I know a kid who has done a ski day, the bar, to sleep, and another ski day. Same socks, same underwear, same clothes, disgusting.

 not sure exactly...

Skied for 8 hours in them... was super tired so crashed in the car for an hour while still wearing them when we drove back home.. got back to the place.. passed out for ish hours in them... woke up the next day in them.. we were going skiing, so i kept them on.. skied another 6 or 7 hours.. chilled in them for a few hours after in the bar at the bottom of the hill..

add it up.. 8+1+9+6 to 7+2 to 3 = 26 to 28 hours in them somewhere in there.

granted i 'm sure they werent buckled the WHOLE time...  so that's not so terrible.

that's pretty ridiculous though.

longest i've done was probably getting them on at 8:30 for a couple powder runs before ski instructing, skiing until 4-4:30 then going to a friends place in them to ski some more until like 6, get some dinner in them, go back to said place and finally take them off at like 10. so that's like 15?

Now that sounds like a formula for some smelly boots. Probably OK in the winter, I can't imagine something like that during one of the summer camps.
