Hello, I have a pair of tecnica agent 80 boots, they seem to fit pretty good. They're comfortable and all, but when i ski my toes feel like they're frozen after about 45 mins to an hour. Any Suggestions?

yea your boots are probably too small or  are cutting off your circulation in some way. go to a bootfitter and get some custom work done.

Could they fix my current boots? Because I don't have the money for new ones.

for starters, always dry your liners out after skiing and never leave them in your car or store them in your trunk on the way to the hill.

Aside from that check with your boot-fitter to see how tight the fit is. Too tight means poor blood flow which means frio.

I have some smart wool socks but they don't seem to help.
