And recommendations on warm ski socks? My nike elite socks arent cutting it this year for some reason and my toes get cold. I would like a pair that is under $20

are you cranking down the buckles on the clog (the lower bit) of your boot more? as this can pinch the nerves and can lead to cold feeling toes.

Nah I actually leave then a little lose. I start to hike when It gets too cold and I get warm feet instantly. It may be my boots but they are by dabello so they aren't sketchy.

this is pretty much the only answer. I have lightweight and ultralight smartwool socks, even the ultralights are warm enough on sub-20 degree days

I don't ski in anything other than merino wool. It's worth every penny.
