My friend had the same boot, same issue. Day 6 or 7 now for him and he says they are good to go. Invest in a foam roller, best thing you'll ever do. Helps your shins and even legs/butt/feetback and really everything. Roll the same day you just skied or a day before you ski. It does miracles. It hurts a lot on your shins but its worth it.

Ski more and bitch less. Sorry but it's the truth if your boots fit well.

Uhh...did you get them fitted before buying them?

If not, get them fitted, and mostly likely get new boots, because they might just not fit your feet.

If you did, then...ski? Don't really know how else you expect to break ski boots in besides just skiing in them.

Yea, just put them in a fire place with a fire for a while! That will do it!

Then get some HEAD Thrasher boots! They are the new ticket!

just go to your local shop and get them fitted... boots dont usually fit perfectly right out of the box
