About This Video

In this video I’m answering a question I hear all the time: “How do I do up my ski boots properly?” Al and I run through a simple, repeatable way to buckle your boots so they’re snug where they need to be, without cutting off circulation or ending up with sore shins by lunchtime. If you’ve ever cranked every buckle as tight as possible and wondered why your feet go numb, this is for you. I talk through what I focus on first when I put boots on, how I check the fit before I start tightening anything, and the order I like to work through the buckles so the boot holds my heel and supports the lower leg. The big takeaway is that “tight” isn’t the goal—control is. When your boots are done up correctly, your heel stays put, your toes can still wiggle, and you’re not fighting pressure points all day. It’s one of those small pieces of ski advice that makes a massive difference to comfort and confidence on snow.
