hire boots

Im off to laclusaz in january and will be hieing board and boots,this will
be my 4th time.I allways get a problem with numb feet after a while,I read a
post on here saying that was due to poor fitting boots of cranking the
bindings too tight.
my question is, do most hire shops carry different makes of boot in the same
size? so I could try a few pairs on.

When I was first learning how to snowboard and had to rent, they usually
only had 2 kinds, soft and step-in. And all of them were the same
model/brand. I'm not sure how it is over there though (I'm in the US).

But yes, your sources are correct. Usually, if you have a larger boot then
what fits your foot, your feet will get numb. Well, from my experience
anyways. Try to get a good fitted boot and its a good idea not to crank the
bindings too tight.

Hopefully that helps a bit...
