Feet too hot!!

Besides adding air conditioning to my boots, does anyone have any
suggestions regarding feet that get too hot while skiing?

I'm an intermediate/advanced track skiier, and after I'm warmed up
(about an hour) my feet start baking and never cool down.

My only solution is to stop skiing and stand in the snow for 15-20
minutes to cool the boots down. I wear a thin liner and relatively thin
wool/poly socks. Perspiration is a big problem, so I need some wicking.

Are there any boots that provide some ventilation? Any suggestions
would be appreciated.

Try wearing just one pair of socks. I think that the reason most people wear 2 pr socks is either 1) extra insulation for cold feet, or 2) blisters-- inner socks slide w/ feet, outer socks slide w/ boot.

You obviously don't have a problem with #1, so if you don't have a problem w/ #2, just wear one pair, and experiment with how thick you need that one pair to be.

If you don't have racing boots, get them. Recreational boots usually have a
more insulation than racing boots.
