OK, first of all, i need new boots. its okay if your toenails get all bruised and die the first time you wear them but ive had this happen four times in these boots and ive had em since January of '02. anyways, what are your thoughts on care for this nasty little problem, let em fall off naturally or yank em out? its really itchy right now which is a good sign because that means all the blood blister and nastiness is healing. any suggestions or thoughts?

oh yeah, tighten them at the toe, that way they cant move around, which is why they get smashed, also, tightent them at the top, that helps too

i have a story that has nothing to do with your problem, one time i had an ingrown toenail so i had surgery on it then someone stomped on it so hard so the new nail fell off and no one has grown in yet, so i have a toenailess toe, and the other big toe the nail fell off becuase it felt like it but its growing back, that is all

first of all, whoever thought i should go to the doc for a dead toenail is wearing their boots like a tourist. anyways, i have an idea of what i need in new boots, right now im in Salomon Pro Model 26.5s (8.5)... and i wear a size 11 shoe!! actually, my foot measures out at more of a 10.5 but the other thing is that for a 6'1, 175 skier that mostly shoots in the park and charges the rest of the mountain, i need something with a little bigger flex than 95. i have a really narrow foot too (AA) so i might go back to Langes or i kinda like the Xwave 10s. we'll see...

on another somewhat unrelated topic, my dad had a pair of the older Raichle Flexons (like, 1985 older, he's who i got my narrow feet from prob). anyways, he fucked up his big toe on his left foot so bad that he had to get it permanently operated on, like, they surgically took out the root of the nail, no more toenail there. its a cool lookin stub now and whenever he starts wearing sandles at the beginning of the summer, he draws a little smiley face on it and calls it 'Toda.' yup, good story

yeah its called ingrown toe tails and its not somethin to fuck around with. I know this because I've been readin up on it since all of a sudden I have athletes foot from cross country. Fuckin fungus on my foot itches like hell and I have to spray it with this stuff that burns like fuck.

i have little tiny woman feet... i wear 9 shoes and 24.5 salomon course boots (6.5s) with the toes punched a bit. my big toe toenails ussually fall off like once or twice a season. it probably wouldnt happen with a thicker toungue... but thats about it. i just take it as a given.

well, the thing is, with a softer boot, like, my foot keeps sliding fore and aft when im turning, so in the middle of the turn when im flexing forward the most, its wayy far from the front, cause its a soft-ish boot, but then in between turns, it rams back to the front, causing repeated trauma. ahaha, i said trauma related to ski boots, oookayy ian.

meh, ive got screwed up feet but i dont think i need to go any smaller, im done hanging out with freestylers and their crazy boot fitting ways, i want something thats something reminiscent of comfort, not something thats as snug as a nuns cooter.

yeah but see, snug is comfortable, or else your foot slides around and you feel much pain.

I've got promodels, and I've never killed my toe nails, and I have bad toenails. I think you just need to find a boot that fits tight around the foot and ankle and has a roomy toe-box, which is pretty much what the pro-mods are. Otherwise, there is always snowboarding.

^Yeah, I know, it's just that I put on my friends snowboard boots the other day, and it felt like my feet were having sex. Why can't ski boots be like that?

One of my friends who use to race a lot gets his toenail removed at the start of each season so he doesn't have to deal with them. It's pretty drastic but is worth considering. Personally I telemark and we have the most comfortable boots. haha you alpine skiers are missing out

 
dude you need new boots. tonails are essential for balance. but if you don't have the cash for that then:

this just happened to my tonail went black. i cut it back to the scab was exposed, poked the front of it and all the blood came out a little got left in there but its all good now.

i'd also say you should take your boots to a very legit shop, where you know people know what they are talking about. see if they are a masterfit boot shop (although certifications often mean nothing). get an expert to look at it. stay away from chain sport superstores and shitty multi sport shops. dude you can tell if a shop is pro often by the dudes that work there and by the skis they sell.

 
its happened to me twice before, the past time quite badly. I got new boots (1080 pro model) and love them. actually went down a size cause the old L10s had packed out too much and I was sliding around.

when the toenail fell off, and starting growing back it grew back all fucked up like, and now I have an ingrown toenail. Its fucking balls I hate it. I have to get it worked out before ski season starts for me too. Stupid toenails.

I feel bad for people who don't drink, cause when they wake up in the morning, thats the best the're going to feel all day
 
your boots are to big, getting a larger boot will only produce more problems. Get a custom footbed made, it will somewhat stop your foot from sliding around. Also look for a lower volume boot, not somthing big like salomon 1080. Big boots cause pain, small ones (that are fit correctly) dont.

And remember, its easier to make a boot bigger, then it is to make a boot smaller, so if inbetween shell sizes, go with the smaller boot.

salomon's are a pretty wide boot right? and you have narrow feeet? I'd find a narrow boot, like the flexons maybe, and make sure they aren't too big. If they fit good I don't think you should have a problem with your feet sliding around because the boot is too soft.

 
yea you need to get tighter boots. my boots are nice and snug so my feet dont slide around and smash into the front.

im just gonna sling crystal meth so i dont have to get a real job and can afford to ski, with the way my senior year is goin though thats probably one of my few options

On thanksgiving....I was in a hot tub boozin' and whatnot late night for about an hour. I guess it made my toenails soft. So when we get out this guy accidentally closes a door on my foot. My entire big toenail on my right foot got ripped off in one fell swoop. I was pretty wasted from the days festivities so it didn't really hurt at the time. It did bleed like shit though. Now I have a scab for a toenail. Lucky for me it happened in Nov. and not Feb. That's my story.

Look... A mountain RAM. Staring contest. Me and you. You don't even blink do you? You win. You always do. Goulet.
