Very interesting point SAB has. Seems unusual that her toes get that cold so quickly. I had frostbite on my toes and the cold does not seem to affect me as badly as it does your daughter. I use the Hottronics 3.5 Custom footwarmers and so far they are great. Last night skiing it was 15 degrees and my toes were warm as toast.

You mention foot warmers, and it sounds like she has the "standard" footwarmer that is built into a footbed. Since I have custom footbeds, I bought the "custom" type foot warmer. This model allows you to put the foot warmer into whatever foot bed you are using. Also, it seems that you might have nothing to loose by trying to trim the warmer she has to fit the boot.

Just had this thought. What about those "space blankets"? Maybe she could cut one so she could wrap a single layer around her socks? (May be a little extreme, but I though I'd mention it.)
