The important factor is whether they can melt and form the plastic boot shell, which will give you the greatest balance of a tight fitting boot with pressure areas such as bunions relieved. Also a custom plastic moulded foot bed will make a huge difference to both comfort and control and will set you back an extra hundred. But for once a year skiers its maybe not so important.
