For skiing, if you want to do it for life, always buy decent boots and ask pros where they get them fitted. Most people ski in boots a size or two too big or with poor cuff alignment (even people at a high level). It is much harder to improve and enjoy your time on snow with these things not addressed. The consumer approach would dismiss getting a professional fitting as overkill and unnecessary but they really limit their enjoyment.
