[QUOTE="Wyodog, post: 1446140, member: 51310"] I will skip a lacing point on my boots when I have a spot that tight laces bother my foot. I've even had the left and right boot laced differently at times, nor sure why but think it's because your feet swell when hiking with a heavy pack and my theory is 1 foot may have swelled more than the other. It's well doctumented that hikers feet swell especially after a few days so I get boots with enough room to accommodate the swelling.I also carry a thinner sock for days when my boots feel tighter. I also tighten my boots when descending steep mountains to keep my feet from sliding down to the toe pocket. [/QUOTE]
