Hockey shops are 3d scanning feet, but they don't have individualized boots to go with that; it just gets you a shoe size and one of three fit profiles within that size.

Better ski touring (and even just alpine skiing) boots have inner soft parts that are heat-moldable to fit perfectly to everyone's unique feet. Ski shops all have these heat machine specifically for this, but there are tutorials on how to even do it at home with just rice, socks and microwave in case you shop online (with almost no risk of destroying it as usual)
