There are 3 essential components to a well fitted pair of boots:
1/ Boot
Size and Shape (volume/last) and Flex (related to ability level)
Get fitted by a professional!
2/ Footbed
(innersole) – Custom, Generic, Corrective, Supportive.
Again, get fitted by a professional!
3/ Sock
Thin, Thick, Size, Cut, Material – must be wicking.
The chain is only as strong as the weakest link, so yes, something as simple as the wrong pair of socks can make all the difference.
