Instructor at BV here! If you are renting please show up one HOUR early to your lesson. So many people show up to the rental shop at their lesson time and end up missing their lesson :( I would wear lots of layers that way you can take off or put on if needed, long ski socks, and snow pants are a must! Also don’t forget to tip your instructors :)

Emphasis on the SKI socks, darn tough makes some great ones, a lot of people think they want thick warm socks but you really want some thin merino wool, otherwise your feet will be killing you by the end of the day

The Darn Tough ski socks have extra padding on the shin area but aren't as thick around the foot. They're taller than your boots. You can get 'em in different thicknesses but I've found the thinner ones are plenty warm and it's easier to fit into your boots that way - ski boots aren't generally generously sized.
