Why do astronauts wear heavy boots?
Their boots aren't heavy in outer space because there is no gravity. Actually the boots are relatively light compared to their size; but the materials used in their construction (kevlar, polymers, metals 7-10 layers of rugged material) are there to ensure the astronaut's safety by protecting them from the vacuum and temperature extreems of space. With all that material, their boots would be a little more heavy than their earthy counter-parts, but the weight isn't a factor in their design. In fact, lighter boots would be better in outer space because it costs so much money per pound of cargo to get things into orbit. It only stands to reason that the flight engineers would want everything to be as strong and light as possible.

What were ski boots used for in space?
I think you mean what are moon boots used for with skiing. NASA worked with Raichle to make the moon boots which after being used in space was adapted into skiing. From NASA.gov In cooperation with Raichle Molitor USA Inc. and the international Raichle organization, Comfort Products developed the Raichle Flexon concept in ski boots. The Flexon concept is an adaptation of the accordion-like corrugations of extravehicular space suit joints, which allows ski boots to flex without significant distortion. The design provides immediate transmission of power and therefore precision skiing. Comfort Products also applied heating element circuitry from Apollo astronaut's clothing to foot-warming devices in their boots in the 1970s.
