Hello - regarding Brantano and Clarks - are these people or shops? Why do you recommend them? Whereabout in London are they?

Thanks.

You can find them on most high streets 8) Clarks are very good a very comfortable fit I have not used Brantano so may be I should not comment on them :wink:

I can recomend pro feet. They worked wonders with my boots.

Appreciate its slightly west of London in Hillingdon near to Heathrow, but try Bartletts. Always found them very good and thorough. Not happy take them back. Look out for Terry I think his name was, a cross between an old Hells Angel and a retired Status Quo roadie. Grey pigtail and a beard you wont miss him.Know this may not suit but try and avoid weekends as they hire a lot of kit out and it gets busy with school trip fittings. That being said the early bird catches the worm.

Scarlet Fez, thanks for the heads up on that dealership. It's good to see confidence in the fitting.

I spoke to Terry at the Ski SHow a couple of years back and he is mega-knowledgable and clearly has a real passion for what he does. Well worth a visit, I would have thought.

Like your description too - very accurate! 8)

I went to him and they weren't fitted correctly.

I wasted a lot of money on ill fitting boots, and skiing in pain.

I hope you took them back for a refund ?
