Collected my shiny new DaleBoots today after a 90min fitting at Outdoor Traders in Abingdon......OMG! After 5 years of pain and daily OD of nurofen, they are like wearing an old pair of slippers. No pressure points, numbness or discomfort of any kind.....they even realign my "knock" right knee.
Two trips from Edinburgh and 3 hours of measuring and fitting later.........My expectations have been well and truly surpassed.
Service was fantastic....measured and ordered on December 18th....made in Austria to arrive in England on Jan 3rd
Many thanks to CEM at solutions4feet for recommending Daleboots (nothing else was going to work) and to James and team at outdoor traders.....
Of course I haven't actually worn them in anger. 7.30am flight tomorrow to Morzine for a week of punishing tests will complete the appraisal

Well done, SP. CEM has helped a good number of friends, often, like yourself, indirectly.
When I bought my boots, now 25 years old, they were like slippers, so you are in appreciative company. I have never understood why people should accept less.
It does disappoint how poorly Edinburgh is served for skiers. It is a short train journey for me, but would offer nobenefits.
Now go out and ski well!

After a week of hard skiing, the Daleboots are fantastic! Day 1 was a bit concerning - left foot very tight (larger size than right foot) but from day 2 the boots very super comfy.
After many years of pain my skiing has improved as the boots re-align my stance and I can relax and enjoy the experience all day everyday.
Can't recommend them enough.
