Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Boots are not something to scrimp on. Saving a few pounds may prevent you from progressing in skiing.
You need to get the boots that fit you best - every brand and model have a slightly different fit, and getting the fit right is crucial.
Also, you need to try boots on before buying them. This is particularly true of buying used boots - because their previous owner will have worn them, then they won't have the same fit as the new version of them.
Basically, don't buy without trying the boot on first.
