Hi All
I've recently been diagnosed with plantar fasciitis in my heal, the podiatrist is kitting me out with molded inner soles for everyday use, but given the pain I experienced at the Hemel ski test, its safe to say I'll need some for my ski boots aswell.
Can anybody recommend a place in South London or Surrey that can do this? (The closer to Sutton the better).
Thanks

@Kelv1n, Not actually South London, but Profeet in Fulham should be able to sort you out.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Europa Ski Lodge in Tolworth might be the nearest place, they are generally very helpful

Profeet are great, my ski boots are spot on. Good luck!

Have not been overly impressed with Profeet myself - my ski touring boots still give me blisters after returning 3 times for adjusting.

@musehead, same with every bootfitter. Excellent reviews on the whole but there are always some people who aren't happy. I wouldn't go anywhere else

Profeet did the wifes boots and she rates them and the service she had. Sutton eh? We are in Carshalton.

Hmm. I have been thinking of Profeet. Quite a long journey especially bearing in mind the possibilities of return visits, though.

+1 for Profeet, great for a free MOT as well, - sort the buckles, tell you not to spend any money for a year etc.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Profeet again. They do all of our boots and in fact rectified a terrible job by Snow &a Rock on a friend's boots too. My American in laws get their boots done by them when they visit us too.
Pricey, but if you have problem feet like me (flat, wide and pronated with no arch whatsoever), their boot fitting is transformative.

Surefoot also in Fulham...excellent.

You know it makes sense.

@Richard_Sideways, I'm actually in Carshalton aswell (right beside the Leasure Center), very small world
I've heard good things about Profeet before, so will give them a try first..

Otherwise you'll just go on seeing the one name:

Another vote for Profeet. They kitted me out with footbeds, which were subsequently approved by CEM (can't say fairer than that) and did themselves out of a boot sale by saying the old ones would do for a bit. I felt slightly guilty when I eventually got new boots in Bicester.
