chect2000, Another vote for Franke at Nevada Sports. (Rue de la Poste IIRC) Take the street up the hill to the right of the Intersport shop. (past the Jam Bar).

CEM and lower, I have tried phoning the number for Nevada Sports: 0033 479065154. No one answers.
I have emailed nevada@bootsfitignes.com, but this was returned "host not found"
bootsfitignes.com is listed as an expired domain name.
Is this shop still going?

the shop was open in January last year when I got my boots there, and I'm sure other people have since posted that they've bought there. He does shut for lunch from about 12 till 3 french time, maybe you could try calling earlier or later? Or PM Stewart Woodward, Mrs W, george_1 or any othe current Tignes residents and see if they can help?

CEM, got through at last this evening. Pleasant lady anwered.
Others have recommended JoJo (George?), but it seems he left some time ago.
Franke is still there.
Now I just have to book a time - tricky . . . .
Don't want to miss any skiing time (still got ancient Nordicas), don't want to miss any apres ski drinkies, or bath, or dinner . . . .
I wonder if he does breakfast fittings?

Jonpim, are you planning to buy new there or have some adjusting done? (I only ask because I am planning to take wife and No. 2 son to him in April when we are there for new boots).
