 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi there, i am living in aix en provence and looking for a good boot shop/ fitter nearby, i am willing to travel up to 2.5 hours, so as far as grenoble or serre chevalier/montgenevre. Preferable it would be open in september, allthough i could wait until the start of the season if it is worth the wait.
So, can any of you help me out on this one? any help would be much appreciated.

Stevvo, Welcome to 
I live down South as well and wouldnt dream of going anywhere other than these guys Smallzookeeper and Nakedzookeeper ( click on the blue lettering for their website) in Chamonix . Both can be sent private messages via this site ie. Snowheads, with those names. . Many here have been 'fitted' by them ...

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

That could actually work out really well, my grandparents are in chamonix at the moment, and my father will probably be driving up there sometime this week to see them.
Is this foot-works shop open this week?
thanks,
Stevvo.

Stevvo, Undoubtedly .. although youd have to ask them if they have 2009 stock in yet .. send Steve and/or Gus a pm via their site ... they're either working or out on MTBs !

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Stevvo, if you can't make it up to Chamonix, Bruno Bornecat here in the Serre Che is a great bootfitter who managed to help transform my skiing 3 years ago. I don't think he will be open 'till the end of November though.

Stevvo, Sidas is located just out of Grenoble... They do footbeds etc for french team.... Easiski may remember details or they are in the phone book and on the net.... They have a podiatrist - who will do a footbed and then they can fit boots as well.... Very good although not discount...

Ok so i went to foot-works, got there just before they where closing down for a month, the guy that fit them was leaving for the caribean to work on yaughts soon also. The boots fit real good and got a decent discount because they where clearing out stock, so thanks for the recommendation.
