dean71,
Hi.
There are a couple of stickys at the top of this section which should give you more than you want to know on the subject.
Anything more specific and someone should be able to answer.

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

FWIW the hire gear at Glenshee is dismal.

Where are you? While I am sure that CEM is excellent, Bicester may not be convenient.
Go to a shop which sells a decent range of boots, and which has a decent fitter. If you tell us where you are, someone may be able to point you in the right direction. If you're near Perth, then Banks' have a good reputation; Craigdons appear to have a good range but I know nothing of their expertise (which may exceed Banks' - I really don't know). Elsewhere, I have no idea.

dean71, guessing you are local ish to genshee, if so craigdon in either perth or aberdeen have probably the best fitters in the area, be aware that the boot which is right will feel a little too small when you first put it on, your toes will hit the front when you go in to it at first but when it is clipped up and the liner has warmed up a bit with the heat of your foot it should settle down and you should have a bit of wiggle room around the toes (not too much mind) so give it time to warm up rather than dismissing a boot as soon as you put your foot in it
good lukc getting sorted
