Poster: A snowHead

Looking for a boot fitter somewhere in the North West, ideally Liverpool/Mancheser area. Help would be appreciated.

thunderer, Try Graham Pugh the owner at Rivington Alpine, it's near Bolton/Chorley just off the M61. Open Sundays, give him a call.

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

Outdoor Action, Blackburn two blokes Mark or Ken. They also have some great deals on gear. Have a look up stairs in the sale items. I got a pair of Sprayway salopettes for a fiver, a mountain equipment fleece for a tenner and a Helly Hansen ski jacket for seventeen quid. Can't go wrong.

Thanks guys, Rivington looks just the job.
The problems we are trying to solve:
1. Wifes boots new at start of last season used for 6 weeks skiing, she is now complaining that her heel is lifting and foot sliding forwards, boots have to done up very tightly to prevent, this stopping circulation, will a boot fitter be able to resolve ?.
2. My boots are slightly to tight on a spot just below my inner ankle bone. Can the boot be stretched to accomadate ?

You'll need to Register first of course.

On the wires boots it sounds like they are a little big, might be possible to put some padding in but it will never be a substitute for the correct size/shape
On your boots that is a pretty simple stretch for a boot fitter, make sure your foot is stable on a footbed before you have the shell stretched
Good luck getting it sorted

CEM, Thanks for that. I suspect you are correct on my wifes boots, the problem I guess is that they need to be a little tight at the beginning, do you think?.
