mikes781 Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 Anyone have a boot fitter that they like in the area? My boots are starting to have a little play in the heel and I’d like to have my alignment checked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justo8484 Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 who knows what the ski shop scene looks like next year, but i trust adam at buckmans in whitehall. not sure how frequently he works though, since it's not his full time job. tyler in ardmore is great, but i'm 99.9% sure he won't be working at the shop next year. i'd love to get my hands back into the bootfitting game but i don't have the time for a part time job right now. first step would be getting an aftermarket footbed in your boot if you don't already have one. even a set of superfeet will be much, much better than whatever came stock in your boot.

I did get a costume footbed done from The Boot Pro in Ludlow, VT two years ago and it helped stabilize things. I have one foot is a little larger than the other and was sized based off of it. Probably should have gone with what fit the smaller foot and had the boot for the other one punched out. They aren’t too far off each other but I’m starting to notice a little movement with less than 30 days in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way easier to make a boot bigger than smaller, within reason. Some high density foam rubber pads can probably take up some of the space.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikes781 Posted April 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 Ended up seeing Billy Kaplan’s name mentioned in a few locations and had a nice long talk with him this morning. Going to set up an assessment with him later this summer assuming we get out of this virus situation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theprogram4 Posted December 31, 2023 Report Share Posted December 31, 2023 I’ve been spending a lot on paper towels as the waterproofing on my boots is shot.
