Customer Pete: "Hi. I just wanted to give a massive shout out to Brooke at your Queenstown store. I had been riding in absolute pain for two days and was ready to throw my new boots in the bin. I dropped into the store and explained to Brooke the issues I was having. She was super helpful and knowledgeable and identified the issue pretty quickly. I was skeptical that the custom insoles would work - but I was so wrong. From the moment I laced up I could feel a difference and it saved my holiday. It means so much when you get the right advice. Thanks Brooke"

STEPS TO A PERFECT FIT :

Step1: Analysis - Our expert boot-fitters will discuss your history and preferences with ski and snowboard boots, assess your shape, size and biomechanics of your foot.

Step 2:  Selection - We will select a range of boots from our extensive range that match your requirements. This will ensure the correct fit and amount of space in the boot.

Step 3: Footbeds – A footbed is essential in the boot to ensure increased comfort, performance and alignment while decreasing fatigue. We have a large selection of options and use premium materials to ensure the perfect fit

Step 4: Customisation – All boots go through a custom heat moulding process. Further customisation can be done if needed. Stretching and grinding to make sure the boot is sitting perfectly is common for a full custom fit.

Step 5: Comfort Fit Guarantee – Every boot we sell is fully guaranteed for fit when purchased with a custom footbed. It is common for boots to need adjustment after a few days. The boots can be dropped back into store and they will be ready to collect the next morning at no charge.
