Thank you to Robin of Lockwoods for sorting both me and my boots out! :D :D :D Job done!

My boots felt really loose around my right ankle last season which I broke a few years ago. I agree with Bandit that maybe liners could be changed / remoulded.

I have enough of an excuse now to buy a pair so I am going to in resort in St Anton.


My g*d your brave Stewart !!
Hope you manage to get some private time to choose without the entourage tagging along adding their twopenorth (actually more like 50 bob with that crowd!!)

How rude.

Now why, tell me, would "that entourage" want to be tagging along with Stewart whilst there is either valuable skiing time or drinking time?

I'm not convinced he needs new boots as it happens, but what do I know? He needs to find a decent shop and spend a while with a good fitter to find whats right for him if thats what he wants. It might be something as simple as blowing the linings and inserting a footbed.
