i called the us site office and they want $30 for postage witch takes them out of my price range ..pity thou cause they are far cheaper...

yes she was shown how to adjust them ect the soles were off the shelf told they were like that memory foam and i am sure they said £60 of the shelf but the boots it might just be her not used to them yet...

yes she got the full fitting they even put the boots onto a heater as well that made them feel good not sure if its just because she likes her trainers so much she compares the 2 lol but thanks for the advice about the socks

hi i am looking for a couple of pairs of smartwool PHD med ski socks for my partner in a size 7 .if anyone has supplus stock i would be willing to offer a fair price for a couple of pairs as most i have looked at costing around £15 have sold out in the size i want on the net ...pm me if you have any :-)

Thanks for that the socks should be fine as they used them in shop for fit as for ellis warenty i thought it was causing the numbness due to her just starting to wear them .. will keep our eye on it thou ..

hi have you ever thought of lapland i was at levi with inghams and it can be pricey but great snow and lots of good different runs plus lots to do when not sking ...good luck

hi me and my family have just done ski lessons at our local xscape centre its a indoor snow place and we found if you can take lessons first thing in the morning and you will find you usually get a 1 on 1 with the instuctor and now its low sesson so its the best time to do it. i was hopless when i 1st started the instuctor said i looked like a windmill going down the slope .. i had a few falls but great fun all the same have a laugh and take it step by step the lessongs cost $24 for a hour each then a 10%discount on next lesson, hope you have fun ...get to tk max for your gear as they sell quality stuff at good price or go into the net and buy it at good prices while the summer sales are one but dont worry about the botts just now hope this helps ..from a beginer :)

Hi Everyone

this is my first forum and i need some advice . we are a family of total beginers and we have taken lessons at the local xcape centre and after a load of hard work and falls we have now managed to reach the standard of being let lose alone.. I bought my partner a nice pair of ski boots at ellis binghams as a reward due to her feet hurting with the hire boots, and feeling cold. :( Due to us going to lapland ..levi and have heard it was cold the girl in the shop said we should buy my girlfriend them smartwool phd ski socks at £18 and have a set of sole liners put in that will mould into her foot shape but they are £60 ..do you think she needs those things as she has to wear the boots for 15hours untill she get used to them now she says her feet go numb while she does her ironing with them on any thoughts on the matter...ps sorry its such a long mail... :)
