Poster: A snowHead
|
I'm going to Sauze the first week of March and I was hoping to get some new boots fitted. Does anyone have recommendations for a good bootfitter there?

I would drop a note to James of Sauze online - weather reports, airport transfers, ski school etc fame and ask his advice. he's been based out thee for umpteeen years...

They all do.
Faure rental shop is in the main Assietta (just up from hotel Assietta). They have the Ingham's contract.
Besson have a shop 50 yds up the road opposite Miravalinos bar.
They may have other stores too.
Clataud certainly do, I see many of their bags on arrival day, and think they have several rental locations.
Not sure there's much to choose between them, but Federico who runs Faure used to race (as did Snr Besson...) And their staff are pretty friendly.

Thanks for that. I guess I'm just weary about shelling out a good bit of money somewhere that don't do much dedicated bootfitting, but then again these shops probably couldn't operate without the rental side.
I went to Bootlab in Courveval and have since found out they sold me boots that were way too big for my skinny narrow legs/feet. So a bit apprehensive about that happening again.
If they were ski racers though surely they understand how important it is.
Based on Google reviews alone, I'd probably lean more towards Besson.
Another option is to just rent from them and keep trying different boots rather than buy.
