I am considering buying some ski touring boots. I have short, wide feet with bumps so would like to find a shop with a good boot fitter and a decent range of touring boots.
I am based in London but happy to travel a couple of hours if necessary. Can anyone recommend a suitable shop?

You could do much worse than Ski Bartlett. They know their stuff and will spend as long as required to get a good fit

I'll second Ski Bartlett. Spot on fitting last year and good advice. Make sure you book a fitting off though!

And a third vote. Both my wife and I have had boots from there and their workshop saved a pair of skis after others had butchered the drilling: highly recommended.

They have instituted a booking fee for fittings appointments though - £50 up front - but you get this knocked off boots if/when you buy.

Wow, sounds like Bartlett is the place to go, are you all on commission?

I had not heard of them before but they certainly have a good selection on their web site. I will give them a call to book an appointment.

Thanks for your help

Profeet are worth considering. http://www.profeet.co.uk/ski-boot-range

I can vouch for them too! Have had two pairs from them and both have been spot-on.

They also let my dog in during fittings, fed him water and me coffee!

Have booked fitting at Bartletts since they have a really good selection of touring boots and tehy were very helpful on phone. Profeet seemed more limited.

Thanks to all for the suggestions.
