Boot fitters???

Rushski · Oct 16, 2005, 10:02 AM

Still recuperating from my Achilles tendon surgery on June 1st. Surgeon added some extra cadaver tendon to augment my re-attached tendon. Because of this, I have a nice large lump above my heel of extra tendon. As my Sally boots were on the tight side to begin, I feel the need to get some work done on my liner. Will probably do it in November as I will be 95% and should have no swelling by then...

Any suggestions on what shop has a good boot fitter that could do a little liner stretching or such? Bought them at Buchikka's a few years ago and heard they were decent at it, but curious if there are others or better in the So. NH/Northeastern MA area?

Rushski,
There's Greg Hoffman at www.gmolfoot.com(shop is @base of Stratton Mtn., Bondville, VT.) Call and set up apptmnt with him. He's gone this next week [or two]??-->skiing...and there are undoubtedly others around the NE. There's a Keith @Hunter Mtn. that has been mentioned. You might want to post something over on Epicski too, many instructors & boot guys & names to call.
