Product/Skill: Hill Walking boots Interest: Walking
To give us the best possible chance to get that 'perfect fit' try and follow as many of the following:
• Come in with your favourite pair of walking socks- Better still consider a new pair (Treat your feet!) as we have all been guilty of wearing socks far beyond their used by date
• Try to come in having spent time on your feet - ideally if you can go for a walk before coming into store your feet will be prime for fitting.
• Allow plenty of time, there are no prizes for finishing quickly. Instead take time to make the right informed decision.
• Check your nails don't need trimming, it is likely you will only get a little on the embarrassed side and they tend to get in the way ... all be it just a little.
• Be sure not to come in with fresh or healing blisters - a foot in pain is never a good starting point for a boot fit.
Most importantly - have confidence in our abilities. All staff are given full footwear fitting inductions that have come out of our years of experience as a leading Outdoor specialist, all training is also followed up on a regular basis. Not only is training provided but staff are selected based on their experience as outdoor enthusiasts, meaning your not speaking to somebody who ‘talks the talk’ but has … walked the walk!
