Custom Boot Fitting
Buying boots here isn't picking a box off a shelf. Every pair comes with a fitting built around your feet, your stance, and how you ski.
We measure, watch you stand and flex, and shell-check you in boots straight off our stocked wall, so the boot matches your foot instead of the size on the box.
Heel-Loc footbeds cast with your foot unweighted, shell punches and grinds, liner molding, and ZipFit liners when they help.
Take them up the hill, then bring them back. We're minutes from the lifts and keep adjusting until you stop thinking about your boots.
Proprietary technology
Buck Brown spent more than twenty years refining Heel-Loc. Your foot is cast unweighted, so the footbed supports its natural shape for alignment, comfort, and power transfer.
Explore boot fittingPunches, grinds, and liner molding for pressure points, width, and heel hold.
Cork-composite liners that keep adapting to your feet over the season.
Bring in your current boots and we'll tell you honestly whether they can be made to fit.
