Has anyone noticed or has anyone fitted/seen a size 15 ski boot as i'm worried that I won't get any ski boots for my son if trying to find shoes here is to go by!re: Large size ski boots
Prob have to prebook sizes that big.re: Large size ski boots
Gidday Jay. Contact them in advance to make sure they have a size 15 for you. Most shops only hold up to a size 31.5mondo (approx UK13). Ski hire companies will normally hold a couple of larger pairs in their stock but check first as it's not a size that is easy to find if the ski hire havent got them.re: Large size ski boots
Just another idea Jay. You can get upto a size 16 to hire in the UK. If you want security before you go away you can give these guys a try.http://www.edge2edge.co.uk/hire/browse.php/boots_ski/

HiIf you do that, I'd still warn them beforehand to make sure they have ski bindings to fit.
re: Large size ski boots
we never saw any size 15 my brother is a 16 and the only place for ski boots that size was in the states (due to fitting them before wearing he has never been skiing). in fact its the best place for any shoes or trainers that big. we looked when we were out there at the largest size avalible it seemed to be a 12 might have had the odd 13 but don't think you have much chance of a 15 i would ask your tour opperator to try and find out for you before you go, if not start searching the internet ...

Chop your toes off.re: Large size ski boots
Thanks know how you feel my son is 13, 6'1and size 15 and they still say he has five years of growing left!re: Large size ski boots
Jay,I've had a look around. In my view and it's just me, I feel you would be better of hiring skis and boots in the UK. Edge2edge do a size 15 boot and will therefore have skis set up to take this size boot. Might be more expensive but it's piece of mind.
