where to buy snowboard boots?

Hi Guys,


I have been trying for weeks to buys snowboard boots.  However I have big feet and I can not find a single shop in the Nyon/Geneva area that stocks boots in my size - except for the occasional super cheap beginner model.


Can anybody recommend a specialist snowboard shop that caters for people who are outside the average?


Please don't recommend online shops - I want to try on before I buy.


Cheers

Try Lanches in Annemasse - they're reopened now for the season, and offer a boot fitting service.

Give "Ski 137" in Versoix a call to see if they stock your size... if so they have great service and top specialist brands for both ski and board.


Alternatively, if you have a car, it could be worth calling some ski shops in some larger resorts (Verbier, Nendaz etc - I mention 4 valleys since there is a large snowboard following who ski this domain, plus it hosts the X Games ) and seeing if they stock your size beyond beginner boots. Most of the shops advertise on the resorts websites. Often theyre not that much more expensive than Geneva shops, and it could be a nice afternoon trip on a Saturday.
