FAQs
Does the Skiis & Biikes Boot Fit Guarantee work for online purchases?
Because we haven't seen your feet, we can't guarantee the fit. Ski boots purchased through the Skiis & Biikes online store don’t qualify for our Boot Fit Guarantee. If your boots need adjusting, we’d be happy to help, but the service is not complimentary. If the boots are unworn (around the house is okay), and brought back to a Skiis & Biikes location within 30 days we can suggest another boot that will be covered under our Boot Fit Guarantee.
If I don’t like my ski boots can I return them?
If the ski boot is not worn or modified you can return it in 14 days for money back and 30 days for in store credit. Our ski boot guarantee allows you to buy with confidence. If our bootfitters recommend and fit a ski boot which is found to be uncomfortable out on the slopes, bring them in. The bootfitter will work to fix the performance and comfort issues through modification of the shell, liner or footbed. Getting the best fitting boot takes time and a couple sessions may be necessary. If the boot is still uncomfortable we will switch out the ski boot with another model for a better fit.
How long does a bootfit take?
This depends on you needs, your feet and your body mechanics. A beginner bootfit with good alignment, a trim-to-fit footbed and common foot dimensions will take about 30min. A custom, complex, racer or uncommon foot shape bootfit can take about 2 hours.
Can I schedule a bootfit?
Yes. To make a bootfit appointment call your local store and speak to one of our bootfitters to go-over needs and their availability. Bootfit appointments are only available on weekdays.
What days are the best to get a bootfit?
Monday to Wednesday, September 15 to November 15 are the best days and times of the year to come in for a bootfit. We are typically less busy at these times and we have all the stock for the best choice.
