This is my 7th full season on my Dalbello shells / Zip Fit Liners that Jacques personally fit for me. I’m an aggressive skier, 6’2, 220 lbs. … read more I don’t meet many people that ski faster. I have a house in Winter Park and normally get 30-45 days in per year. I like to spend a lot of time in the bumps and trees when conditions are right. I can tell you quite simply, these boots are the absolute best $900 you will spend. They will change how you ski. They will change how you feel after you ski. They will allow you to get the most out of the $1000 skis attached to your feet and they will come back day after day, without packing out and without developing hot spots. I seriously question the other reviews on this post. Winter Park is a small town. These reviews sound more like a disgruntled former employee than an actual customer. For instance, earlier this season, I stoppped by Jacques’ shop with the intention of purchasing new shells. After +/- 300 days, my black shells look like they went to war. Jacques took a look at them, made a few adjustments and told me I still had 1-2 seasons left. There was no charge. I was ready to drop $400 buck on shells but I’m still happily wearing what may be the ugliest boots on the mountain! If you’re looking to improve your skiing, decrease your chances of injury and get the most out of the engineering that went in to your skis – and your body – this is the absolute best way to go. My wife is on her fifth year on her Dalbello / Zip Fit boots and she tells people that Le Feet Lab changed her life. She was ready to give up on downhill skiing as she was always having boot issues. Not anymore. Yes. They’re expensive – but so is knee surgery or wasted ski passes because your feet hurt. These boots are an investment in your health, comfort and safety. You get what you pay for and when you consider what you get, these boots are a great investment. If I lost these boots, I would not even consider going to a ski shop and purchasing off the rack from a 24 year old boot fitter (no offense). I would head straight back to Le Feet Lab and purchase again – no question about it. Very highly recommended – and I am a real person, real customer – with no affiliation to the shop. My email is fort collin skier at gmail – (no spaces, obviously) – if you have any questions.

Was about to return the Lupos I bought in Denver but after getting them fitted here they ended up being the best pair of boots I’ve ever had. I… read more noticed an immediate increase in my skiing ability having such a well fitting, tight boot.

My Dalbello ski boots, custom fitted by Jacques 12 years ago, have kept me skiing! Years ago ski rental shops and other skiers had recommended Le Feet Lab to me… read more because I was trying to jam a full length custom leather orthotic into my ski boots. I had been unsuccessfully renting oversized boots to accommodate my old deteriorating leather orthotics and needless to say, I had no control on the slopes and about gave up skiing. So far my custom boots have held up great for 12 years and I’m still hitting the slopes – with my grandkids. But the best part about Le Feet Lab is their custom made orthotics. In the past I had used chiropractors and podiatrists to make custom leather orthotics that didn’t hold up and also didn’t correct my foot problems very well. Now I refer people to Le Feet Lab all the time if they really want help to fix their foot problems. As a RN I have seen foot problems eventually cause knee, hip, and back trouble. Without my custom Le Feet Lab Orthotics, I suffer knee and hip pain, as well as my shoes wear out prematurely and unevenly across the bottom of the sole. I know I’m in proper alignment because my shoes last forever now. I am truly thankful for the orthotics that Jacques and Jacqueline custom make. I wish everyone with any kind of foot problem could see Le Feet Lab for custom orthotics before they develop orthopedic ankle, knee, hip, or back problems. Jacques and Jacqueline need to train the medical community how to make custom orthotics that prevent deterioration of the musculoskeletal system and associated pain. I am not a person who normally writes reviews but I am writing this to let everyone know about their exceptional services; they have helped me so much!

Went in here trying to figure out why my boots were killing me, turns out they were 2 sizes too big. The lady (didn’t catch her name) got me fixed… read more up with a new pair in less than 10 minutes even adjusted my bindings on my skiis for the new boots! Her customer service was phenomenal and now anytime I need boot related things, this will be the place I return to! Don’t miss out on this amazing shop!

I came to Le Feet seeking a solution to my ill fitting boots – I could ski full days but they hurt. I was fortunate to work with Jacques who… read more minced no words in telling me that the boots were too big, nothing could fix that and I had to get a new pair. My new boots are two sizes smaller! I ended up paying about $1300 for my Lupo AX 120s with zipliners and custom footbed, a little more than the one grand price tag that had been indicated to me. While the price difference rankled me for a few days after purchase, I need to say that the boots have made a huge difference in my skiing just like Jacques had said – I could feel the increased responsiveness of my skis in the first few turns. I no longer have to lean super far forward to initiate turns. Jacques is a master of his trade and it is apparent how much he cares about his craft. I value the pro tips I got about boot wear and care – no long johns below boots, only thin socks and I ended up buying the heated boot bag as well. The heated bag made the break in much much easier than it would have been otherwise – the first day I couldn’t ski beyond an hour with un-heated boots. In the end, my boots feel extremely snug around my feet and I’m grateful to have worked with Jacques.

They are patient, thorough, knowledgeable, and reasonable. Their insoles and adjustments have made my boots pain free. Thank you.
