I went to the Chertsey branch on the 12th July 2025 for a custom ski boot fitting where it was mentioned on their website that they provided custom molded footbeds where the insoles are shaped specifically to the contours of your feet. The member of staff who I had to wait 1 hrs and 10 minutes to turn up said that I didn't need it and only measured my feet from heel to toe via a foot ruler. He gave me 3 ski boots to choose from. In the end I purchased a pair of Atomic ATO Hawx Prime 120 S gw ski boots and I used them for my ski trip to Mayrhofen in Austria. I had nothing but issues with these ski boots. They kept getting loose around my lower shins and I constantly had to readjust the buckles gettting them more and more tight but to no avail as the skis eventually kept getting unstable when I wanted to carve or go downhill. This could have all been avoided had the member of staff provided the custom molded footbed service which I was happy to pay extra for but I feel like he couldn't be bothered and therefore fobbed me off. I have tried calling the branch numerous times, spoke to the cotswold head office and have sent a couple of emails over a week ago but no response which leads me to think they really can't be bothered. I went to the Hemel Hempstead branch today and told them the situation. The member of staff found out that the boots I bought from Chertsey were the wrong fit as in too big around my lower shins and that I needed custom fitted insoles. This service was provided at a discount which im appreciative of and I ended up leaving with a pair of Salomon ski books which feel snug, comfortable, light and a very good fit. If you need ski boots fitted go to the Hemel Hempstead branch. Do not bother going to the Chertsey branch
