They couldn't fit a boot for me. I was there on two occasions. They had one pair for me to try the first visit it didn't work so they ordered another pair. I tried the new pair on the second visit. This pair really hurt my feet and they couldn't make them work. There were many other clients being fitted simultaneously so I'm not confident I received the attention my circumstances warranted. Apparently they didn't have an alternative. They didn't suggest ordering anything else or anywhere else to go. (I wear a women's size 26.5. Hard to find?) I was very disappointed they couldn't find a boot for me especially hearing how great this place was and that they could fit boots for anyone. Not the case. Perhaps they only cater to expert skiers. I left there and went across the street to Epic. They had several boot fitters and all very attentive to their clients. They had at least five options for me to chose from and luckily one fit very nicely. I was able to get custom foot beds as well as a heater placed inside. Much better selection and service by far. Thank you, Mark, at Epic. My dream to get back into skiing is still alive because of you. read more

This shop is great. Larry and his team are craftsmen of the highest quality. They can make any boot comfortable and I am grateful for their passion and expertise. I wouldn't go anywhere else for my fittings. Great shop, great service, great boots. Ski well! read more

This company should be known to anyone looking to get boots that may have little to no experience. What roped me in was a sale that they did not give when I came in. I ended up feeling stuck because they take an initial 49$ to start so they can treat you like shit the entire time your there and make up whatever price they want knowing that your here so you'll buy it kind of thing. They had no boots in my size and I felt at a point that the business sucked so bad I wanted to have them fit my boot and then leave. I felt like the main guy having a huuuuumungous wart over his eye he would grow to have a little compassion. No, dude was piece of shit and so was everyone else. If your looking to pay 49 $ so your stuck with them steering a one boot while ripping you off with horrible customer service not giving an advertised sale while trying to play im not staring at this ridiculous wart on your face game. This is your spot. Like seriously dude why would you not just freeze that thing off... thanks for the uncomfortable time! read more

If you want your ski boots/hockey skates/mountaineering boots to fit like your house slippers go see him. making a mid day appointment mid week will help deal with the crowds. closed on wednesdays. read more

I was able to go in yesterday, Dec 20, get expertly measured and walk out in less than 90 minutes with expertly fitted boots by real pros. You don't know what you are missing if you have never been fitted properly. Larry's passion is skiing, but he loves what he does every day at his shop. His work is thoughtful, expert and refined over decades of delivery. I was helped by one of his protégés, Eric. Larry was available for questions and finer points of delivering the custom fit that goes all day long. See what you are missing. As an advanced skier close to retirement, I appreciated the time, effort and customized service I received. Sadly, you don't get this level of treatment very often. Best to you Larry! read more

Larry's Boot Fitting - Sporting Goods Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

Larry's is the only place you need to go to for Alpine or Telemark ski boots. Grab a chair and let Larry do his magic. He is a true master of fitting ski boots to a person's individual needs and foot shape. I had him refit a few pairs of my boots and can't wait to get on slopes. He takes his time to make sure that every part of your foot is comfortable. Definitely coming back to Larry's new I need new boots. read more

Larry's Boot Fitting - Getting two pairs of Tele boots fitted - Sporting Goods Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

I recently moved to the Denver area from the East and was in need of a new set up for the extreme change in skiing conditions. I was a little skeptical until I began talking to a man who patrolled Vail for ten years and as of right now is on his quest to hike and ski at the Colorado 14ers. If a man that is going to spend that much time in his touring boots hiking steeps for 15 hrs. a day trusts Larry. Then I TRUST Larry! I was interested in a more powder specific boot but, Larry told me that was were I was heading in my skiing but wasn't ready for the huge step down in flex. He put me in a Lange RX 130 with custom foot bed and heat molded shell. Already I feel like these boots are going to be heaven compared to my old Impacts. AWSOME JOB LARRY!! Can't wait to shred the pow!! read more

Very few things in life live up to the hype - but Larry's does. There is basically everything to love about this place - commitment from employees, excellent prices and a vibe of authenticity which is slowly leaving retail. You get pricing comparable to the big dogs with a level of service and technical expertise typically reserved for only the highest end of price points. Make an appointment and block out a couple hours and savor the experience- good things take time. I also enjoyed the ski and boot museum and recognized many of the models from my childhood spent on snow. read more

​ I have been very impressed with these professionals. I say professionals because that's what they are. They know this industry straight up and they're just as focused as getting their customers in the right boots as they are with their own feet. It's busy because they're the best (so bring a book, patience, and some jokes). I wanted to respect Caley's time so I explained my situation in as little time and words as possible but he interrupted me, "Let's start with the most important thing...what's your name?" That first sentence triggered a trust and belief in his work. He did a phenomenal job getting my boots from way too tight to being covered in magical fairy dust to a great fit! He was patient and kind, even though there were many customers waiting. Everyone receives the attention they need. Since the initial fitting, Ian has done a fantastic job ensuring that every aspect of the boot fits my foot, realizing the importance of having comfortable boots for hours in the backcountry. Those guys are totally local superheroes...I'm certain they wear capes in the back of the shop. I experienced a very unfortunate situation in the shop today during which a lady expressed her frustration loudly towards employees. I wish I had talked to her about my experience there and expressed my sorrow for whatever is going on in her life that triggered her to lash out like she did. The employees have enough confidence in their work that they knew that every other customer in there had their backs. Hopefully she realizes how wrong she was and her life goes much better. Thanks my new friends...I've already referred others to you and will continue to do so! High-fives forever. read more

This place is fantastic. It's simple, but you will get an amazing boot fit. They will take however long they need to make sure that you get into a great fitting boot. If things are taking a while, you can even get a beer out of the fridge. It's authentic, and business totally based on service. Do yourself a favor and get in to see the boot fitters at Larry's. read more

This boot shop is what everyone is lookiing for in a boot shop! Expert knowledge, friendly funny, the right choices of boots and an atmosphere of the love of sking and snow sports. Plus you can bring in a beer or few for yourself and others! Nice work Larry! Thanks for all the years! read more

I would echo other reviews here. Terrible service. Long wait to get fitted, no explanation of how their system works, if they have a system. Got boots anyway and needed to leave my skis to have bindings remounted. One employee told me that was included with boot price, then I was later charged $50. Estimate to remount bindings was 2-3 days, but no one called or texted, so I called them to check status and no one answered the phone all day (day after a holiday). No voice mail message box provided. If you like very expensive boots and very poor customer service, this is your place. read more

Just a fantastic customer service experience. Daniel absolutely hooked me up and made my new Lang boots way more comfortable. And hooked me up with an Odell IPA. Skilled and client focused. read more

I bought my boots here two years ago and have come in twice for refitting. They did a great job. Ian helped me out and you can tell how much he cares about his job and getting the fit right. Getting boots here saved me from having to buy a new pair, which I was on the verge of after getting some hardware put in my leg/ankle. Appointments are helpful but they were able to see me within 15 minutes of just walking in without one. I would recommend an appt though. read more

We have been to Larry's twice. Once for my boots and another time for my spouse's boots. If you come in during lunch, Larry buys you pizza. If you come in during happy hour, Larry gives you a beer. If you happen to have studied politics or rhetoric in school, Larry chats you up. If you come in without an appointment, don't expect immediate service (in fact, even if you have an appointment--patience). You will receive special attention once they come to you. Don't be turned off if you walk in and just linger for a while, someone will eventually get to you (but it might be a 15-min/hour or so wait. It's worth the wait! They guarantee their fittings and I love my fitted boots! I've been skiing them since 2012. read more

5 stars, easily. Worth the drive up from Denver for sure. Initially I went to CO Ski & Golf in Littleton, endured 15 mins of "you should've bought this and that, ugh, we can TRY to fit these". Promptly left and drove up to Boulder. Quality work, quick, and great prices. Easily the best boot fitters in Colorado. I took two pairs of boots in -- they fit them both perfectly (performance fit too, not just a gaping fit for comfort), and any additional work I need is free. read more

I've been skiing for many years. I'm also fortunate to have the opportunity to ski 60-70 day a year. I have visited many ski shops that claim to be very experienced in the art of boot fitting. I alway sincerely give each boot fitting professional the chance to inspect my feet and prescribe a plan on how to get the boots to not only fit well, but more importantly allow me to reach my potential as a skier. Larry's shop is exactly what everyone claims them to be. Everyone knows larry is exceptional at what he does but his employees are also exceptional at boot fitting. I was hoping larry himself would work with me but after meeting Evan I was confident I was exactly were I needed to be. He is very knowledgeable about which boots should end up on who's feet. He not only made both pairs of my boots fit well he truly made me feel that making my boots fit perfectly was as important to him as it was to me, at times even more important to him. I strongly recommend Larry's to everyone. This shop has a very important place within the skiing community! Thank goodness for Larry and his band of very professional merry men!!!! Mel from NY....... read more

Save yourself time and go to Larry's first. He did a great job for my wife and I last year. He sent my wife to a different store to buy boots and had her come back to do the fitting. He called first so the boots would be ready when she got there. We bought them almost a year ago and are still talking about our experience at his shop. read more

Larry is the most knowledgeable ski boot fitter there is. Walk in there, tell him what you like to ski, he'll look at your feet, and then you can see the rolodex of ski boots turning through his mind, as he then recommends the perfect pair or two for your feet and your ski style (whether it's race, advanced, groomers, backcountry, or beginner). Even if you just need to improve your current boots, he can work wonders with shaping hot spots from the shell, adjustments or custom footbeds. If you have any issues with your current ski boots, Larry can fix them. read more

Amazing commitment to best thing for each customer. I went in with a terrible pair of boots from another seller -- that they had tried 20 time to fit for me. I told Larry I wanted to start from scratch -- and they told me the damage on the boots done by the other fitters warranted a full return and refund. "We could fit you in a new pair of boots, but they should give you a much better deal with those counting toward the purchase." Larry's team sent me back with a note to the other boot seller saying that I deserved the price of the boots as a credit to the next pair. I can't believe this is how commerce works in this day and age--- but the original store read the note, inspected the workshopmanship done by their fitters, and agreed. They fitted me in brand new boots and gave me the price of the original boots off the new pair. THANK YOU LARRY!! read more

Larry is a god among bootfitters. I bought boots from him quite a few years ago and have stopped in multiple times for tweaks from both him and Barry. A couple weeks ago I came in for new liners but my boots are shot so Larry worked on them a bit to try to get me through this season. I tried to pay him but if you buy your boots from Larry tune ups are always free. Always a fun place to hangout and anytime I was charged for something it was very reasonable. I highly recommend getting footbeds made with your new boots, it's a game changer. I would not recommend getting your ski boots anywhere else, I can't say enough positive things about this shop. read more

Can't say enough good things about this place. I purchased my first boots based on their recommendations last year. This season, my boots were feeling tight due to the thickness of the liner. The staff at Larry's recommended custom liners b/c the tongue of the liner was taking up so much space in my boot. They molded my liners and now my boots are 100x more comfortable. Plus, Larry and the other staff members are always kind and attentive even when busy. They take the time to help you and are always happy to see you back. Plus, you can kick back and finish your beer after hanging out with them. Great people and they will do everything they can to make your boots comfortable!! read more

Whether you are new to owning your own boots or an aspiring pro, Larry is the man for the job. Larry offers an unmatched combination - premier knowledge and skill in his trade combined with friendly service in a laid back atmosphere. I've seen beginners and casual skiers leave in amazement at how comfortable their boots are. While at the same time, as someone that spends over a hundred days a year in his boots, I've been impressed at how Larry's suggestions on the most technical details have taken my game to the next level and allows me to be in my boots day in and day out. Whether you need a new pair of boots or just have a spot on your feet that hurts, do yourself a favor and make an appointment with Larry. Be ready to spend some time there, but it'll go by fast when you're enjoying a beverage, ski movies and meeting other skiers in the area. Plus, you never know what pros might be stopping by to say hi or get some work done on their boots. read more

If you are into performance skiing AND comfort for your feet, Larry's Booting Fitting is the place to go. I've known Larry since he worked at Boulder Ski Deals. He helped my sons and the rest of the local ski team with all their boot fit issues. With Larry's help you can take your skiing to the next level! read more

Larry works miracles on ski boots! He's done lots of work on my boots - custom footbeds, liners, grinding, canting, alignment, you name it. He's the best! I am in my 8th year of teaching skiing and I spend a LOT of time in ski boots. Finally, no pain, no more cold feet, and my skiing has improved immensely with larry correcting my alignment. He's my bootfitter for life! read more

Larry is the best bootfitter around. Not only does he know every boot and what type of foot it fits best, he has all the knowledge and tools to make any small problems in the boots disappear. Yes, you need an appointment. Yes, it takes a couple hours, but there is always ski porn and beer, so who cares. Be assured, you will be treated the same way as an industry insider at the shop. That is just the way Larry operates. I spend about 140 days a year in my boots and there is no one else I would trust- read more

Larry is the man. Renowned as one of the best boot fitters in the country (if not beyond) people come from all over the world to get their boots fitted at his shop. Definitely get an appointment but be prepared to wait as Larry spends ample time with each customer to get their ski boots fitted correctly. You won't be disappointed. read more

Super chill and super competent. A rare and pleasant combination that's an asset to the community. Be prepared to spend some time here, but it's well worth it and the prices are definitely reasonable. read more

Normally I wouldn't pile on with all this love for Larry's, but this store really deserves it. I don't know how they keep the passion going year after year, but it's there alive and well. Easily the best ski boot place this side of the Milky Way Galaxy. We all know that most people at other shops are complete morons and have no idea how to really fit a boot, the most important part of your gear!! So if you want to trust some kid or lazy ignorant non-passionate adult, don't go here. But if you want to enjoy skiing and love your boots, while having the confidence in the fit...the money is well worth it. read more

These guys are all well trained, and they know what they are doing. And if you're ankles or feet are challenging for some reason, or you bring in used boots from craigslist that need to be reworked, Larry and his crew go the extra mile and give you great advice while doing it. I had a tough pair of used alpine touring boots that took extra work. Larry made custom foot beds and got me set up right. I also have new downhill boots fit by Larry's staff. (Note: if Larry himself works on your boots, talk philosophy with him while he's at it. You'll get back more than you expect, and if you are open and paying attention, you'll learn something.) read more

Heather, Barry and Caley are an experienced, professional team, working in a relaxed atmosphere while delivering superior service at a very reasonable price. Will never go anywhere else for bootfitting - Larry's is simply the best. read more

I would never ski in boots without a Larry fitting! Keep going back till you get it right- they'll be there. Larry's is a boulder gem

Larry has been fitting me in Tele boots for over 20 years. I would not even think of going to see any one else.......

By far the best experience I've ever had. My boots fit like a glove. Larry's extremely personable and the staff are very knowledgeable.

5 Stars on every review, that doesn't surprise me. I couldn't think of why someone would have a problem with their experience at Larry's. The staff is very knowledgable, friendly, and patient. I got the custom insoles, which I highly recommend to make long days in ski boots much more comfortable. When fitting your boots they really know what they are doing and are patient when you come back for minor tweaks, just let them know how it feels and they will make your boots fit like a glove. read more

Maybe the best ski boots guys in the business. I won't buy ski boots from anywhere else. They care for their customer and really understand what is best for you. Very impressive. read more

Larry is as good as they get. Just tell him how it feels and what you ski and soon you will be skiing more comfortably not to mention better. Patience is required but it is always fun to talk to the other customers since they are sure to be dedicated skiers too. read more

I will preface this by noting that Larry himself was not in the shop the day I visited so if Larry's is great because of Larry that may explain it. Regardless, if not Larry personally, this review reflects his employees and the way he runs his business. I should also note that I took in a pair of brand new boots I had purchased at another local shop. I merely wanted to work with an expert fitter to make them as comfortable as possible. First off, on the recommendation of their website I called ahead to make an appointment and was told they had two availabilities, both several days out. They took my name and contact number, but when I arrived there was no receptionist or really anyone paying attention to who walked in the door, so I just stood at the counter until I was noticed. I was then told "take a seat anywhere" and someone will be with you. Not a huge deal but honestly, why do they bother taking appointments if that's how they're going to work it? After waiting while the tech helped another customer, he came over to me and asked if they were sold out of my size, implying they sold the same boots but noting that I had not purchased them there. He pulled the liner out of one boot, had me put my foot in, and did what seemed to me a very cursory check. Literally within a second he told me in no uncertain terms that I needed a size smaller and I should return them. Had he asked me why I was there, which he did not, he would have learned that the boots actually felt very snug, even a bit tight in spots. I should also mention that before buying these I visited two reputable ski shops in the area (not chain stores), both took the time to actually measure my foot, and both recommended the size I ultimately bought. I explained all this but apparently my opinion was irrelevant and he flat out told they would never fit right and he could not help me. Needless to say, my boots, my money, and I all walked out the door. I will not be returning the boots nor will I be returning to Larry's. As an aside: when you arrive at the location what you'll find is a business called "Larry's Boot and Ski" not "Larry's Bootfitting" as it ubiquitously appears online. Perhaps if you purchase your boots there the fitting option is more forthcoming. read more

The team here knows boot fitting as well as anyone in the business - at least that's my opinion after 45+ years around the ski biz - both as a consumer as well as one who worked in it. They really try to understand the problem and not make generalizations or assumptions of boot problems. Really a patient crew. Unlike another shop in town that we visited 5 separate times to get this latest issue resolved, where they gave me one idea one time (like, it just needs to pack in some more - after 12 full days of skiing!!!) and contradictory information at other times (they were basically just guessing) - the crew at Larry's asked the right questions, and continually worked on things over the next (almost) 90 minutes to continually try changes until things were right. This shop is focused on boots and getting the right ones and the right fit. Most other "mass market" shops simply don't have the time, patience, or skills to do this as their main line business. Sure, other shops do have great bootfitters, but it's a a crapshoot there - you may get that right person at the big shop, you might not. Not with Larry's - true pros. read more

Larry did an awesome job fitting my boots. I was having a lot of arch pain and with custom foot beds and heat molding of my liners they are feeling much better. Appointments aren't exact so be prepared to wait, it will be worth it! read more
