I went to Elite Feet at Squaw Creek today to get some custom setup done on boots that I had just purchased online. I had purchased boots and had fittings done before at their Northstar location (no longer there), so I knew these guys know their stuff! I found out that my new boots have "Gripwalk" soles, a new standard in the last few years that is NOT compatible with older bindings. But the front and rear soles on the bottom of the boot "can" be replaced with the older style "Mountain DIN". Since I have several pairs of skis, I didn't want to replace ALL of my bindings, and one guy DID find the replacement soles to make it work!! AWESOME! Remy was the main guy I worked with, and he really knew his stuff and presented options. Highly Recommended!!!

My friend ended up buying some new ski boots here. It was a wonderful experience from start to finish. John was helpful and patient. He wanted her to find the best boots for her needs. I cannot recommend Elite Feet enough. They are awesome!

So didn’t get our boots here…yet…but met Remy on the lifts while he was getting some turns during lunch and he kindly gave my daughter Anya some quick pointers. Great guy, spent some of his valuable lunch time helping my 16 year old. Will definitely come here for our boots when it’s time! Thanks Remy!

I had a great experience buying ski boots here! I've purchased repeatedly from Elite Feet over the years.My old boots were packed out, so I knew it was time, but when a buckle sheared off it became a more immediate need. I tried to go to the old Northstar village location of Elite Feet where I'd had great success in the past, but it's a new shop with different folks, offering super expensive custom fittings and not offering my preferred brand.I headed over to the Resort at Palisades' Elite Feet shop, where they were kind, helpful, and did just what I wanted: got me the newer, higher performance version of my old boots. They confirmed fit, did a great heat-custom-molding of the inner lining, removed the "spoiler" that made the calf area thicker (my calves needed more space), adjusted my bindings to fit the boots (remember to bring your skis!), and sent me off to give the boots a try on the slopes: offering adjustments if I needed them. (I haven't needed them!)Thanks to Christian and Brook for their great service.

Any adjustments to the boots come included with the initial purchase - very quick and helpful.

I bought my boots from Elite Feet a few seasons ago, & they needed an adjustment (were causing me pain in the toe area). I wasn't sure if an adjustment would even help....but Remi fixed all of the issues. New soles & an adjustment did wonders! Boots are totally comfortable now, & that translates to what I can feel with my ski. He listened to what I was experiencing & then discussed what could be done. His service was so friendly, & knowledgeable; & it's led to better skiing! Thank you, Remi!

Remy spent 3 hours with me patiently finding the right fit for my fused ankle. I ended up spending more money on my boots than I bargained for but the following day I managed to ski all day long with little to no discomfort. I didn't know that could be possible and I had an amazing first day out the gates thanks to Remy and his patient knowledge and focus on getting my setup just right. I have a new hope that I'll be able to continue getting out there despite my handicap! Thanks a TON, Remy.

Christain and his team are fantastic! Took my son who has moderately severe autism and the folks at Elite feet couldn't be more accommodating! Really spent the time to ensure a great fit and paid off big time skiing Nstar today. Thanks Again Christain and Team!!!

My family has purchased 4 pairs of ski boats from Christian over the last few years at both NorthStar & Squaw. My son is 12 and growing like a weed & each season I've gone back to Elite Feet fully prepared to buy him new boots. At each Elite Feet location the guys have told be that he didn't need new boots (they easily could have sold me new ones) and they have made some free adjustments to the fit & we were on our way. I've had custom fir boots from SureFoot and the boots Elite Feet fit me with are are just as good, if not - better. As long as Christian keeps taking care of me, I'll continue to be a loyal customer and send friends his way!

Christian fitted my ski buddy and did a terrific job. He's got weird and scary feet so needed multiple punches to liners and shells. The ability to ski in for final tweaks is great. He and Jeremy also molded some custom liners for me and did super job. Spend the money and get new boots from these guys, top recommendation.

We spend the majority of our waking hours in life on our feet. So why would we not seek the best footwear and fit for these critical body parts; especially while skiing?! These folks do just that - offer expert gear and fit - period. And they guarantee their work and stand behind their products. No comparison at Northstar and for that matter anywhere else in the greater North Lake/Truckee area. Do yourself - and your feet a favor.

Wow! these guys are good and care about the boot fitting your feet well. When it comes to skiing, this is HUGE! I got a new pair of Salomon boots during a blow out sale this past year and we first did the inner boot working through some pressure spots and this made such a difference compared with my old Lange boots. I immediately skied in way more comfort. The location at Squaw is quite convenient to the slopes plus the after ski lounge with live music and cocktail bar for an Irish coffee or hot toddy.

The best boot fit in all the years I have been skiing. Christian and the rest of the crew are awesome. I have worked with other boot fitters before but Christian crushed this pair for me. My advice is go in, sit down and let them do the rest. You will be glad you did. Update - still awesome!
