Larry’s Boot Fitting

If you need boots to fit, go here. People buy boots that feel good in the store, and a boot that feels good when you first put it on is likely too big to give you proper control. Larry is great at fitting boots. Let’s put it this way. When we’re skiing all day and we stop for lunch, everyone opens their boots up except me. These boots are more comfortable than slippers. Larry never upsells, never treats me in any way other than a good old friend, even new people get treated like old friends. Seriously, I can’t say enough nice things about this place. Where to start. When I needed ski boots, I went to Larrys, knowing his reputation from friends. Heather measured my feet and told me I had a narrow, low volume foot, and recommended 3 boots, none of which they had in stock, but said if I could find them someplace they’d fit them for me. The no-​pressure on buying there is a great thing. I’m not rich, I can’t afford top of the line new boots, but I did find 2 year old new Seth Morrisons and had them fitted and they’re wonderful. Same story with my wife, they told her what would fit and we found a pair of worn-​once boots over at BSD and bought them and brought them back to Larrys to be fitted. No pressure, no recrimination because we didn’t buy the boots there, just the best, continuously the best, service. And my wife, who typically has cold feet and problems has not complained about these boots at all, loves them. My best advice, if you need boots, is to go in with an open mind and DO WHAT THEY TELL YOU. Get the boots they recommend, get them fitted, and enjoy skiing.

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.

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!

Cameron & Larry helped me pick out boots for over 2 hours. This is why I go to Larry. Personal touch and boots well done. Stop complaining about your feet and let Larry and crew work their magic.

Went to Larry’s for the first time recently, and could not be more pleased. Ken was the guy helping me and was great! Treated me like I knew the scoop and accommodated me in every way. Though my boots were new, wasn’t sure if they could be tweaked enough to want to keep them. After multiple heating and fittings, they are a world of difference better. I have full confidence once using them, that even if they need a bit more adjusting, they can do it. I was expecting a higher cost due to the time Ken spent, and was pleasantly surprised with the total. They do get busy (for a good reason), so plan on some time, or make an appointment. Two thumbs up here!

Long time snowboarder here. Came in to see what all the fuss was about as my friends just would not shut up about how much they loved him. So I went in and now I’m that insufferable friend telling you about how amazing Larry is.
Came out with a pair of boots, skis and had a fantastic few days on the sticks.
Larry is so good he almost made me like skiing.

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

I spent $ 600 on my boots at CO Ski and Golf, and they hurt the first 10 days I used them on the mountain. Some days, three runs was a stretch. Plus I was afraid to dump even more money into them.
Eventually I heard of Larry’s, and noticed that he does the boot care videos online. And the Unilocal posting gave me confidence I wasn’t going to have to shove more money in.
I went to visit on a Sunday afternoon, and the tech took my boots in the back, adjusted the footbeds and heated the liners for me to walk around in and only charged a few dollars for the work.
I went up last week — and I can ski longer and more comfortably than I ever have, and had more fun too. I won’t take my boots anywhere else.

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.

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!

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.

They are miracle workers at work here at Larry’s Boot Fitting. I made an appointment based upon the recommendation of others here on Unilocal and was glad I did so even though I had to wait a week or so to get in. I had bought a new pair of boots last season and only skied them 3 days before finding that they caused an immense amount of pain in the top of my foot on both feet. After a couple of simple measurements and looking over the boots Nolan took them in back for about 10minutes. He came back, I tried them on and the pain was gone, he gave me a few tips for putting the boots on and buckling them so as to put my foot in the optimal position. He made another adjustment based on how my feet felt and then we discussed custom insoles, I decided to hold off and ski them a few more days before purchasing the insoles and see if the tweaks he made alleviated my issues.
The best part of the 35 – 40 minutes I spent there getting comfier, the cost. A mere $ 25!!! I cannot recommend this place highly enough, they’ll treat you right, fix the issues, and stand behind their work.

I wish every business interaction gave me as much pleasure as going to Larry’s Boots. Larry’s been fixing my same pair of boots going on five years now and kept me and my feet enormously happy.

I am not someone who typically leaves Unilocal reviews, but Larry’s Boot Fitting is the kind of business that gives you such a good experience, you feel compelled to write a review.
I had a pair of barely-​used Lange boots fall into my lap for free a few days ago. They were marked my size, but after I left them on for a few minutes, my feet were screaming. I was going to just scrap them, but since they were such nice boots and I got them for free, I figured I would see if I could salvage them with a fitting. I found Larry’s online and, even though I live 45 mins south in Denver, it looked worth the drive to deal with some real pros. Boy, was I right.
These guys know boots. There were about 3 guys working the day I went in, including Larry, who is a trip. I have to say, I have only been skiing for a couple of years and have only ever rented equipment. I was a little nervous I would not be able to describe the issues with the boots, but it turns out it didn’t matter. These guys are so knowledgeable, you can just describe a really vague issue and they know exactly what to do.
They put some serious time into my boots – over two hours. It was near closing and they all stayed on a little after 6 to get them right. I felt bad about the hour (especially on a Friday when I’m sure they all had places they’d rather be), but they didn’t make me feel rushed at all.
I felt SO much better about the boots by the end. They no longer felt like the Chinese Torture Devices that they felt like when I brought them in and even felt pretty comfortable. Best part: it only cost me $ 25! I was blown away by that.
I asked them about custom foot beds and different amenities and they didn’t try to up-​sell me on anything. Larry basically just recommended I ski in them first and see if I felt like it was necessary. If not, I could save some money. Class act.
If you need new boots or boots fitted, go to Larry’s. You will know you’re dealing with knowledgeable guys who will shoot you straight.

Awesome place and a fun and educational experience. Get your boots fitted — it is so important.

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

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.

Very knowledgeable and attentive staff spends a great deal of time with each customer ensuring that your fit is perfect.

I’m new to Colorado, so this is my first full ski season. Because of its stellar reviews, I went to Larry’s with the intention of finding and fitting the perfect pair of boots that would allow me to reliably demo different skis throughout the season, even as a relative neophyte. The shop was pretty busy when I hesitantly stepped through the door around 2PM on a Saturday, but although the staff was working hard to fit boots for quite a few customers, they quickly noticed me and ushered me to a seat where a newer-​seeming employee named Andre was soon available to help me. We spent quite a while trying on different boots and liners, and the very friendly Andre did his best to explain some of the nuances of what I should be looking for in a ski boot.
I’m inclined to be pretty analytical, and I like to understand my equipment perfectly, even when I’m completely new to a sport. So take it with a grain of salt when I say that I didn’t feel completely satisfied with Andre’s ability to articulate what I ought to be seeking in my first pair of ski boots. Rather, I ended up trusting his judgment as to fit and function. It was reassuring that some of the more experienced staff, including Larry himself, appeared to keep a watchful eye on the entire proceeding, even though they largely kept their distance for Andre’s sake. They chimed in once or twice with suggestions to us, and after trying on three different boots, I arrived at one that was certainly a better fit than the previous two offerings.
From there, Larry took over, crafting custom insoles and heat molding some liners for me. He was attentive to the details of his work and molded the insoles with a deftness that could only have come from years of experience. The process took a while, but the casual and friendly atmosphere (Andre brought me a beer while I was waiting on the insoles) kept me from getting too tired out.
When we had finally finished molding the liners and insoles, I spent some time standing around in the boots to make sure they were going to work for me. It took about ten minutes, but my feet started to cramp up a bit. Andre promised me that this was normal and that there would be a breaking-​in period of about 7 full days of skiing. From what I knew of climbing shoes and hiking boots, that didn’t sound unreasonable for brand new footwear, so again I deferred to Andre’s judgment.
Reassuringly, and perhaps best of all, I can now go back to Larry at any time to get the boots tailored even further for no additional charge. And since he has helped so many people correct their poorly selected or badly fitted boots, I feel confident that he’ll be able to help me sort out any difficulties I might encounter with the presumably perfect boots he has helped me pick out and shape.
Despite my inexperience with ski boots, I can say three things with confidence: Larry and his staff are willing to spend lots of time on their customers, Larry is very experienced, and everyone on the staff seems friendly. I wish I could say as much for every small business I’ve encountered.

Larry is a miracle worker. I’ve had problems with my foot beds for a year now. I was only able to take a few runs before a burning shin pain settled in. But I spent a few hours with Larry and his super friendly/​knowledgeable staff and he worked miracles. Not only did he completely solve my foot bed problem. But he also realized my scoliosis was affecting my alignment, so he did a few adjustments and now everything is all lined up. Amazing. I had a great, long day on the mountain afterwards and am beyond happy.
Love these guys. So happy they could help me out, even though I didn’t buy my boots there. Next time, I will. :)
