Meet The Boot Lab's team of specialist boot fitters in Meribel
The Boot Lab first opened its doors in 2011, and since then has grown into the leading ski boot fitting and ski testing centre in Méribel. Our small but mighty team combines years of ski experience, expert knowledge, and great customer service. We look forward to welcoming you and helping you begin skiing in comfort.
We understand how painful and cold feet can spoil your holiday. And we also know that well-fitted boots can help you shine on the slopes!
Believe us when we say we have seen all shapes and sizes of feet: pay us a visit and we will help you find the right fit, improve your technique and ski in comfort.
The mountains are our home, our playground, and the reason we do what we do. We have a role to play in protecting this landscape for the future.
We are committed to reducing our environmental impact and making responsible choices: repairing, recycling, and reducing waste.
Tips, local knowledge and geeky ski gear chat
Head over to our blog pages for useful advice on how to get the best out of your new boots, technical information and interesting stuff about skiing and ski gear.
We will also throw in some local knowledge about skiing in the Three Valleys, Meribel, Courchevel, Val Thorens and the Belleville Valley.
Meet Tom
As founder of The Boot Lab and having spent over 20 winters of his life either wearing or fitting ski boots, (or occasionally both at the same time!), Tom has accumulated such an in-depth knowledge that manufacturers have started asking for his input for future designs, several years in advance!
On his lunchbreaks, if it isn't a powder day, Tom can usually be found with his skis dangling below a paraglider.
In the summer months he swaps ski boots for mountain bike shoes and explores a side to the mountain that the ski lifts don't cover.
Meet Joss
Joss joined The Boot Lab in 2018 after arriving in Méribel in a battered old van, not knowing he was signing up for a long-term commitment to mountain life. Several seasons, a few broken bones, and one global pandemic later, he is a core part of the team.
When he is not customising footbeds or discussing gear in the shop, Joss can usually be found chasing fresh tracks, launching himself off peaks with a paraglider, or hiking with his four-legged sidekick, Bhodi, who occasionally makes guest appearances in the shop.
Why choose Meribel?
