CUSTOM SKI BOOT FITTING IN TRUCKEE

Our Northstar location is in the Northstar Village retail center at the base of the Village Express Gondola. Northstar is Tahoe's most refined resort — manicured runs, a walkable village, and guests who expect the best.

The same process that made Surefoot the largest-volume custom ski boot retailer in North America is available right here in Truckee: a 538-point foot scan, custom orthotic milled on-site, and a foam-injected liner molded to your exact foot shape. Most fittings take 45–60 minutes. You leave with boots you can ski the same day — no break-in period.

We've fit everyone from first-day beginners to FIS World Cup racers to guests who thought their skiing days were over until we got them into the right boot. Walk-in appointments are available when space permits, but we recommend booking ahead during peak season.

WHAT TO EXPECT

01
Orthotic Scan
A 3D imager maps your foot in 538 precise locations, building a detailed topographic model. Your data is sent directly to our on-site fabrication machine.
02
Assessment
Your fitter evaluates your skiing history, ability, build, and goals. Combined with your scan data, they select the optimal boot from over 100 models across every major brand.
03
Fabrication
A three-axis CAD/CAM mill shapes raw EVA blanks to your exact measurements. The orthotic is sealed and hand-trimmed for precise alignment inside your boot — while you wait.
04
Custom Liner
You step into the boots while a technician injects gel-like memory foam into the liner shell. Within minutes it solidifies — a liner molded to your foot and only your foot.
05
Hit the Mountain
Walk out and ski. No break-in period. Free follow-up adjustments for the life of the boot — we stand behind every fit.
