“I am sure you would not remember me, but I purchased a custom-fit pair of Lange boots from you 20+ years ago during the winter that I took off from work and just skied in Utah. I skied in those boots probably 400 days or so, and only stopped using them because they were literally disintegrating. By far, you gave me the best boot fit I’ve ever had. I am glad to see that your business is going strong and that your family is thriving. You always impressed me as a true gentleman. I have not had such luck with a boot fit ever since you fit me into those Langes, and as I was talking to a boot technician yesterday trying to fix the problem with the current boots, the thought occurred to me, why not go back to Earl? So I tracked you down on the web, and here we are. I am likely going to be on a business trip to the west coast (I live in Boston) in December well before Christmas, and if this happens, I’m thinking of stopping in SLC on the way home to have you personally fit me for a new set of boots.” – Dave

“Hi, I am the female who has the ‘holstein ankles and feet.’ I have skied on my new custom fit boots with the great orthotics for two weeks now. You were right. I luv luv luv them. The insoles are perfect and it is so so cool to feel the arches and have support. I will be back. I skied double blacks all day and I feel stacked. Thanks for making my ski experience the most positive it’s ever been.” – Kim

“Thank you so much for finally getting me into a pair of boots that is comfortable to ski in! I haven’t felt like this in the 30 years I have been skiing. No toe bang, no numb feet, and the performance is better than I could have imagined! The Cochise 130s feel great. Derek did a great job with the initial fitting and after a few more trips, Earl and Jeremy were able to correct the numb tow issues. I did 18k vertical at Steamboat last weekend and had my boots on all day! I didn’t even really have to unbuckle them at lunch. -Thanks!” – Chad

“I am a 6′-6″ tall athletic mechanical engineer with a men’s size 16 narrow, an exceedingly difficult size to find in any footwear on Planet Earth. After years of suffering actual damage to my feet while skiing, I toured all the western US states and interviewed many of the most talented ski boot fitters of considerable reputation. None could compare with Earl Middlemiss. His consulting work with top tier companies on the design of ski equipment spoke volumes of his skill. Since his first fitting my boots fit like they are part of my body structure. His knowledge of human anatomy, boot design, and skiing dynamics qualifies him as the best ski boot fitter in the United States, bar none.” – Greg
