Expert Walking Boot Fitting at Craigdon Mountain Sports Aberdeen

130 Years of Combined Experience. Thousands of Miles Covered.

Finding the perfect pair of walking boots isn’t just about your shoe size—it’s about the anatomy of your foot and the terrain you intend to conquer. At Craigdon Aberdeen, our team brings over 130 years of specialist experience to every boot fitting, ensuring you leave with footwear that performs as hard as you do.

Our Precision Fitting Process

When buying walking boots and shoes it’s important to get the right size, width and volume of footwear as well as appropriate footwear for the purpose intended. Our fitters follow a rigorous assessment to find your perfect match:

• Comprehensive Measurement: We assess the length, width, and volume of both feet.
• Footwear Range: We stock footwear in five distinct width fittings to accommodate everything from narrow heels to broad forefoots.
• Purpose-Driven Selection: Whether you are tackling a Munros circuit or a coastal path, we match the boot or shoe’s stiffness and grip to your specific goals.
• The Final Check: We perform a multi-point fit check to ensure zero heel lift and adequate toe room for those long descents.

The Foundation: Supportive Footbeds

Many of our customers benefit from supportive footbeds. In everyday shoes they can be very helpful but in hillwalking boots and shoes they often prove essential to help support the foot for long days on uneven ground.

• Stability & Structure: Footbeds provide comfort by maintaining the foots length, width and structure whilst it is under pressure.
• Premium Options: We stock an extensive range from industry leaders Superfeet and Sidas.
• Custom Solutions: We can also make custom footbeds if your feet are different to each other or uniquely problematic!

In-House Customisation & Stretching

Feet are very different and it is often necessary to customise footwear for your feet. If a boot is almost perfect but has a slight pressure point, our workshop can bridge the gap. Using specialist machinery, we offer:
