Who am I?

The Boot Lab is brought to you by expert boot fitter Andy Filer.

“Skiing 40 years this year!”

After a career as a ski instructor on the main Island of Honshu and North Island of Hokkaido in Japan and Australia at Mt Buller of 12 years, I became a boot fitter in Melbourne. During that time I took on the role as head guide for Japan Powder Tours based out of Moiwa Lodge in Niseko, Hokkaido. worked as powder tours guide for 6 seasons.

It gives me great pleasure to help people find the right boots to enjoy in the mountains! understanding how each persons flexibilities work is the key to skiing in comfort!

Happy Feet Happy Days!

Andy
