Verified reviewThe service was mediocre and the employees appeared arrogant and inattentive. They sent us out of the shop without adjusting the size of the bindings to the boots and without adjusting to the correct weight. There were only one other couple in the store than us -so it shouldn’t be hard to deliver a more appealing service.

Verified reviewWe found your store and the staff to be quite excellent. Everyone was cheerful, helpful made us feel so very welcome. The quality of the equipment was the best we have had and the overnight locker facility a real bonus. Well done and many thanks to all concerned..

Verified reviewI have used Skimium for a number of years now and I don't think I have ever been disappointed We were particularly pleased this year the shop was near our apartment, the equipment was perfect and the gentleman in the store could not do enough to help us, he went above and beyond and so friendly.

Verified reviewI rented the top level equipment. The boots were mid level at best and smelled sweaty. The service was good. I wanted a stiff boot and all mountain ski to go off piste. The equipment was not quite right

Hello and thank you for your feedback. We always prepare the shoes during the morning of the day before the first day of booking. Customers can collect their equipment from 3pm onwards, so the shoes are dry in plenty of time. We also disinfect all shoes as soon as they are returned, to avoid odor problems, among other things. Don't hesitate to let us know what you think once you're in the store, and we'll make any necessary adjustments. In your case, you wanted to change skis, which we did, but you didn't tell us about the boots. We hope to see you again soon in Chamonix!
