racing.

Most stores have some, not sure about the likes of hein gericke though, they're select about who they stock. I tried on some in a local independant little shop, gave me an idea of what size I needed, unfortunately they couldn't get the boots I wanted so ordered off the net.

But I'm thinking locally - all I know are
Farnborough - HG & Infinity checked online & they don't have TCX
The Harley Dealer between Guildford & Godalming doesn't
Where else is there?

Hmm dunno I just went to an unlikely little bike shop that had a back room full of clothing, he had some old tcx racing boots which I tried to get my size. Don't know anywhere down souf I'm afraid!
If you're having real difficulty then I'd say tcx's sizes are pretty accurate I found them similar sizing to trainers, you could ring up an online store and ask what size you should have for whatever size trainer you are. They'll always swap if wrong but just a bit of an árse and expense.
Think I bought mine from offshorevisors.co.uk or something.

Edit: ridersoffshore.co.uk
The woman I spoke to was very helpful, although they ****ed me off as they accidentally sent me a tinted visor and because she was nice (and so am I) I let them know their mistake and arranged to send it back. However she never refunded the cost of me posting it back and didn't respond to me. nobbers.

Haslemere Motorcycles has a link to TCX on its home page. Maybe they stock them

This place is also based fairly close. Although it's an online retailer, it does say you can visit them but just call first to check what you want is in stock

Cool thanks I'd seen them before but didn't notice te address or just ignored it because they were so expensive
But they do a price match so that's good but tey need to order in the boots but at least I can go there & try them on & if not ok then there's no postage there & back
Cheers
