have posted in 'wanted' but not got any replies so thought I'd try here!

off skiing at half term and need to sort boots for dd who is just finding her feet.

don't mind about colour as her snowsuit is fairly unisex. really need ones that open out to put on and then lace/zip up otherwise we'll never get them on her!!

Have you tried Asda ? I got dd some for £6 - they open out and have velcro on them.

TK maxx might be worth a look too. We found when dd was tiny the snow boots had to fit properly or she'd be deeply unhappy and not want to walk in snow - tried Aigle snow wellies to no avail and got double strap velcro ones or lace ups instead. Unfortunately they'd be too small for your lo.

Tried TK Maxx but they're pretty much out of their skigear now.
What size boots do you have? dd2 is actually in size 19 (is that size 3/3.5?) but I was thinking of going up a size to allow for extra socks

I got DD some of the Muddy Puddles ones - they open fully at the front so that you can get the foot right in and are fur-lined. She is also a 3.5 in shoes but I went for 20 in the boots because of extra socks though to be honest, I think she may have been better in a 19 as they had plenty of room left in them even with thick tights and socks. I originally got size 21 but they were huge so had to exchange them. They are now reduced in the sale. I saw the Asda ones but think the smallest size is 4.
