I'm looking for a really good fitter in the area South of Chicago please. I know Rainbo are really good but it would be too much of a detour, and I have limited time.

How far south of Chicago!?!
Triple Toe Skatewear in Naperville is decent but they aren't that far south. https://tripletoeskatewear.com/contact-2/
Gepetto's in Downers Grove, IL https://geppettosskateshop.com/
South of I80 would be perfect, but unlikely.. Looking at the website and info for Triple Toe it looks like the store is closed but they offer eFitting? They do have Risport, which is great, but I definitely want an in-person fitting.
I've always heard really good things about Gepettos, but no Risport :cry:

If you want Risport then Illinois is not the state to be looking. Official N. America Dealers: MA, NY, FL and Ontario Canada (near Toronto).

There is Pete's Skate Shop (if it's still there) in Love's Park, IL (near Rockford which is above 80). They had Risport last I knew.

IF you got to Gepetto's, you can ask John H about Risports as he has knowledge of many things. He may be able to size you for them if they are the right boot and send you off to somebody to get them from. If you do go to Gepetto's, be prepared for a long time for fitting and for him to be behind schedule. ;)

Pete’s still exists, and he still has risport.

Sorry for hijacking this thread, but who is the one in Ontario? Thank you!
