I'm looking for a shop that has a Wintersteiger or something similar. Any advice is appreciated.

I've been to both and I prefer REI. S & S lost a piece to my boot then tried to charge me $25 + shipping for the replacement.
I had gone there a couple of times before that episode and was never impressed. Driving an extra 5 minutes to REI is worth the piece of mind. Just plan ahead.

Thanks everyone. That REI is right around the corner from my work so I'll probably go there. Thanks for the advice.
