Boots, where to try on?

Hi,

I need some new hiking boots but not a lot of choice available in Bathurst NSW. What would be the closest place with a good range of brands to try on. I got a bit interested in Inov8 waterproof boots for the light weight so would like to check them out. They may be OK for the walking I go these days. Not sold on them or anything else, I just want to try as many as I can before deciding. It's a long way from here to that area around Sydney Town Hall, anything closer?

Regards,
Ken

There is a Paddy Pallin shop in Katoomba. I think that may be the closest oudtoor specialist place to Bathurst, some of the other foot wear shops there may also have boots as well.

cheers

Aw, shucks, I read the title and was going to suggest "feet". Not to worry, sorry I can't offer any real help.

Yep Paddy's, MDs and also Summit Gear all in Katoomba. Not sure if any stock Inov8 though.
Nothing in Orange or Lithgow?
