kihei228 Posted September 15, 2012 #1 Β Share Posted September 15, 2012 I am trying to find information on the rental boots that are available to us. We are traveling on L'Boreal on an A&K tour and we can pre order rental boots that will be delivered to our ship. Does anyone know the make and/ or sizing of these boots? They say to order 2 sizes larger than normal shoe size, but after trying on some Muck Boots brand today, they would be way to big. The rental site is shiptoshore traveler and they don't mention the brand. Can anyone offer any insight? Thanks, Laurie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've been shipped home (courier, parcel post etc) from various countries when I've moved on from colder climates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJBelle Posted September 16, 2012 #3 Β Share Posted September 16, 2012 I followed whatever directions they gave about how to determine size and mine fit perfectly. I think they had a time period (right after boarding) where if your boots didn't fit, they would exchange them. But their directions were fine.

We are on the Jan. 2nd to the Falklands, South Georgia,etc. As for the boots - the size chart was helpful and the ShiptoShore people are available by phone 24/7. They were a big help with jacket sizing for me too. Our friends who were on the same ship in January told us to go straight to our cabin, try on the boots, and they CAN be exchanged ... if you do it quickly!

Mike2131 Posted September 20, 2012 #8 Β Share Posted September 20, 2012 Go to the Tractor Store (or a similar store) and you will find great inexpensive boots ($20.00 unlined and $25.00 cloth lined - much better for on and off). When you are finished with the cruise donate them for crew use (the ship was glad to get them) so you don't have to lug them back home. Β We did this on the L'Austral in December and it was the perfect arrangement - cheaper and you get boots that are guaranteed to fit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
