A good outdoor shop in Delhi?

matster · Oct 1st, 2009, 12:17

Dear all, first of all, I would like to thank all of you for the information I've been getting off of this site for over a year now! Up until now I never felt It made much sense for me to post as I didn't need, nor could provide relevant information.
But here it comes: Over the last 2 months me and my girlfriend have been traveling trough Indonesia, where we had a great time except that the inlays(or inner soles, I'm not sure what you call them) of the hiking boots of my girlfriend have been stolen (weird, eh?). In Indonesia is had proven impossible to replace them, and since we are planning to do some trekking in India and/or Nepal we really need some.
In one week will be flying to New Delhi, so I would really appreciate it if you guys could help me out!
We will be staying in Pahar Ganj area, but I don't mind traveling around a bit for them.

Thanks!

Martin

Hi Martin
Welcome to IM, glad you signed up, its a fun place to be!
There is a sticky thread in the trekking and mountaineering forum you should check . . . otherwise insoles (that's what we call them) should not be a problem, the brand of the shoe might be an issue, but you're bound to find something that fits in there, a mochi (cobbler will do the trick otherwise. There are a bunch of good shoe shops and one outdoor shop (trekker's point) above plaza in Cannaught place right next to Pahar Ganj where you should be able to find them.

Wow, that's a fast reply!
The brand is Lowa, so that's pretty common I think, but they are extra slim, so that might be a slight problem. However, I'll check out the store, thanks!

India mike . . . fastest gun in the east

Well I never hear of LOWA to be honest, but insoles are insoles, worst comes to worst get a scissors and cut them into shape!
