Default seeking large boots -- help

Hello all:

I'm looking to buy some alpine skiing boots and I have size 15 (euro
49/50), and very slightly narrow feet. I'm wondering if anyone can
point me to the brands and models that actually make boots in my size.
It took me a while to find nordic ski boots that fit, and I'm hoping
someone can help me start my downhill search.

Also, can anyone point me to shops in the Tahoe area (or N. Cal or Nv)
that actually have large size boots one can try on? (I don't want to
have to pay shipping on every special order that doesn't fit.)

Thank you! VB

Call Cosmo's bootwerks in Tahoe City - put the question to him.

Also Dalebout builds boots for difficult feet in Salt Lake City. Try

I have really big boots. And some xx large gloves too. I don't really
ski much anymore so you can have them if you want. I'm out partying
alot but if you call one of the girls that always hang out here can
get your address.
