After exhausing the cross country ski specialists in the UK

traditional leather touring boots ....

I have rung and spoken to the owners of each of the shops in the UK
which stock cross-country gear. Most of those shops do not have
websites.

Have you spoken to the Glenmore Shop & Cafe? They had some leather
boots in last season.


Success !

Thanks Chris. They have Alico Blaize boots, and a pair are "in the post" on
approval.

No idea if they will be the correct shape for my feet, find out when they
arrive and get tested on the living room carpet. From the makers website
photos, they look "about right" in terms of design and position in the
maker's range.
