Ski boot liners

[crustyboot.420]

My full tilts are getting too small for me and I'm considering of just buying bigger liners. BUT intuition liners are pretty damn expensive. Would buying some same widht Dynafit touring liners work?

There is no difference between whole and half sizes (26.0 and 26.5), so buying just a liner will be pointless.

If you are in the right size shell, but need some more room consider the following:

1. Use a custom footbed - this will shorten the length of your foot by at least half a size by holding your arches up and locking your foot in the back of the boot

2. If you already have a custom footbed, get the shell stretched for length and the liner pushed forward. This only works if you already have a custom footbed.

3. If you've already done those options, then it's time get the next shell size up.

I have the old booters. The liner size goes from 27 to 28. I have 27s and there's alot of room between the liner's front part and the shell's front part.

Ah yes, that was one of the few ski boots to lump 3 sizes into one shell.

Just do a shell fit:

1. Remove the liner from the shell

2. Step into empty shell and slide your foot to the front so your toes just barely touch.

3. Examine the space behind your heel. 1cm = super tight performance fit, 2cm = normal, 3cm = too big

How much space is there?

There's like 1cm of space. You can see trough the shell.
