What are the pros/cons of having traditional liners where they have their own tongues where as Intuition liners have a wrap-around design. Is there any difference in performance or just preference? I found when trying on various liners I didn't like the wrap around feel pressing against the boot tongue. Do you just have to get used to it?

Which one do you guys prefer and for what reasons?
 
Personally I prefer traditional, even though I own a pair of wraparounds, I think it's just personal preference,
 
it is personal preference. Usually a wrap around liner will fill up more volume in a boot which is good for me and my skinny ass legs. Also I like the wraps in stiffer boots because they offer more cushioning usually.

also the one thing to consider is that intuitions have NO PLASTIC in them which with some boots can really prevent pinching and pressure points that can be caused by traditional liners.
 
Genrally its preference but certain liners will feel better in some boots. Tradional boots usally come with the liner with a plastic tounge. This plastic helps support the whole length of teh skin, and actually protects more thena wrap around liner.

Boots like FT can work well with wrap liners as the way you flex teh tounge is differnt.

Genrally the best liners will still be the foam injection liners, then come intution style and lastly the liners witch come with boots as standard.
 
for what its worth when i tried full tilts i hated how the intuition liner felt, everything else was great but they just caused a lot of pain on the outside of my shin. When I put some regular liners in that totally fixed the problem. When I replace my current boots, I think I will go for full tilts but with a regular liner (probably get hated on now).
