Ian M Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Hi all, These liners are a bit stiff for my tastes, so I'm going to pass them on. Molded once, ridden twice. Some of the stitching was pulled a bit when I put them in the shells hot, as shown in photo #2. How about $140 shipped in NA?

Hilux Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Hmmm, I wonder if these are stiffer than my old Raichle thermo's I'm using now...I'm thinking yes. How do you find them stiff? Just overall or any particular area? Thanks Ian! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian M Posted December 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 ^ Hilux, you're welcome to take a look at these this week and see for yourself! I like quite a bit of ankle flex, and they pivot less at the ankle than the (soft) ski boot liners I've been using. I would guess that these are at the stiffer end of most of the wrap liners, but if anyone else can compare them to other liners please speak up.

kieran Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 (edited) i have this years palau OVPH liners. similar to those pictured excepting it's all black. it's considerably stiffer than the standard deeluxe thermo liner, though with the BTS installed i have no problems pivoting the boots. took some getting used to, but now i like the feel. only criticism is the overlap area doesn't seem to puff out as much during heating, i ended up fitting them only with the toe and ankle clips, and leaving the cuff open.

maineboarder88 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Now $130 :) How's the length on these liners? Do you feel they fit like a true Size 10 shoe, or a bit bigger (10.5)? Thanks for the info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian M Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Hi maineboarder88, Tough question, as shoes sizes vary from brand to brand. Also, when I molded them I had an orthotic footbed inside, which took up all kinds of space. The most useful thing I think I can say to you is that the liner should fit a 28.0-28.5 foot well if using a thinner footbed. I'd call it a medium-volume liner, or just a bit thicker.
