 Poster: A snowHead
|
Wifey's Atomic M9 boot liners have cracked on the "tongue" area around where the bottom of the shin joins the top of the foot. I think it's a result of using the strap at the top of the tongue for pulling the tight fitting boots on.
Fear is, that eventually the whole tongue is gong to come off rendering the boot useless and causing frustration as we are all ready to head up the hill and she has boot failure!
Is it possible to buy just the liners as the shells are in good order and haven't done a deal of work despite being a few years old?
If someone can explain how to upload a photo I will post one to better explain the predicament.
Thanks in anticipation...

@Ski Tyke, overall recommendation from myself self would be a trip to a boot fitter for the most suitable liner and they will fit it too. Many snow heads use zip fit liners

@Kamikaze Pete, thanks for that. Could anyone suggest the best place to head for, bearing in mind we are based on S Lincs? Don't mind travelling to get sorted but it is going to have to be this Sat afternoon if it's going to happen.
Boots were originally from Lockwoods in Leamington. Anywhere closer to home than that, or do we head back there...?

Look at Intuition liners - https://intuitionliners.com/.
Can be custom fitted at home with a sock full of rice and some home-made pads. Did mine to replace original Lange liners.

@Ski Tyke, message me with the boot size, i don't have a specific liner for the M tech as it is old now, but we have some atomic hawx liners and salomon X pro liners both of which might fit cost £50 for the beer kitty

My M10s of '08 vintage went the same way after about four years, just on the inside side of the tongue. I think they catch on the shell when one is putting them on and taking them off.
Being a cheapskate I've carried on using them and they have not got any worse....

Give Lockwoods a call they sorted replacement liners for my Atomic Hawx and they were remarkably cheap
