Palau Tour Lite Pro Liners
Palau liners are made with 100% highly rated EVA foam. The thermo-moldable foam is closed-cell which maximizes thermal retention. Palau make their liners with a dense cut of the foam that retains its shape after a heat mold or some skiing. That is why they were chosen as the liner supplier for Dynafit, La Sportiva, and other well-known boot brands. Now you can get replacement liners for lightweight backcountry boots with the aftermarket offering from Palau. The Tour Lite Pro liners are relatively thin, lightweight, and have an Achilles flex zone. Perfect replacements for TLT, Spitfire, and other high performance ski mountaineering boots.
- 100% closed-cell EVA foam is very receptive to molding.
- Tongue design doesn’t interfere with walking like an overlap.
- Lacing system give you additional ski-support if desired.
- Flex zone behind the ankle allows for unimpeded skinning.
- 7mm thickness is light, flexible, yet reasonably warm.
- Compatible with TLT5, 6, PDG, Spitfire, and other models.

This will be a bit thinner than both the stock Zero G Tour Pro Liner and the 9mm Intuition. For what you're describing, the 9 mm Intuition should be your best bet. It takes up roughly the same amount of space as the stock liner and is quite moldable.
For reference the K2 Mindbenders are the most comfortable bootie ever ski’d. just a bit clunky and heavier for actual tours. But they’re a solid 50/50 boot.
Ski boot liners do not come with meaningful footbeds/arch supports - it is assumed that you will add your own, as everyone has a unique arch shape. It's a great idea to see a boot fitter to size a drop-in insole, or to make a custom footbed!
If you do need to replace the liners (if they're worn out), we can help advise as to models that might work - but it sounds like you're after footbeds!
This liner would work well, but looks like the 28 is out of stock. The Palau Tour Lite Evo would be a good option as well, that's the newer version of this liner. I would think a 5mm liner would be pretty thin in the X-Alp Carbon, unless the boot's very tight on you.
This liner, as it mentions, is 7mm thick, more in the cuff. It is thicker then the Mezzalama liner. Those race liners are a close match, but use ultralight foam that gives very little support. Except for a Race Bikini liner, which also can feel weird, not much else.
I responded to your email! But in general, we find that the best liner for the Scarpa F1 is the stock Scarpa/Intuition Pro Flex Evo liner that comes with the boot. This one is a bit thinner!
I use them for about 10 000ft D+ a week .
Thank you

This would be a good liner for the Backland Carbon. Unfortunately, it's very hard to say whether it will fix your specific issue. In general, liners are not the way to fix a poorly fitting boot. If you are using the Hawx Ultra Mimic Platinum liner from Atomic, that is a much beefier liner, this one will be quite a bit thinner and softer. I would say they are a better match for the Backland Carbon boot, which is light and mobile.
The 12mm after a heat mold would be ideal. Thanks!
The BFC 100 is an alpine boot, not a touring boot, so the liners we sell are not going to be ideal for you. The first thing I would recommend for your boots is a heat mold at a good alpine shop, as they may be able to add some room to the toe box for you. Otherwise, I would look at Intuition liners! They have many alpine models that are well-regarded.
I just got the new Tecnica Zero G Peak Carbons in 28.5. Lengthwise the boot is great, but unfortunately I feel the liner is way too thin (especially around the midfoot area, half of my foot is moving around).
I tried stuffing the 28 Intuition Luxury MV liner but I couldn't get my foot in. I also tried a 29 Tour Wrap MV but wouldn't stuff my foot in either.
Would this liner (in size 28.5?) be thicker than the stock Peak Carbon liner?
Thanks,
The Light boots have thin liners. Lighter and less restrictive for cuff rotation.
This liner would not help.
Some people have used the Intuition Pro Tour MV and worked. But can't say for sure, but it is not as thick as the Luxury liner. The Palau Power LT is thicker and would be your other choice.
Palau offers fantastic liners and should last far longer than that! The Palau Tour Lite Pro Liners would fit, however, they would take up volume throughout and create a stiffer felt flex. The suggested liner for that boot is the Palau Ultralight Race Liners 7mm. For your boot, I'd recommend the 26.5 which unfortunately we are out of stock at the moment.

Also looking at the 7mm ultralight race liner. I read that the race liner is a bit less dense and therefore might heat mold out a little more, giving me even more space in this spot (and my bunions, which I didn't mention above. Also, it appears to have even less seams that could cause trouble...Thanks!
Quick answer, the 7mm race liner is very minimalist and would give you less of a good fit then the quite good CR stock liner.
the Tour Lite liners are going to be the right replacement. The Power LTs are slightly higher volume in the cuff and might make it difficult to buckle the boot.
Thanks!
These are probably the closest to the stock liner. The evo is slightly thicker but not a huge amount--they both take up similar space around the ankles and toes, the main difference is that the evo is slightly more robust around the calf and does have a velcro tongue wrap.
The Palau Tour Lite Pro will indeed be a great replacement option if you would like a liner that gets you close to the fit of the stock Spitfire 2.1 liner. As for sizing, I would go with the 25.5!
I'm wondering how much Palau Tour Lite Pro Evo would be beefier comparing to stock liners
