I got these to replace the stock liners in a pair La Sportiva Skorpius. They helped me nicely with taking up some space around my heel, ankle, and instep. I’ve got a 26 boot, and the 26 liner was a good fit. Home heat molding went well, I did 5 minutes at 230 degrees.
Things I really like:
The upper cuff is covered in fuzzy material that accepts Scarpa style velcro spoilers/spacers to tune the forward lean and cuff volume. Finally, I don’t have to glue stuff on there. This is especially nice for this boot, as the lean lock angle isn’t adjustable beyond the plastic spacer in the shell.
They are a nice compromise of higher density and volume without killing the ROM when walking. Definitely a bit stiffer, but not much.
One thing I’d change-
The interior of the liner is a very fine fleece, which is a nice feel- but for a touring liner that gets plenty of sweat, I’d prefer to see the very smooth thin fabric you find inside Intuition liners. This is the only reason for the 4 stars. Hopefully they don’t take a long time to dry. Time will tell!
Palau All Track Power MV Liners
Palau took their All Track collection to the next level by offering a new “power” liner in a slimmer package. Working off the mighty Powertrack 10, they shaved the liner down to 8mm to allow its use in tighter-fitting, more articulate boots. Using a medium-density heat-moldable EVA foam, Palau made the Power MV (formerly known as the Power LT) a precise fitting liner to boost the performance of modern touring boots. Compared to similar Intuitions, the Palau All Track Power MV is designed with a thinner upper cuff to fit more calf sizes and cuff shapes to keep your feet warm and comfortable while keeping performance high.
- 8mm custom 100% moldable mid-density foam.
- Tongue Liner with optional laces for easy entry and close fit.
- Performance upgrade for the Spitfire, TLT6, TLT7, F1, or similar.
- Relief zone in the spine for better range of motion.
- Overall medium volume but molds precisely.
- Formerly called the "Power LT."

Riff-I have used these liners for a couple of years now and I have not been soaked out by the liner. I pull them out of the shell and use an upright boot dryer to dry the liners and I have had no issues with drying them out. Even on hut trips they dry pretty well. I suppose there are those who sweat a bunch more than I do in their liners. Only lately they have started to get a bit of boot odor that is why I'm looking again to purchase these. These are very durable with only a couple markings from shell wear, but overall very good! They have to have well over 100 days on them. I modified the tongue and Cut out a couple Shin protectors out of a flexible cutting board and glued them on to protect my shins when I power them in my Hoji boots. The sides of the toe material is pretty thin and I suffer from cold toe syndromes now and again because of a tight boot fit, but I use boot gloves for that now.
3/27/2022
Excellent point- i was hoping the material around the toe referred to as “perf” by palau would be closed cell heat moldable foam. It’s a low density open cell, probably comfortable but not as warm. It’s occasionally tough to figure out what the manufacturer means with descriptions.
4/29/2022
Update: still pretty stoked on these, drying them out is no problem. They were plenty warm on an extended trip with temps in the single digits. There’s some spots wearing through the exterior fabric, but nothing unusual.

I have TLT 8 (26.5) boots that I like, but looking to improve the downhill performance a bit and take up some more space in the boot around the ankle. Which liner would you recommend for this boot? Thanks.
3/18/2022
Hi Jason,
If you are looking to add some power to your TLT8 boots, while also taking up some additional volume on the stock liner, the Palau Power LT is a great place to start. Just a heads up, this liner will add friction to the walk mode, and will take up some additional volume in the cuff area as well. If the cuff is already snug in your boots, a beefier liner will make it pretty hard to close! If you have further questions, feel free to reach out to help@skimo.co!

Is there a significant difference in the amount of material in the forefoot/toe box area between the Power LT, Tour Lite Pro Evo, and Tour Lite Pro?
Looking at both of these as replacements liners for my old green TLT6s. Recently I've been using a old pair of extremely well-worn intuition power wraps plugs, which don't walk well but substantially improved skiing performance over the Palau Tour Lite Pro liners I was using previously. I'm interested in getting something that walks better with some improved skiing performance, but I'm concerned about adding too much liner material in the forefoot as my toes are happiest in with the mesh/foam toe box of the tour lite pro's.

Thanks for reaching out, Andrew. The Power LT and Tour Lite Pro Evo will be 8mm thick all around whereas the Tour Lite Pro is 7mm. They all use a perforated material around the toes, with the Tour Lite Pro Evo and Power LT feeling more substantial around the toes/toebox. The Power LT will use a stiffer foam, and feels the most substantial of the three, with the Tour Lite Pro Evo coming in second. If you are willing to thermomold, the Power LT would ski the best whilst preserving "walkability." If you can't thermomold or break the liner in, then the Tour Lite Pro Evo would be a good option.

Hi Larson,
The Palau Power LT is a pretty good spot to start for a close replacement to the stock liner. For a higher volume liner than comes stock, check out the Intuition Pro Tour in the MV. If you have further questions, feel free to reach out to help@skimo.co!

Hi - I'm in need of replacement liners for my Scarpa TX Pro boots (27.5 mondo). Primarily using for resort lift-served skiing in the East. Would you recommend these or the Intuition Pro Tours?

Hi NHTrip, the Intuition Pro Tour will be the closest to the stock liner for the TX Pro. You can choose between the Medium and High volume depending on how much volume in the boot you need to take up.

I have a '20-21 Scarpa F1 in size 28.0 that packed out quite a bit after a year of heavy touring. Now I'm kinda swimming around in that boot and have lost a significant amount of control on the downhill, especially in heavy or variable snow. I ski a 27/27.5 inbounds boot (Atomic Hawx Ultra 130s - I have the 27.5 liner) and feel I may have also bought a touring boot that was too large. Will the Power LT liner give me more of a performance fit in my 28.0 F1s and take up some of that extra swim room? Should I go with the 27.5 liner instead of the 28? Thank you!
1/29/2022
Thanks for reaching out, Will. The Power LT will feel a bit more substantial than the stock liner. If you go this route, I'd go with a size 28.0. If you have quite a bit of volume, you could also consider putting an Intuition Pro Tour in a 27 MV.

how do these compare to pro tour MV throughout the clog/cuff, particularly in the ankle area? higher or lower volume?
trying to take up ankle space in ZGTP, but not squeeze my wide forefoot.
MVs were not enough and afraid HV will be too much

Hey Erik, the Intuition Pro Tour MV is likely a bit thicker than the Power LT throughout the majority of the liner. One option to consider would be adding some strategically placed boot foam around the ankle area, and possibly an aftermarket footbed depending on where your ankles are relative to the boot's ankle pocket shaping.

Looking for a liner upgrade for my Hoji Pro Tour 27.0 … something just a bit more padded and stiffer then the stock liner …. Thoughts on the best one ??
1/21/2022
Thanks for your question, Jayson! If you're looking for a stiffer liner, the Intuition Pro Tour liner would serve you the best. If you have a shellfit of a "finger and half," go with a medium volume. If you have a "finger" fit (e.g., real tight) go with the low volume. Please let us know if you have any other questions!

Thanks for the question, Gerhardt. This liner would be an upgrade from what comes stock with the Zero G, especially if you wanted to emphasize the range of motion. If you want an even more snug fit, go for a Intuition Pro Tour in a medium volume (MV). For most folks with this boot (myself included), the Intuition makes a big difference over the stock liner. Please let us know if you have any other questions!

Put these into my TLT6s (that I got used) to replace the Pro Tour liners that came with them and were hitting my ankle bone in the wrong place. Molded myself with the boiling water in plastic bag method and have had zero blisters or hot spots. Good stiffness and rearward flex, perfect replacement liner or performance upgrade!

Hi Brandon, you can thermo-mold these to get a great fit out of the gate, but it's not strictly necessary. You could also ski them in.

I have a pair of size 19/20 Hawx Ultra XTD's in a 27.5 and am thinking about replacing the liner. I have about a 10mm shell fit for length and pretty much fill this boot in all the other dimensions. A higher volume liner than stock is not really an option. I would also like a liner that has a little more room in the toebox. The toebox in the the stock liner is freakishly short and tight. Is a size 27.5 or 28 Power LT the right call, or a size 28 Pro Tour LV? Also, are both of those liners lighter than the stock liner at 318 grams?
12/6/2021
Thanks for your question, Tom. The 27.5 should do the trick. In terms of weight, the Power LT liners weigh in at 398.2 grams for the pair in a size 27.5. We don't have a 28.0 LV intuition pro tour in stock, so I can't give you an exact weight. My speculation is that they (intuition) would be in the same ballpark as the Power LT's, though. The Power LT is quite thermoformable and you should be able to get the toebox to have enough room. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

I go through a pair of new liners about every year or so. I currently use the Intuition Pro Tour Liners (25.0) in my Scott Cosmos II boots. Would these be a good option ?
11/22/2021
Thanks for reaching out, Sean! For your boot, I would recommend sticking with the Intuition liners. These are great liners, however, for the big volume of the Cosmos, an Intuition would be the best option. Additionally, the Intuition foam is a bit denser, which helps resist packing out (the Paulau foam is less dense, which is better for range of motion). Please let us know if you have any other questions!

Hi, I have a pair of Dynafit TLT 6 boots with CL liners. I bought them online from Europe as only CR liners were available in North America. After 6 seasons, they have developed a couple of small holes and I need to replace them. I wonder if this liner would be a good replacement for my TLT 6 CL. I love my old ones. It's a spring/summer setup for climbing volcanoes. So I don't need them to be super warm. But I'd like them to be flexible and nimble. Thanks.
5/4/2021
Hey Deling, the Palau Power LT liner might be a touch on the beefy side for the TLT 6. I would steer you a bit more towards Palau Tour Lite Pro which would be a good comparison to that CL liner. You could also take a look at the Palau Tour Lite Pro Evo which would give you just a bit more stiffness out of the upper cuff. Let us know if you have any more questions!

Hey Tony, if you want to go into more details about our liners feel free to email us at help@skimo.co. This liner will have much more volume than the stock liner of the F1 LT, and therefore will have a significantly snugger fit throughout the boot.

Hey Tony,
We actually suggest you go with the Palau Tour Lite Pro as it'll offer similar uphill performance as well as downhill. The Power LT will limit the ROM quite a bit and have a bit too much volume.

Hey Peter, yes you could end up putting in a smaller liner to take up some room initially but you might want to check out some boot shims in order to get a more permanent solution for your volume problem. Once the liner packs out you would be in the same boat most likely.

Hi Russell,
I think you'll probably be looking for a thicker liner for that boot, in which case the Palau Power LT liner will be the way to go! If you're wanting something a little lighter, the Tour Lite Pro Evo Liners might also be a good option for you.
