Racing and touring is hard on liners. Sweat builds up; articulation causes chafing. Replace your SCARPA boot liners with a fresh pair, listed below by model.
4-Pro Flex XT - The Intuition liner for the 4 Quattro XT and 4 Quattro XT Women's boots.
Alien - Updated Intuition liner that comes with the newer Alien boots (since 2019/20). Also known as the Cross Fit Tour Lite liner.
Alien 1.1 - Intuition Crossfit BT Liner for the 2nd version of the Alien 1.0 that we all refer to as the "1.1" edition here at Skimo Co. Big tongue but nothing in the back.
Pro Flex Evo - Replacement liner for your F1 boots. Also a great liner for other boots if you want a thinner Intuition liner (as compared to the Pro Tour). Women's version also available for your F1 women's boot!
Pro Flex TK - Replacement liners for TX Pro boots. Allows for the articulation needed in telemark boots.
Race 4.0 SL - Replacement liners for Alien 4.0 and related boots.
Tour LT - And also Tour LT Women. These are the liners found in the SCARPA F1 LT and F1 LT Women's boots. Typical Intuition foam that also works great in other boots.
Tour LT2 - Replacement liner for the F1 XT, but also very compatible with F1 LT and F1 GT boots.

Questions & Reviews
I have a pair of F1s with pretty packed out liners. I wonder if you could recommend a replacement that perhaps is a little lower volume than the original.
Then, do you expect to have either the low volume liner or the original in size 28 back in stock this season?
As the only telemark-specific liner we carry, it would be the logical choice! It is a moderate thickness - not likely any thicker than the stock liner was when it was new, but if you don't need to add more foam to the boot, it would be a good choice! The main tele-specific feature it offers is a flex zone around the bellows.
I recently got the alien 1.0. However the reduced volume/protection of the existing liner tends to be not fully steady (the tongue move a bit on the side) and moreover some hard points in the boot hurt after a few hours of ascent, especially in traverses.
I was wondering whether another lightweight but with more volume and cushion scarpa liner that would fit, could do the job better before I start to try custom add on patches or cushioning materials.
What is your suggestion ?
Thank you very much for your consideration !
Best,
Vassilis
We have seen some people swapping the standard full-height Alien liner into their 1.0's in order to gain some additional support and warmth! It may require you to remove some padding from the back of the cuff depending on how large your calves are. It isn't much thicker than the 1.0 liner overall, but it does come up higher and protect more of the leg inside the boot. The Alien liners are on the thicker side for race boot liners. We would not recommend trying to put any of their normal touring liners into the Alien 1.0 - they're most likely going to be too thick.
I want my Alien 1.1 fell better skinning.
I am thinking that maybe, with the 4.0 liner, and protection the shin, the experience will be better...
What do you think? Have you done this before?
Thank you
I'm looking for replacement liner for my Scarpa Maestrale RS 24/25 size 265(BSL 308). After two seasons of heavy touring (and huts without boots dryers) the original ones packed out. Any recommendations?
We do not have the stock liner, but an Intuition Tour Tongue liner would work well! The 12mm will be a bit thicker than the stock liner, appropriate if you would like to fill up a little space in the boot. The 9mm is closer to the stock thickness but is a little thinner.
If your old liners are worn out, I would recommend replacing them with an Intuition Tour Tongue! You would want either the 9mm or 12mm thickness. If you have a tight fit in the shell and are worried about adding too much foam, go with the 9mm - and conversely, if you have a looser fit in the shell, and feel like you need to take up volume, the 12mm will be thicker and will fill more space.
It is worth noting that a new liner will not necessarily give you more room in the toe box, and will need to be heat molded with a toe cap to open up that area and give you maximum breathing room there.
We don't have the same Scarpa liner in stock, but an Intuition Tour Tongue liner would work well! The 12mm will be a bit thicker than the stock liner, appropriate if you would like to fill up a little space in the boot. The 9mm is closer to the stock thickness but is slightly thinner.
Thanks
Yes, that would be the closest thing you can find!
Thank you!
The 9mm or 12mm Intuition Tour Tongue would be good options - 9 if you want to take up less space, 12 if you want to take up more space.
Thank you
After checking in with our in-house Tele expert, I would recommend an Intuition Tour Tongue in either the 9mm or 12mm thickness, depending on your fit in the shell. If you need to take up more room in the shell to prevent slop, and have more of a comfort fit, go with the 12mm. If you have a tight fit in the shell and don't want to add too much material, go 9mm.
For long tours, I could benefit from a liner with flex zones in the tongue for better uphill performance.
Q: how does the Intuition Pro Flex Performance compare to the Tour Tongue? Thickness, tongue flex zones?
Thx
I would say the Pro Flex Performance won't necessarily walk much better than the 12mm Tour Tongue. Similar thickness as well. If you're looking to improve range of motion, you'd need either a thinner liner or a lighter, better walking boot.
We do! I would recommend an Intuition Tour Tongue liner, most likely the 12mm thickness if you would like the liner to take up some space in the shell. If you have a very tight fit in the shell, then go with the 9mm. I would recommend verifying your boot size before you order - you should be able to find the boot sole length stamped one one side of the heel of the shell. With this number and some internet sleuthing, you can determine the size of the boot!
I found the F1, or Pro Flex Evo 24.5 liner, works the best. The 24.5 and 25 shell and liners are the same.
Since you are trying to change just the heel pocket, I would suggest trying this instead - liner sleeve
We have been working on it. Hopefully this Fall we will have.
