I have some Burton Reactor boots. The shells are made to wrap around the shin and don't have a seperate tongue. I wanted to upgrade the liners. I have a set of Intuition liners that are the wrap around design and don't have a seperate tongue like the original Burton liner. My question is, can I use the Intuition liners with this shell? Another concern that I had is that the Burton liners seem to be a good bit thicker than the Intuition. I wondered if the Intuition would take up the extra space when I heat them up to be fitted? Should I just ride the the orginal liners until I can get some Deeluxe boots and then use the Intuition? Will be next season before I can get some new boots. Forgot to mention that I have a pretty narrow foot.

Thanks WB for the info. I have the original liners but thought the Intuition might give an even better fit and keep my feet warmer. The old liners fit pretty well but my toes get cold after riding a few hours if its cold. Always heard that the Intuition are warmer.

I put ZipFit liners in my Burton Wind boots. They are noticeably stiffer than the stock Burton liners, but comfy and warm. I removed the laces and power strap from the liners, which reduced the stiffness to where I like it.

Check them out at www.zipfit.com (http://www.zipfit.com)

They aren't cheap, but you can often find new ones on ebay at a decent price.
