An oldtimer ski buddy was having trouble putting on his boots. Opening the boot shell flaps to allow the foot to enter can be tricky. Especially, when the shell is hidden by his beer belly. After reviewing the video, Shuvvie made the task easier and safer!
Game changer for helping your kids get their boots on, not to mention my own, which are all 130 flex…! Great product!
Had heel lock issues that my old bootfitter hadn't been able to solve for a while. Helped incredibly. I'm skiing a lot better now. Couldn't recommend them highly enough if you're looking for improved heel lock and can't easily see a bootfitter
Many of brand Z users state their liners have outlasted many boot shells.

This product seemed very insubstantial when I got it and I had a hard time believing it would make a difference. But I purchased this because I was at the tightest setting on my top two buckles , my heels could still lift when I skied hard and my inside ankles were painfully grinding into the boot when my heels lifted.
It took a while to install these correctly because I have little experience removing the liner and custom foot-bed from the boot and reinstalling it.
On my first attempt both boots felt much harder to slip into and one boot had incredible pressure on my toes and the other boot was pushing up uncomfortably into my arch. And this was at home before skiing. So I took them apart again and studied everything carefully. Turns out my Dalbello boots have a silicon/rubber gasket type thing where the boot splits open at the bottom of the tongue and it had somehow dislodged and bunched up when I put the liner back in. On the other boot the custom sole had shifted laterally so that the arch side was higher even though it seemed fully lodged in the liner. it didn't want be pushed into place so I had to remove it completely and put it back in carefully.
I was then able to revert back to my original thin socks to get into the boots and then adjust the top buckles to about 2 rungs back from where I was setting them at the tightest. Now the boots fit perfectly my heel is comfortably locked down, my ankles don't grind and the boots feel nice and tight yet very comfortable. Just like when they were new.
So... great product but takes a little effort and patience to use it right
We received the liner sleeves in the Netherlands. Shipping arrived quickly. immediately put on my son's Liners. Went skiing in Italy last week and he was super excited! Another tight fit from his ankle!
Excellent firm comfortable socks. Good length and don’t move or slip. Warm yet thin.
Last year I started to experience my heels lifting slightly in my ski boots and thought that I’d have to purchase a new pair. When I saw the Liner Sleeve advertised I thought I’d them a ago, having just returned from a weeks skiing in the Dolomites the liners worked perfectly and I no longer experienced any further problems with my heels lifting.
I spent my first day on my new Patriot footbeds and they were wonderful. I wear Atomic Hawx Magna 130 boots, ski Fischer Ranger 102 skis at 190cm, and am an big guy (6 foot, 295) pounds who skis hard and loves to rip steep groomers who has been skiing for 42 years. Today was one of my best days ever and it is only day one with the footbeds.
They added support in my arches and helped an already great setup work better than it had beforehand. The extra in-boot support made it seem like my skis were on auto-pilot today. My entire day was a joy and my feet and legs feel great after taking 21 runs in just over 2 and a half hours!
I was going to spend $275 to $300 for custom footbeds until I had a friend tell me to check out Patriot. I'm happy to say that everything that you say on your website is true and the footbeds work better than advertised!
Kudos on making a happy skier happier!
This has taken all the frustration away from putting on my ski boots, now there on in a few seconds and ready to go, so easy to use. Thank you Patriot form a very happy customer.
I’ve used the liner sleeve for the past two seasons. I’m a patroller and they rock. Just got another pair for my new boots and they help lock my heels down when side slipping through moguls with a patient in the toboggan. Will probably buy a third pair eventually!
Was consistently getting blisters while touring. These helped a lot, locking my heel and have been getting way less rubbing on the up. Appreciate the extra heel hold on the way down too!
Does exactly what it says. Sorted out the excess room around my heel and ankle in the boot. Very easy to insert and use
After skiing mushy Cabrio Full Tilts for a while I decided I had to return to a well fitting, responsive performance boot. I went with Mach1s and sprung for Zipfits as well. The performance and comfort are incredible - but I’m 55 and the wrestling match to put on and take off my boots is next level, even with a boot horn. This Shuvvie is an amazing solution - it’s almost effortless to get my boots on now. Worth every penny.
Amazing customer support. the liner sleeve is essential, makes the world of difference in bringing back some stomped out boot liners.
No noticeable difference with heel coming up, tried in 3 separate boots, same outcome in all. Pads the ankle somewhat which was comfortable but did nothing for heel lift as advertised.
Hello Jason,
Did you try wearing these on your feet? Please ensure they go over the outside of your liners.
