Lock in your lower leg. Eliminate shin bang. Boost control.
The Tongue Shim is your go-to fix for excess volume, poor cuff contact, and painful shin bang. Whether your boots feel too roomy up top or you’re tired of over-tightening just to get support, this simple upgrade delivers a better fit without the fight.
Made from premium EVA foam, it absorbs impact and fills the gap between your shin and boot tongue — helping you ski with more comfort, control, and consistency.
Perfect for:
-
Narrower legs or low-volume shins
-
Packed-out liners
-
Eliminating pressure points
-
Creating a more even flex pattern
Backed with 3M adhesive, these shims are easy to install and stay locked in place. For best results, apply with a little heat to activate the bond.
Sold as a pair (2 Tongue Shims).

Who needs footbeds?
+
Every skier should have a footbed! If you are skiing without one, you are seriously limiting your ability to ski at your best. A footbed is the solution to the majority of ski boot fit issues. They are the key to being comfortable and give you the support you need to go out and send it.
-
How long will my footbeds last?
+
The support and shape of the footbed will not ever deteriorate! However, the shock absorbing foam will compress and pack down over time. To experience the best comfort and full shock absorbing capability of your footbeds, its recommended you replace your footbed every 100-150 ski days. This will be a similar lifespan to your boot liners.
-
Why should I buy a Patriot Footbed?
+
What sets Patriot Footbeds apart is how they support your feet when you ski. The spherical arch shape and dynamic frame means the footbeds will work with your feet for increased stability and instant response to your skis. Unlike our competitors who make static and flimsy insoles, Patriot footbeds are a robust and shock absorbing platform that will transform your ski boots. Seriously, the proof is in the pudding. I urge you to try them and let us know your feedback. You will be stoked!
-
Will they work with my aftermarket liners?
+
Yes, all Patriot's gear is built low profile to suit any boot and liner configuration you choose to ski.
-
What the best size liner sleeve for a 25.5 boot
+
25.5 really is the transition size of the sleeves. We suggest if you have a High Volume (HV) boot, that you will likely see better success with a M/L size sleeve.
For regular and narrow width boots, the Small sleeve will fit best and you will see great results once the liner adapts with 1-3 days of use.
-
What is the difference between the ski and snowboard liner sleeve?
+
There is no difference in the sleeves construction. They will work perfectly on either boot.
We find that snowboarders are more likely to utilise the included J bars into the rear pocket for extra grab.
-
How long will my order take to ship?
+
Between 1-10 days dependant on where you are located, but we have 3 shipping locations to make sure we get your gear to you as fast as possible.
