Does your boot get wet easily? the bottom of my liner is always wet when i take them out to dry after a day of skiing and i checked to see if there was a crack in the bottoms but there's not. is anyone else experiencing this?

Ya idk always happens to me i think its cuz the liner is only covered by the tongue, its not a big deal cuz i always take out my liners evrynight and pop em infront of the heater.

It doesn't happen to me but I'm thinking that it could just be your foot sweating? I don't know because its cold where I am except for spring and this is my first year with them. Just guessing though.

Mine are always pretty moist on the inside, but I think it's just sweat. Also, minor threadjack, hope you don't mind OP, but I've noticed every time I take out the liner, the fabric on the top layer always gets a tiny little tear (Only on the very top layer). Will duct tape over the rivet holes help that?

I havent experienced this problem with my boots, it could be sweet, it could be snow/water getting in, either i suggest you purchase yourself a pair of wool socks. They will keep you warm even if they get wet, unlike cotton.

I don't even have full tilts and at the end of a full day my liners are usually soaked, I think it's just a trait of ski boots, either that or your feet are sweating.
