Not sure if you can do this or not, i think you can but im double checking. Can you wash your liners? I have the 2012 Full Tilt Booters...and well...they smell from my feet, obviously, so my mom wants to wash the liners but will the liners shrink in size? Will i loose the heated mold?

Put them in the freezer overnight.

Take the liners out every day after skiing and put them over a heating vent, or get a boot dryer.

I wouldn't wash them becasue they'll probably lose the custom fit.

Putting them in the freezer might work but I'm not sure.

Prevention is better than a cure; dry them out fully after every single day either by pulling the liners out and leaving in a warm place or by using boot dryers.

Hand-washing reportedly works OK on Intuitions. Or freeze for two days. Or Febreeze. Rando Steve has it covered: www.tetonat.com/2012/03/06/de-stink-the-stink/

I put my intuition liners in the wash all the time. on medium temperature and they were fine.

the only time I ruined liners was when I put bleach in them.

My opionion:
1. Freeze them for atleast 24 hrs
2. Febreeze
3. Tell your mom to fuck off and keep them the way they are

I contacted FT about this in the summer, they were pretty sure its fine to wash them in water by hand; thats what I did with soap and water, then rinse them really well and let them dry for like a week (took a while to fully dry all the way through.) I froze them after that too for 2 days.

But yeah I washed them in soapy water; rinsed well and let dry for a long time outside of the boot; like the intuition liner site says though; wash and rinse in cold water.

i've wore my boots 200+ days and they dont stink at all. if you wear clean socks and take your liners out everynight they should never stink. i know a few people who wear their ski socks multiple times before washing them
