Skiboot Liners

ZipFit liners replace the standard liner in your ski boot. Instead of foam, their chambers contain a cork-based blend that adapts to your foot through body heat and pressure.

• 
  Cork instead of foam: The material retains its shape and provides excellent insulation.
• 
  No oven needed: The liner shapes itself while you ski, with no need to heat it up in the shop.
• 
  Targeted chambers: The padding is positioned around the ankle, heel, and instep—exactly where empty spaces form.
• 
  For your shell: You insert it into your existing ski boot. A new boot is not required.

Foam ski boot liners become softer and thinner after a few days of skiing; they “wear out.” A ZipFit Liner retains its shape and keeps your foot exactly where it belongs.

• 
  Heel hold: Your heel stays down, even when leaning forward aggressively.
• 
  No stretching out: The fit remains the same season after season.
• 
  More control: Less movement inside the boot means a more direct response on the edge.
• 
  Warmth: Cork insulates without restricting circulation.
• 
  Transferable: If you buy new ski boots, you can simply transfer the liner.

Our bootfitting experience: Many support and pressure issues can be resolved simply by using the right liner.

The models differ primarily in padding and volume. The less space there is between your foot and the shell, the thinner the liner should be.

• 
  ZipFit Gara: The slimmest model, for tight race and low-volume shells and athletic riders.
• 
  ZipFit Freeride: Medium volume all-rounder for piste and all-mountain.

Other models: Sidewinder Race, Workhorse Leather, GFT - Hybrid Neoprene Shoes, Corsa Leather, Espresso Touring, Gara LV, Gara HV

It is best for us to decide together which model suits your shell during the fitting.

Into most alpine ski boots, yes. The key is that the volume of the liner fits the space in your boot.

• 
  Common alpine boots: Whether Atomic ski boots, Nordica ski boots or Salomon ski boots, ZipFit fits into the shells of all major brands.
• 
  Tight race shells: Here you need a slim model, otherwise it will be too tight.
• 
  Boots with walk mode: We check whether the liner does not restrict the shaft movement.
• 
  Check in the shop: Bring your ski boot with you. Then we can test right away which liner fits.

Replacing the ski boot liner is usually cheaper than a completely new boot.

The size is based on your shell size, i.e., the Mondopoint size of your ski boot.

• 
  Half sizes: Often, two sizes share a shell, for example 26 and 26.5. The liner is based on the shell.
• 
  Size chart: You can find the size chart for each Zipfit product next to the shopping cart under (Size Chart)!
• 
  Between two sizes: What matters is how much space your shell offers. Foot length alone is not enough.
• 
  To be safe: Bring your ski boot into the shop. Then we can adjust the size directly.

A ZipFit liner adapts over the first few days of skiing. At first, it will feel tighter than your old boot liner. This is normal and intentional.

• 
  First runs: The liner will feel tight. The cork needs warmth and movement to spread out.
• 
  After a few days of skiing: The padding will have settled around your ankle and heel, and the fit will become comfortable and secure.
• 
  Pre-warm: Warm the liner and boot before putting them on. Cold cork is stiffer.
• 
  Start with loose buckles: Don't tighten them too much at first, so the cork can move.

Yes, in many cases. A cork liner insulates well and provides support without having to tighten the buckles extremely.

• 
  Insulation: Cork conducts cold worse than thin, exposed foam.
• 
  Less pressure: The foot is supported instead of squeezed, and the blood circulates.
• 
  No voids: Where there is no air, the foot cools down more slowly.
• 
  Thin sock: A thin ski sock is enough. Thick socks take away the space from the cork.

For very cold feet, we also check in the shop if the shell presses anywhere.

Here in Flachau, you’ll find all ZipFit models, along with boot fitting right in the shop.

•

• 
  Model selection: You try the right liners directly in your ski boot.

ZipFit boot liners cost between €399.99 and €529.99 with us, depending on the model and version.

• 
  Multiple boots: The liner lasts longer than a shell. You take it with you in your next ski boot.
• 
  Instead of a new boot: If your shell still fits but the liner is worn out, a ZipFit is often the more sensible solution.
• 
  Fit remains: The cork does not wear out, so you don't have to replace it every season.
• 
  More ski days: Without pressure points and cold feet, you ski longer and more relaxed.
