Regarding Palau – send them an email with your foot measurements and boot, they will tell you what to buy. worked well for me.

In reply to Chris.

Chris, generally speaking you’ll find a lot more info about Intuitions than Palaus, especially as an aftermarket liner. Palau is often the factory liner- possibly even OEM on the Spectre- but I’m not sure about that. The Palaus in this review lasted me a couple of seasons. Strictly in terms of durability, I think I’ve done better with the Intuition Pro Tour that I was using last year and don’t seem to show much wear at all…

Hi,
While searching for information on Palau liners, I came across your site. Thanks for the review and info.
I’m looking for more durable liners for the LaSportiva Spectre. I’ve skied these boots for three years, and at best, get one season out of the factory liners. They’re nicely designed for the boot, and the fit and comfort is good initially, but they quickly wear out. I haven’t tried Intuition liners in years and no one around here stocks them to look at. I’m also concerned about their lack of durability being about the same as the stock liner.

Any advice regarding which model might work best from their current lineup? Are you still happy using the Palau liners? Do you know anyone in the States who has more experience with Palau liners? I’ve emailed them directly with questions, but between my incompetence in French, and their very rough English, communication is tough.

Any advice appreciated. Thanks,

In reply to Thor. Thor, my liners are marked 25.5- same size as the Cochise shells. Not sure what my advice would be going up or down- I guess it would depend on whether or not you're trying to take up more space, or less inside the shell.

How did you size the Palau liners? I’ve got the same year’s Cochise boots you do — size “29” which is a 29/29.5 shell with a liner perplexingly marked as a “28.5-30.5” — I assume it is actually a size 29 liner.

I’m pondering whether to go for the Palau in a 29 or a 29.5. Intuition give different advice whether to round up or down depending which liner model you’re buying; even the French Palau site doesn’t seem to say much.
