Full Tilt Sizing question

So I have a pair of 28.5 fulltilt hot doggers (purple ones from last season). They fit very very well, but I get the feeling the sometimes they may be a tad lil big, unless im just a bitch when I tighten my boots and just need them tighter, but I was wondering if you can get 28 liners and if they would work well with the same boot.

Adding different liners wont solve the problem, all that will happen is that the liner will move around inside the boot, instead of your foot moving around inside the liner.
Watche the tech talk from a couple of weeks ago, about how to pad out your existing liners. Crank your buckles up, and get properly fitted next time

you are completely retarded. the 28 and 28.5 have the exact same shell it will say so right on the outside probably on the side of the heel. The only difference is that the 28.5's have a thinner liner therefor making them a tiny bit bigger. If he puts in a 28 liner it will help him get them tighter.

Yes.
Nicky's post was baaaaadddd. Dont listen to that post. A 28 will have more padding and fit tighter.

But only for about 10 days. Even quicker if he heat molds the boot. Liners always pack out to the shell's dimensions, especially when heat molded. Is the 28.0 thicker than the 28.5, slightly. Is it narrower, slightly. Will both pack out to the shell's dimensions anyways, yes.
If you are in the correct shell size, have a footbed, and are looking to take up a bit of space in your current set-up, save the $190 you'd spend on new liners and go to your shop and buy some $3 Bontex shims. They go underneath your liner (and footbed) and do a great job of eating up slop in your boot. Try that before you sink the money on a new liner.
