so i got some old ft konflicts last year and i love then, and heat molded them with thick socks and toe caps at a local shop. unfortunately this season they are just too tight on my toes. i dont want to blow any money on a new pair but i will if necessary. any thoughts on what i could do about this sticky situation?

I had exactly the same problem with my hot doggers last week
I went into the shop asking for advice, and they remolded them for free

Exact same thing happened to me 2 years in a row. Remold the liner at the shop and you should be fine for the season.

If you manage to wear out the liner from too many remolds, you can get new liners right from http://www.intuitionliners.com/ . I'm using the Dreamliner now instead of the Powerwrap that came with my boots and I don't think I'll have this issue again.

just keep skiing em, they will eventually pack out, mine used to be to small but i eventually wore out the backs of the liner like in shoes and now my boots fit perfectly if not a little sloppy but it is how i like it?
