I have the dalbello krypton pros? And once the day gets in i start to get a little bit of loose ness in my heel, I’ll tighten my boots so tight that I start to lose circulation but I still get a little bit of heel slippage as the day goes on.

The liners right now are rock solid so maybe I need new liners in general? Or could I go down a half size in my liner?

Half sizes are a myth. There's no difference.

Do you have footbeds? Have the liners been heat molded? How many ski days are on them in total?

Me personally have put probably 20 days on them. But I bought them used so I’d guess a LOT more. They seem pretty beat up honestly. I heat molded them when I first got them but didn’t seem to make much of a difference.

I don’t have footbeds either. Would you stick those in the shell or inside the liner?

In the liner, and then re-heat mold.

Once you stabilize your foot, then you can add pads around your ankles. But it works the best once you get footbeds first.
