Think Foam Gary, think Foam !

Joking aside, I find the almost all liners except the foam, pack out pretty quickly.
In your case, it seems that the thinner liner just wasn't enough for your fit.

The feedback you have after you have the thicker liners will be interesting.

Do you think you will need a few ski days of slight compression discomfort before they
feel broken in?

I am feeling the need for new liners. The new Nordica shell (courtesy of Phil) is great.
So much less boot than my previous one. But while the size is the same, the actual length is about 5mm longer.
And my shorter right foot is feeling some extra room which I don't need.

Keep us posted.
