Intuition Liners for Mukluks/over boots

I have liners that are 50/50, gray wool felt on the inside and white polypropylene felt on the outside half.

I see they look like ski boot liners.

But NEVER MIND at $176. per pair !!

"It seems
Ike an interesting option, they are fairly light, and no absorbent, so a good option when you might get wet feet, Like on river trips."

I agree on all counts, but holy guacamole batman, 176 dollars for a small amount of evazote foam?!

I've been making silnylon VBL booties recently. I think i could just make double booties (one slightly larger than the other), cut some evazote foam to similar shape, tape with tyvek tape, and fit between the silnylon booties. Or something similar. Won't be as pretty, but heck of a lot cheaper.

"But NEVER MIND at $176. per pair !!"

I own two pairs of Steger's, so I just ordered two pair of these. I'll bet they're toasty!

if you are looking to go this route, may i recommend you look at the the following –

Great finds Richard!
Those look like some very interesting options, and Palau certainly has a huge selection.

It seems that we have been looking enviously at the comfort, warmth and water resistance of ski boots, so it seems logical to look at similar systems for non skiing winter use.

People have been using over boots with running shoes inside and or mukluks for snowshoeing. These would be a lighter option than running shoes and insulation separate, and offer good comfort under snowshoe bindings. If you dunk you foot, these can be used with only slight. discomfort, whereas running shoes and thick socks would require a fire to be dried.

palau makes the baruntse liner, which has become a popular replacement liner for a variety of mountaineering boots. they come in every size and can be thermo molded. i have a pair for my old vasque ice 9000's. as for being comfortable under snowshoe straps, that to me is an open question. they have some, but not a lot of structure and if the mukluk compress, so will the liner to some degree. that being said, they do have more structure than say a Merrill trail glove or most other trail runners.
