Product Description

- Firm 1/8" thick foam rubber resists compression.
- Backed with pressure sensitive adhesive.
- Adhere to the outside of the boot liner.
- Foam can be sanded and trimmed for a precise fit.
- 1/8" thick firm foam.

Installation Tips:
- Remove liners from boot.
- Make sure the boot liners are warm and dry.
- Slide foot into liner and locate ankle bones, marking their position on the outside of the liner with a pen or chalk.
- Remove foot from liner.
- Peel backing from pad, apply pad to the boot so the wings of the pad are positioned just below the ankle bone (the mark you made above). Wings should angle down.
- Press pad firmly to boot liner (some liners are more resistant to the adhesive, in this case you can use Duct Tape or Barge Cement to hold the pad in place).
- When sliding the liner back in the boot be aware that the pad does not catch on any part of the boot shell.
- Go ski!
- If you discover pressure points you can remove that section of the pad carefully with a sharp blade.

Amazed
I am amazed an impressed how well this simple product works. Stuck it to the back of my boot liner as depicted and my heel hold increased exponentially. It did however move my foot slightly forward which caused me to need to have my liner molded and stretched to make more room for my toes. The tack on the back isn't really strong and I can see it moving around, so I would suggest grabbing some duct tape to place over it. Not the most visually appealing but who cares what the liner looks like.

helped lock down my ankle
was in misery in new mountaineering boots due to a wide forefoot and narrow heel; I was getting blisters on my heels after 1/4 mile of ascent; the ankle wrap pads (trimmed to fit) really helped lock down my heels in combination with heel lifts
