Product Overview
Ski or snowboard boots too big? These insole shims are the simplest way to take up extra volume. Simply insert the shim between the boot shell and liner (not inside the liner) and the extra volume will disappear. If unsure size up, you can easily trim them to fit (see shim lengths below). Available in two thicknesses.
- Light, flexible, durable and resistant to compression.
- Their non-woven, resin saturated, polyester composition provides additional insulation and resists mildew
- 3/32" (2.3mm) for those who just need a little tightening up.
- 5/32" (3.96mm) for those whose boots are obviously too big, and for most soft snowboard boots.
- Sizes are based on men's street shoe size, we recommend sizing up one size and trimming as needed (see shim lengths below).
- Actual shim color may vary.
- Sold in a pair

2 Sizing
Posted by Kas on Mar 04, 2016
The 8-9 insole does not fit in my size 9 boots at all. It's a full size too short and very narrow in the heels. Am I missing something here? Please contact me if I am...is it supposed to be short?

5 No Substitute!
Posted by ChuckBob on Feb 16, 2016
I have narrow AA feet, and there is NO substitute for Bontex insoles! Cut them to size, and place underneath existing insoles. Reduces shoe volume, and without adding squishy padding that won't hold up. Also adds little more protection from bottom impacts. Bontex is very durable, waterproof, and mold-free.

5 a must have to adjust boot fit
Posted by 6020 on Jan 08, 2015
I usually have to take up some extra volume in boots. Supportive footbeds like Superfeet don't do it all. These shims allow u to use your favorite footbed and then take up more volume for a snug fit. Buy your own shims And avoid extra time and money at the ski shop

5 Simple, Strong and Flat
Posted by Snowman on Feb 16, 2013
Well, these are just flat pieces of material intended to take up space in your shoe, boot, whatever, and they do. They're durable, don't crinkle when being installed and provide a sturdy base. It's kind of amazing how much space even the 1/16th size takes up.

4 Worked well
Posted by Butch on Feb 10, 2013
Skied about 10 mornings with them and they helped fill my boots that really need new liners. Just got some new foot beds and now I'm good for the rest of the season.

What's to review?....these are moisture resistant fiberboard that are exactly right to take up excess space in the foot area of the boot. Ankle or heel loose?...use a different product. Foot loose?...use Bontex insoles.
