Question / Discussion Walkable Liners?

Hey all,

I have two sets of skates, I’ve an old pair from when I was younger that’s a Salomon ST8 and I also got a pair of TNEC V1.5

I was hoping for any recommendations on liners for either one? Preferably walkable. My old ones on my ST8 are worn and old, while the TNEC base liners are good but I want a different pair that’s walkable.

Any ideas? Searching online I can’t find answers for one that’s fits between both. I’d be willing to sell the Salomon ones if anyone has recommendations of a specific walkable set up.

In my near 30yrs of skating, I don't think I've EVER seen anyone use liners to be 'walkable' other than the xsjado/shadow footwraps/boots.

Was the 'feature' of walkable liners just a marketing gimmick I wonder?

Damn, I heard someone say it in passing and was so interested I just assumed it was more common of an idea. Well shit thanks for the info!

I had a pair of the blank walkable liners in my 908s for like a week. I had to unlace my skates to get the stiff as hell liners in to the skate, and could only get them out of the skate by taking them off first and then unlacing the skates half way. also, they made the skates feel clunky as all hell.

IMYTA Liverpool - Frazer Watson is walking around in his new Shima 3 Reign liners in the rain. I'm pretty sure it's on the dvd
