Intuition Classic RD Replacement Ski Boot Liners - Medium Volume
CLASSIC RD liners are closest to The Original Intuition liners. Slightly softer than the HD version, they work best in boots and applications where comfort is a priority. This medium-density, medium thickness, wrap style liner features single seam construction down the sole, minimizing the potential for pressure points.
The Classic RD is a medium volume liner and works best with a shell fit* of 1.5-2 fingers (1/2″-1¼”)
Size up on the half size (ex.: 27.5 = 28)
This model can be worn ‘out of the box’, heat molded with a home fit kit, or fit by a professional boot fitter.
Specs: 12mm Sole, Anti-Microbial Lining Treatment, Wrap style liner
How it’s made!
For Intuition liners, only the best will do. All of our products are made from our very own, specially formulated thermo-forming closed-cell EVA foam. This foam consists of millions of tiny cells, or bubbles, which are created by pouring measured amounts of the mixed ingredients into a two-piece mold which is heated slowly and evenly to a specific temperature and pressure. It is then allowed to cool to ambient temperature before the mold is opened and the foam is removed.
Why it’s great!
Only Intuition has access to this unique material, which has a very uniform cell structure and high percentage (70% – 80%) of cross-linkage between molecules in each cell wall.
This means that the foam does not allow the gases in each of the tiny bubbles to migrate to the others, which would change the shape of the foam.
The membrane between the cells is treated with chemical “fillers” which create a more homogeneous membrane. These properties result in the ability to heat-mold the foam into a specific shape, which it will retain until re-heated. This is how Intuition guarantees the highest quality ‘memory’, the least heat-related shrinkage, and the most resistance to ‘packing out’.
Weight & Warmth
All Intuition foams are much lighter than materials used in traditional stitched and injection liners. Our liners are not weighed down by heavy plastics or powder fillers, and even our stiffest cuff reinforcements are made of 100% foam. Intuition liners will not only provide you with superior warmth and comfort, they are also up to 0.5 kilograms (1 pound) lighter than other brandS.
Molding Intuition liners to your foot and your boot at the same time, allows us to provide a completely customized, full-contact fit. The process requires that the liner be heated for a period of time, until the foam is soft and malleable. It is then ready to mold to your foot and the inside of your boot for increased comfort and improved performance. The foam can be reheated several times without compromise, which means molded liners can be spot-heated for small specific adjustments, or completely re-molded to fit them to new shells or footbeds.
