Good luck with the zipfits @Mudgirl630 ! Kinda interesting to see my last post on this thread, one year ago. I've had 40 ski days on the zipfits since then. I had more OMfit added to the heel of my smaller foot (2 tubes worth) which improved them. I may get a bit more added to both feet this season but I'll see how they go. Overall they worked really well for me last season. I will say that they don't really remove any volume at all from the front of the boot, but the better heel/ankle hold makes up for it. I also find my custom insole helps keep my forefoot in place, somehow.
Too true, on both fronts I only got 20-30 days out of the stock liners. I still use the hawx boot shells though, the whole setup with the hawx+zipfits has become surprisingly tolerable. The new liners helped a lot, I would have had to replace the boots otherwise. I still get cold feet sometimes though :(Their liners are much better than my previous boots, Atomic Hawk. Their liners went flat very fast. I weigh about 125, 5'7". They were also super cold boots.
