- Опубликовано: 22 июл 2018
- July is boot fit month. As such we're going over the basics of how things work and why things happen before we delve into the steps to fix any issues that arise. In this video we're going to show you how to tweak the arch support in your aftermarket footbeds so it better accommodates those with a flatter foot.

Time does not erode the validity of your videos. Keep it up
But they do show the inferior quality of the production. Redoing all of these to help you guys.
Dude, I've beem riding since the late 80s. Usually getting 30 to 50 days a year. Never had foot problems. Lately my arches have been cramping up after a few days of riding. Just ordered some Shred Soles. Thanks for all the great content. 👍🏼
I dealt with so much arch pain with my low arches the last two seasons. It's September but I'm finally getting around to trying to dial in my boots, liners, and insoles. Thanks angry
You got this!
Great tip
As Todd said - widening boots around the toe box area please
Grear tip, thanks! I got some remind insoles this season. They're awesome, but are thicker than the stock k2 insoles, leading to a squeeze in my toe box (balls of foot through the toes). Any way to alleviate that? I really don't want to go back to the stock soles!
1. Heat mold the liner now that you have a new footbed in there that will tweak the fit.
2. Grind the footbed down
3. Ride more till the boot breaks in.
Is there a video coming on widening boots that are a touch too narrow even after heat molding?
Not a lot you can do to widen snowboard boots - the shell can't be heat treated and stretched/punched like a ski boot.
manners!
Hi my boot length is perfect(toes pressing snug) but getting a bit of side to side wiggle room in toe box…after experimenting at home I find putting in a aftermarket insole on top of the existing one relives the problem and gives a tight fit…is there any reason not to double up the insole?
A ton of reasons. One is that's not the right boot for your foot.
@@AngrySnowboarder I have the same issue, a bit of play around the ball of foot after packing out - only 4 months left of my season/work visa before I head home - any tips to make it better or just deal with it?
Any opinion on those footprint gamechangers insoles? The heat molding Option sounds interesting...
They're OK. Personally I question the whole molding process of them.

OK thanks, so I will buy the remind medics.
I am very often dealing with a sharp, stabbing pain on my sole of foot while riding. In the middle and towards the Outside. Do you have any (boot fiting) solution for that problem?
Might my boots be too narrow?
@@asd6182 Lack of metatarsal arch support, boots to narrow, boots to wide, boots too big, weak arches, etc. etc. etc.
@@AngrySnowboarder Haha thanks. I have wide feet (left foot EE, right foot EEE following brannock) and really snug fitting boots (DC Lynx), so too wide and too big can't be the issue. For the rest I guess I need to check a doctor and I should look out for wider boots - that nearly don't exist this wide...Do you have any idea for us wide footed People?
@@asd6182 Knowing that, it's either boots too narrow and pushing the foot together causing metatarsal pain which could also be a lack of metatarsal arch support, or it could be that you need to heat mold the liner and then slit the outside of it by the pinky toe knuckle back so that it has more give in it.
Do you think aftermarket insoles will prevent toe bang and my big toe nail turning purple?
Boots too big, if you get a thicker insole it'll bring you up and reduce some of the slippage.
@@AngrySnowboarder Major improvement. Not just feet but ankles and knees
You should do a vid on how to fix broken eyelets and stuff like that. Or how to fix a broken boa/speed lace system.
You mean warranty.
Angry Snowboarder sorry I’m Reading this a week later, what if I have an older pair of boots and I don’t want to spend the money on new ones just cause an eyelet/hook snapped off when I was lacing up my boots. I’d rather just try to fix it.
Why would you buy insoles with high arch support when your feet don’t have high arches?
I’ve just bought some of these because I do have a very high arch. I’ve used the same footbeds for nearly 20 years (but realistically maybe 40 weeks of riding) so thought I’d try some new ones 😁
You haven't gotten new footbeds in 20 years? Dear god man!
@@AngrySnowboarder 17 to be exact BUT they were expensive (to me at the time £30 or so) and heat moulded.
Your foot changes every 3 years or sooner depending on what you do. 30 pounds isn't that big of an investment when it alleviates so many other problems. Don't be cheap on your health.
