Andy, the carpet was inside the boots!

I know that !!
But can you provide further advice please?
Synthetic, wool or wool blend for the best results?

Axminster or Wilton?

We need to know.......

I once rode a gondola with a ski patroller who had some thick ski socks over her boot liners (between the shell and the liner). She said that it was an old trick she had used for ages to extend the life of her boot liners once they had compressed.

Give it a try. Remove the liner from the shell, put a thick ski sock around the outside of the liner, then place the liner back into the shell.

Let us know if it works out for you.

That's sounds like a great idea. Maybe some duct tape to hold the sock in place and allow the liner/sock combo to slide into the boot more easily.

There you go. J2lateral thinkers!

Oh, and erm, Wilton, Axminster, wool blend? Look folks I was broke, skint, kein spondules. It was unter die bett, out of sight, available. I knew that one day there would be a reckoning, but it was a long time down the road. I also took a beating about the ski wax on the kitchen floor, and letting out the big cupboard as a bedroom. Ahh well.....

Brilliant idea! If there are any pressure points just cut holes in the socks.

This is getting better and better!! I have some tubes somewhere and duct tape I will investigate now!!
