Sounds like they'd be excellent for me; can one buy them from the manufacturer, or are they an ebay sort of thing?

Answer to my own question: found 'em on Ebay, in 8 or 10 only. Not so sure about stuffing the 10's into my 27 Excursions; I'm a 9.5. Which leads me to the temptation of springing for the Pro Tours, encouraged by BGregoire's glowing recommendations of that liner.

As much as I like the pro tour, I'd be very tempted to try the Morrow 10 in those 27s first. Let me know how it goes if you do.

Aha, I thought you might have some insight on that! Do you thing the Morrow's might fit well enough? Anything you find preferable with them?

I have a size US42 foot at 263mm. The Morrow liner I have is I believe a size 27 (so probably a US9?) and its actually a tad small for me after thermolding.

Perhaps the 28 would suit me better, but I never bothered ordering it.

These are fine liners for 2 clip boots and the price is right. It might be worth the try as they are what, like 10 times cheaper than a full priced Intuition liner?

My dynafit/Palau CR (custom ready) 28mp liners from my TLT 6s worked in my 27.5 Excursions. Much softer, less supportive than the original stitched liner. My US 10 Koflach liners fit in the Excursions too. But they are sculpted even narrower thru the toe box than the Garmonts.
