An inner boot fitting system for use with boot systems utilizing a relatively stiff outer shell and a removable flexible inner liner includes fitting structure constructed and arranged for positioning adjacent an outside surface of the liner. This fitting structure may be in the form of shims or injectable pliable containers or bags, which are used to custom fit the inner liner to an individual's foot positioned within the liner. Fitting structures are heated to the softening temperature specific to their material of construction so that material will flow away from any high pressure areas when tightened around a foot inside the assembled boot system. After heating, the assembled boot is worn for a period of time sufficient to permit the shims to deform in harmony with the pressure profile between the wearer's foot and the inside of the shell.
