Cork in boot liners?
Snagged a new pair of Nordica boots which ski wonderfully, but noted that they have cork in the boot liner. Not a huge oenophile, but I know that with wine bottle corks dry out and hence you have to lay the bottles on their side to keep the cork from becoming desiccated and brittle. Is this going to happen to the boot liners over time? Should I be filling them with pinot over the summer and laying them on their side?
Just curious about the longevity of using cork as a liner material. Realize there are experts in the community that would know if there's something different about the way cork is incorporated into liners that keep it from becoming dry and brittle over time.
