I’ll level with you. I only picked up the Remind Destin insoles because I was curious if they could actually beat the Remedy (my go-to) or the Medic Impact (my backup). And since I already wrote about my top snowboard insoles and ski insoles, I figured I owed you the full scoop on this pair too.
So I threw them in my boots, rode them and here’s the deal…

Full Review
I rode the Remind Destin mostly at Jackson Hole and a couple of days over in Grand Targhee. On the snowboard side, I had them in my ThirtyTwo Lashed and DC Judge boots. For skiing, I slid them into my Lange RXs, which are my go-to for teaching days.
Compared to the Remedy and Medic (which I’ve already talked detailed writeups), the Destin feels lighter underfoot right away. It doesn’t bulk up the fit, which I noticed especially in my ski boots where space is already at a premium. Most of my testing was a mix of long groomer days while teaching, chasing soft snow in the trees and a few park laps just to see how much impact protection was there.
Remind Destin Insole Specs
On paper, the Destin is the “minimalist” option in the Remind lineup. It’s thinner than the Remedy or Medic, with less of that extra padding underfoot. The idea is simple: keep your boots feeling snug and connected, while still giving you more arch support and alignment than the stock junk that comes with every ski or snowboard boot.
Remind claims their foam blend is designed to reduce fatigue and help with overall posture, which honestly sounds like marketing fluff until you ride with them for a few days. They don’t feel fancy or overly cushy when you first slip them in. Instead, it’s a low-profile insole that kind of disappears once you’re riding, and that’s actually the point.
If you’re after impact absorption, you’re better off with the Medic. If you want an insole that balances comfort with responsiveness, the Remedy still sits in the sweet spot. But if you’re looking for something light, simple, and less intrusive, the Destin is the one that makes sense.
1. Fit & Support
The Destin isn’t trying to be a max-support orthotic. It’s slimmer and lower profile, which makes it easy to drop into both ski and snowboard boots without stealing space. In my ThirtyTwo Lashed and Lange RX, they gave just enough arch structure to stop that tired, collapsing feeling by mid-day, but without feeling like a bulky insert.
2. Comfort on Snow
Once you’re riding, you almost forget they’re there. That’s the point. They don’t add a ton of squish or cushion, but they smooth things out enough that you’re not fighting foot pain halfway through the day. On groomer laps at Jackson they kept me balanced and stable without numbing board or ski feel.
3. Durability
For such a thin insole, they’ve held up better than I expected. I’ve got about 25 days on them now and they haven’t packed out into nothing like most stock liners do. They’ll probably wear faster than chunkier options like the Medic, but for lighter, everyday use they seem solid.
4. Heat Molding
Unlike the Remedy, the Destin isn’t heat-moldable. What you see is what you get. The upside is that they’re dead simple… trim them, drop them in and ride. If you want a more custom, glove-like fit, you’ll need to look at something else, but for most people the out-of-the-box shape works fine.
5. Pros & Cons
Who They’re For
If you’re cruising most of the day, teaching, or just riding mellow terrain, the Destin is right up your alley. They’re light, comfy and don’t mess with your boot fit. Perfect if you just want something better than the sad piece of foam your boots came with.
Who They're NOT For
If you’re sending cliffs, hammering park laps, or your knees are already screaming at you, the Destin won’t cut it. Go straight to the Medic Impact or Remedy for real shock absorption and stronger support.
Alternative Options
- Heat moldable so you can dial them to your foot shape
- Deep heel pocket that locks you down and stops lift
- Support that helps fight arch collapse on long days
- Compatible with both ski boots and snowboard boots
- A solid step up from the flat stock footbeds most boots come with
Final Thoughts
The Destin is like the easy-going sibling in the Remind lineup. Not too techy, not too bulky, just a solid daily upgrade over stock insoles. They’re not miracle workers, but if you want something simple, affordable and comfortable, they’ll do the job. For big landings or all-day grind, I’d still take the Remedy or Medic, but for casual riding the Destin makes a lot of sense.
