I have recently been experimenting with some walking blocks for my hardshell ski boots. The problem is that hardshell boots have a chunk of forward lean built in and are slippery to walk in. There are some detachable soles available that you can slip on for walking through the carpark etc but that means carrying them when skiing and taking them on and off etc. I have fitted a couple of 10mm thick rubber blocks as in the photo. These allow rocking when walking which is way more natural, increase grip, and allow a more natural stance when standing in the bar on tired legs. They clear the bindings when skiing, and allow the normal boot angle. They fit both my Receptor and my Riser. Walking feels way more natural, but the big gain comes when standing upright on a hard floor (skibus or bar LOL).
Just now they are simply glued on, which allows eval without harming the boots.
Dead simple, dirt cheap.
