Little discussion on boots at Tim's tonight
I tried lots of different boots and most were all stiff and not that comfortable
I found these the most comfortable and were only like $240 or so Fox Racing Comp 5 Undertow Boots

I tryed those on last week. To narrow for my foot. Tried some boots on at FFun today. BWS GS Santiago they fit the best so far gortech too. 425$ I think ill go with work boots for while till i find the Cinderella fit im looking for. Also read that the TCX infinity are the same boot.
found this also seems to cheap to be true im gonna call tomorow.

http://msrmx.com/products/armor/boots/vx1I will be on my 3rd season with msr vx1 ATV boots and have no complaints. I could hike up a mountain in them and be fine. Bought them on a trip in the states for $99

I've had a pair of tech 3's for 3 or 4 years and they are starting to get uncomfortable. There's a ridge cutting into my leg on the inside of each boot where the hard plastic armor changes to leather (or whatever it is). After trying on a few other MX boots I've realized that these tech 3's feel like buckets of cement on my feet.
I like the function and comfort (from what I've read) of the SIDI adventure boots but I think I'll end up getting another full MX boot for the added support and protection.

i talked with dual sport plus today and the price as advertized is incorrect on the sidi adventure rain.seems they are in the process of dis-mantling the canada version of their web site...
i figured 280$ was to cheap fo Sidi.

Ironponydirect had tech 3s in certain sizes in their ebay store for $81 a few days ago for those who might be interested. Ive ordered from them before and were good to deal with.

I ended up getting the Sidi Crossfires. Used them in Moab and they work great. They fit much better than the old Tech 3's I had.
