NEW ! Stunt Boots

Postby j-rad » Wed Sep 19, 2007 11:51 am

Alpine Stars AND Thor both make a 'Shorty' boot for 50 racing.....

Now most of the 50s boots still have that nasty looking metal toe clip which, for road bikes, is not good for obvious reasons...

Thor and AlpineStars DON'T have the toe clips and they look as though they'll take a beating...

OR Google Search Shorty Boots or Alpinestar Tech 2 Shorty.

Cheers..

I am actually wearing some joe rocket boots which I wear out riding all the time, and although they are a little bit more bulky than normal shoes, and the soles are thicker, I find em pretty damn good and recon they will really take a beating if need be.

Just something else to throw into the mix of the boot debate :lol:

im runnin nike shoes, not sure waht model but they have a carbon fibre sole, and a big ankle strap. comfy as hell and nice and strong, awsome feel and the ankle strap really locks them on youre feet. best stunt boots ive ever worn

Love the Joe Rocket gear......those boots look good.

I just took delivery of a Joe Rocket SpeedMaster 5.0 1 pce suit + Suzuki GSXR Textile jacket - both brought from the States for a fraction of the cost for buying in AUS - for stuff they can't get ya for 6 + months.....

I am wearing the same boots, actually pretty keen to get some that aren't as heavy but these do protect you foot extreemly well.

good to hear your not too beat up dude. could have been alot worse by the sounds of it eh.
now here is the question that we all want to know. DID YOU GET IT ON CAMERA?

if you answered YES to this question, you have done well and will be rewarded accordingly. if however you answered NO you will be punished in a very bad way lol.
one day i will think of something smart to put here
