Seriously- have you ever seen boots for $55 shipped? Check out this site <click here>

I couldn't hep but give them a try and I was plesently surprised. The boots sizing were accurate (the size was the same as my Nike's) and they were relatively comfortable. They are not tennis shoes, but I had no complaints after walking around for a while in them when I met my wife for lunch.

These are GREAT boots for the price.




about the only thing I could complain about was that I don't like the white stitching, so behold the power of a magic marker (the boot on the right)



I like the carbon fiber effects, but I am not a fan of thet white and black checkerbox design next to the carbon fiber. Oh well...



If you don't have boots, then give these a try. There are better boots out there, but you will have to spend a heck of a lot more money to get them.

I'll vouch for the vega brand.  I am on my second pair of the techsport boots.  They are extremely comfortable and have good protection.  Better than regular boots.  By the way, I still have my first pair,  I just had to put some colored shoe goop around the sole.  I have had my first pair for 4 years and still a great boot.  My second pair I use for when I go to track.  Great boots for the price.  I've had the a-star smx and the smx plus... I like these better.

I just bought the boots, hopefully for the price they will be as good as you two have said they will be. I bought an 11 because they dont have 10 1/2 so I dont think that will be a problem.

You can''t even buy a decent pair of sneakers for that price.

I like the boots...still. I drove from Birmingham, AL to the tail of the dragon for the weekend (and back) and the boots did well. They got a little warm, but I guess that is expected. I never had a comfort issue with the boots.

My lower back, however, was killing me after 800+ miles in one weekend!

Overall, for the money, I still highly recommend these boots. If I had an extra $300, then I probably would have gone with something else.

Flashman, let us know how you like them.

Onarom,

I have a pair of them this will be the second season on them and the are comfortable, no problems when waling around them either.

The only thing I lost was one of the screws that hold the toe guard in and the dealer replace it no problems. I did go back home and reinstalled all of the screws with blue locktite no mopre problems!!!!!

All in all damn nice boot for the $$$$$$

I will, UPS says they will be here tomorrow so all weekend I will be trying them out. Glad you still like yours! Now I bought the 11 because I am a usually a 10 1/2 so I dont think that will be a major issue. I wear my shoes larger anyway so we will see.

I bought a pair of these almost 2 years ago and even though I don''t wear them that much they are good quality boots for that price. If you aren''t looking to spend too much on a pair these are ones to consider.

So far I like the boots. I got mine slightly larger since they dont offer 1/2 sizes. I got the 11 and it is a half size to large. So they do fit pretty much true to size. It is comfortable even being large. My only draw back is the top of the boot is rather larger so if you dont tuck your pants inside the boot it will be wide open. That leads to needing long socks or tucking your pants in to keep it from rubbing on your leg. Not to much of a bother just enough to notice when you walk. Walking isnt bad either, so I have to say I am pleased with the boots for the price.
