Race style boots
 
As the weather gets nicer am looking to shed my waterproof ones.

Fancy a new pair of race style boots. Safety is paramount really. Looking to spend up to say £130? not sure on this really but will give it a go!

Have a look on evilBay - you should be able to get some Sidi Vertigos for that money. I have just brought these beauties for £180 - a full £70 cheaper than my local stealer!

Edit: Forgot to mention comfy as slippers!

I was aftersome race boots in november last year. I went around all the local bikes shop as I always do when looking for new stuff and tried most boots available for under £250

I ended up with some Alpinestar SMX+ boots. I have a dodgy ankle and these provided the most ankle support out of any boot, felt to provide themost protection, they feel amazing through the pegs and you can feel exactly what going on and they were almost the most comfortable

Cant remember how much they were but between £160 - £180 rings a bell

Those are top boots, I got a pair via here for the mrs at a grand cost of 35 quid and there like new:)

I use the alpinestars smx5 and have found them really comfy.

TCX Competition S

They come in black as well RS are more expensive but i want the competition s, tried some on at work so nice, hinted to parents that they could be an 18th bday present as my vertigos are too big and are falling apart.

I tried those smx5 nice but sligthly too small and they had no size 10's :( going back next weekend to buy some i think.

DO NOT buy sidi vertigos the build quality is crap, all the stitching on mine is shot and the soles are completely knackered (torn and i've had to superglue em back on).
