I bought a new pair of Novogar trials boots last July and to my disapointment I have wore a hole through the sole. The hole is about 20 mm x 30mm and located on the righthand boot instep. Has anyone had a pair of boots resoled or should i bite the bullet and buy a new pair maybe just use these in the dry months ?

Now I'm sure I've seen soles for Diadora's and Hebo boots available too buy as an item? if so surely it'd be worth buying these and hobble along too your local cobblers?

there is a new sole on the novogars now. I helped to develop it. you will not wear it out in 3 years. crosser

Martin,

I think the new colours look brilliant and the only thing putting me off was how quickly the soles wore out on the old ones. I take it the new colour scheme has the new tougher soles?

All the new styke boots have the new sole by Vibram, My boots are over 18 months old now but the sole has hardly worn. I am very hard on boots/bikes

That's more than good enough for me. Thanks.

Are you sure its not your foot pegs that are wearing all your boots out? Try Pivot pegs - my husband has had his Sidi boots for nearly a year and they are like brand new and they are used every weekend more or less.

Yes, it def is the footrests that wear them out.

It's just that Alpinestars last about three times longer than the Novogars.

If the new Gars have tougher soles, then I'll go for those again.

Has any one bought a pair of these new OXTAR trials boots?-

Its not my pegs thats causing the damage its closer to my big toe , if anything its the back break pedal. The hole is now full of silicone and with a new plastic bag on my foot I should be dry for at least a couple of sections next Sunday . Wow those Oxtar boots Look good enough to go out in ..

I like the look of These and theyre cheap, they also claim they are waterproof

Heard lots of good things about Oxtar road boots I must admit! Now who on here has loads of money and rides lots? maybe a SSDT entrant could kindly buy them and test ride them for the masses?

Have you read the disclaimer about not being 100% waterproof. Wadind through streams is a little different from riding through the odd puddle. Therefore the use of that plastic bag from Next which appered when you got home from last sundays trial may be required

anyone know anything about these??
