July 10, 200719 yr Hello again, i have been looking further into buying boots and i have found a few pairs although most seem to be too expensive like the hebo boots and the sidi zeros. The diadora stone 2 is about right in terms of price and the alpinestars no stop looks good but is a bit pricey. I was wondering if people could tell me what these boots are like if they own them and also if they could recomend any other boots between 100 and 150 quid. Thanks for your help.

July 11, 200719 yr We've been using ATV boots if you need a lower cost alternative. More flexible, treaded sole and not as hi-tech looking (for the vintage folks). Typically a good boot will be US$100.
July 11, 200719 yr best boots ive ever had are the diadora stone 2 always keep my feet bone dry had about 12 months now and still very good
July 14, 200719 yr Had two pairs of Alpinstars now and can't complain about the comfort. Only downside is that both pairs have come unstitched above the foot towards the inside of the boot, where the leather meets the synthetic material. I got the second pair repaired for less than
July 15, 200719 yr Author Thanks for the replys, i have got a pair of alpinestars on ebay I tried on a pair of alpinestars tech3 motocross boots and they were extremely rigid and hard and i was wondering if the trials boots will be any more flexible and softer because the tech3s really restricted movement. Can anyone give me an opinion?

Mine were super comfy from the first time of wearing and have just got better. They are my first ever pair of trials boots, [newish to trials] so I am not an expert however I can compare them to my road/roadrace, MX and even my trainers come to that and they are be my first choice of footwear. Had mine for abou 10 months now, wear them once to twice a week and no problems at all, as yet. Got a funeral to go to this week and I would wear them there if they went with my suit.
July 17, 200719 yr Author Cheers guys, i should have said the alpinestars i bought were the trials no stop boots. Sounds good with the comfort, just need till the guy stops p****** me about, advertised as "as new boots" two hours use. Just emailed me saying he just noticed scratches on them eBay eh!

July 18, 200719 yr Author Got the pictures and deary me!

Anybody know where i can get a good price on these boots?
