November 4, 20178 yr Looking on new boots what's people's thoughts on the following. * 2018 GAERNE TRIALS BOOTS - CAMO * GAERNE BALANCE TRIALS BOOTS - OILED * GAERNE CLASSIC TRIALS BOOTS. Cheers all.
November 4, 20178 yr not sure on those but I have the gore tex gearnes. only had them a few weeks but very comfy and no problem paddling through streams.
November 4, 20178 yr Hi there, Just bought some new Balance, comfortable, flexible, light and waterproof.......highly recommended!
November 5, 20178 yr I have Gaerne balance oiled and they are Awesome boots...water resistant too. Also have a pair of Sid Zero, which are another Great boot...but not h20 resistant at all.
November 5, 20178 yr Gaerne Balance Oiled was my choice when buying and I don't regret. I was impressed. These boots are very high quality with really nice leather. Really comfortable. After 1 year use (around 100 practices) I had soles with 1 or 2 holes in place where it meets pegs most often. Treated with shoe-goo and it's back to original state. Very happy with mine.
November 5, 20178 yr If you have sensitive feet the soles are not as supportive as some of the other brands. Otherwise top notch boots.
November 5, 20178 yr The new style martin boots are also a good choice along side the gaernes . please feel free to contact kyle @ Rock2rockoffroad for further information
November 5, 20178 yr Have used Gaerne for a long time but over this period have become less and less durable and less and less protective and more and more expensive. I bought a pair of sidi boots last year and find them excellent quality, durability and very good suppport. Maybe not 100% waterproof but after a while npn are and I find skin pretty waterproof. With good socks even wet feet soon warm up- wet suit principal .
November 8, 20178 yr Author I've only gone and bought the Gaerne balance trials oiled. What can I say? Bloody awesome!! As comfort goes, need get on the bike in them now. Thanks for all your input guys much appreciated ?
January 17, 20188 yr Gaerne Balanced Oiled are great and the Alpine stars Tech are excellent too. The Gaernes are a bit more like slippers, the AS seem to offer more protection.
