I took the new boots to the track today, I hate them. I heard pretty good reviews about them, and i had heard that the previous years were not up to par with other brands. I bought them anyway. The major problem is there is a really uncomfortable spot on the boot. It hurts ( so bad that it affects my riding) in the front of my leg all the way on the bottom untill right before the top of my foot. At first i thouht i just needed to break them in, I rode at the track for 4 and a half soild hours of riding. That should have been enough has anyone exerienced this problem with this model boot? Second problem with the boot, not as severe is that sometime that buckles come undone

previous boot history, $ 100 cheap MSR boots, and then Tech 8's

no problem here

i have had the boots for 6 months and have had no problems whatsoever. i think they are rather comfortable actually. maybe you got a funky pair (the guy that made that pair probably went out the night before). :laugh:

are you wearing them to tight? When i really crank down my boots i get that same feeling you are talking about, i just wore them a tad looser and they were fine

now that u said that i do remember the first strap up from the bottom one. The one strap that seems to be giving me trouble is pulled out all the way, but the right boot is also pulled all the way out but it doesnt have the problem of hurting my leg like the left. Im gonna ride tomorrow and see if it feels any better

Make sure your pants and socks arent bunching up weird in there either because that can cause some of the pain you are describing.

I also had this same problem from a different company though. I tried the same make and model ON the showroom floor, Grabbed a different box, NP problem w/ that pair. My leg, from 1/2 way from my knee to my ankles, from that center down, my leg felt kinda numb, it was a F-up in the mold.
