AggieDave 6 #4 November 20, 2004 I know a good handful of people that won't jump with someone jumping in boots, for fear of getting seriously hurt by getting kicked by heavy/hard footware...something to think about.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

airtwardo 7 #6 November 20, 2004 I buddy of mine got me a new pair 2-3 years ago at an Army PX. They are the 'style' boots...not quite as 'squishie'. 3/4 in sole instead of 3 1/2 inches! ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

airtwardo 7 #9 November 22, 2004 Those are the "Accuri" boots! The "Style" boots has about 1/2 the sole (soul!) as those...and yours are even worn down a bit! Must be all those concrete landings at the track huh?! ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
