boofont Posted December 23, 2006 Report Share Posted December 23, 2006 Had two pairs, they don't last. I won't be buying them again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munch Posted December 23, 2006 Report Share Posted December 23, 2006 best boots ,ive tried most. comfy too but only my opinion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spud Posted December 23, 2006 Report Share Posted December 23, 2006 best boots ,ive tried most. comfy toobut only my opinion! :agree: They need to be looked after. Don't jet wash them wash-em with hot soapy water then dry off. Boot polish is good and i've heard furniture polish keeps boots supple, not tried it. Would i buy another pair? Yes.

baldilocks Posted December 24, 2006 Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 had one pair, had worn through to my socks where the boot rubs on the frame in 3 trials ! may be my style but rubbish for the money, I get a year out of most brands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cota kid Posted December 24, 2006 Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 They are a decent enough boot but are no where near the quality of Gaerne. However if you can get them a lot cheaper than Garene then their worth buying. I.e. About Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amiller Posted December 24, 2006 Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 On my third pair. They last at least 2 seasons very well. Would not consider buying any other boot. Aaron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stone just after the 05 SSDT to replace my AStars, they've lasted much better at about half the price. I agree they're comfy though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrybaines Posted December 25, 2006 Report Share Posted December 25, 2006 My stone 2`s although less than a year old have been abused even went mouldy the other day (must remember they need too be cleaned!) But now i`ve found the porper nikwax in a tin and it`s so incredibly cheap off ebay they look like new minus the few scuffs. They are comfy as a pair of slippers and i`ve walked through ankle deep puddles sloshing the water round without my inner boots in and the water is scared of em so impressed Moral of my post.............. I`m sure if you try a boot on that is a good fit and confortable a good bit of cleaning and care with a DECENT ( I had a crap waterproofer before) wax you`re boots will be great Never heard of any trials boots falling apart due too quality issues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie_lejeune Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 i agree the diadora boots are very comfortable but my soles are about done after 1 year. The worst boots i ever had were NovoGar what a pile of *****, they lasted about 6 mths. am going to try alpine stars next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boofont Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 Never heard of any trials boots falling apart due too quality issues Astars, both pairs! Sent the first pair of as the welt had come away, they got repaired FOC so happy with that. Second pair (which are slightly different) have just done the same!

jonno Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 I was going to buy a pair of the alpine stars, but when i went to the shop (wont name names but its a big, very well known shop) i was told to stay well clear, and that its mostly the younger lads that buy them because they want to wear the same boots as lampkin. but they said the amount they get back due to various problems is stupid. so i bought some Hebo ones instead. After talking to the guys at said shop id never buy a pair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
