hrmad Posted December 15, 2015 Report Share Posted December 15, 2015 Hi, Has anyone tried the Stylmartin impact evo trials boot? I've pretty much trashed my alpinestars, the sole has come away from the boot. I'm thinking about getting a pair of oiled Gaernes next, but wanted to ask if anyone has tried the stylmartin ones? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulmac Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 Hey Mate - I wore oiled Gaernes for a number of years - probably one of the most comfy boots I've ever worn but... they are a bit shorter then most and I coped a number of peg wacks between the top of the boot and knee. Probably my 'riding style but worth noting'. cheers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrmad Posted December 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 Thanks Paulmac, I wear knee guards that cover that boot to knee area, they have helped prevent quite a few bruises and have saved a knee when I landed on a tree trunk. They have also helped with whacking myself on the pegs. I don't want another pair of alpinestars, I want something that is easy to apply dubbing to and look after.

tricky dicky Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 The brown Stylmartin's are very good, really comfy from day one and they have a better sole than the Alpinestars 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you had a pair of gaernes? How would they compare to the stylmartins? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrmad Posted December 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 Gone with the stylmartins, they look like they offer a bit more protection. I tend to catch my feet a lot, we'll see how they go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_t Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 They seem to do well for Emma Bristow . Let us know how they work out... My Hebo boots will need replacing one of these days and I do like the look of the Stylemartin. The new Hebo boots with the fancy tensioner might be worth a look at as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tricky dicky Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 I've had Gaerne's for many years and recently some Alpinestars and they seem to be just as good. Very comfy from day one and keep their shape well after being washed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
