Breaking in riding boots

[mills_racing]

how does everyone break there riding boots in? i just got a new pair with a race this weekend and is there a qucik way to help loosin them up?

Tech 10;s require alot of breakin, gaerne SG-10's require little to none, nethier do fox forma pros's- Tech 8's require some..What kind of boots are they? Just walk around in your house with them on for a few hours, or just ride.

oil them, and beat the crap out of them... bend them, and push on them for a long *** time while watching tv or something.

Either walk around in them in your house or outside (im not kidding) or just ride and break them in the old fasioned way.

boots should not feel like house shoes anyway, their stiff for a reason....PROTECTION. I wouldn't worry about trying to break them in.

When I first got my alpinestars I couldnt even shift with them. I had to wear them around the house for a day or two, and ride with them on a few times before I got comfortable with them. And they are only the tech 6's.

when i got my new pair of boots a few weeks ago i couldnt wati to go riding so i just took off on the 4hundy and wehn i was about 2 miles away put put pop.... ran outta gas (i had it on reserve like an idiot) so i pushed it down the gravel rode for over a mile and then walked the rest of the way to my house and walked got witha full 2 1/2 gallon gas can..............................needless to say i my boots are nice and comfy now......but that was a long and hard couple hours
