    Boots ALpines or fox

    Hi, i need a pair of riding boots. I can get a pair off ebay for a decent price, or i can get them off motosport. Is there anywhere better? And what boots should i get. My limit is around 200. I was thinking tech6, or fox forma. Anything else i should consider. Thanks let me know what you guys use.

    Def Alpinestars I have the Vectors & LOVE EM my hubby has the FOX trackers & the bottom 2 buckels came completly OFF rivets & all sucks when you haven't had them that long, but too long to take back

    I use MSR's (world tours I think) and I've been using them for almost 1 1/2 years with no problems. I got them for like 140 off ebay. They have an Italian flag on the back of the boot.

    Tech 6 are the best that I've found.

    If you are comparing Fox and Alpinestars boots, there is not even any doubt that Alpinestars are superior.

    Boots is one of them things you don't want to cheap out on. If you get an el cheapo set of boots, they will prematurely wear our and they feel like crap. Get yourself a decent set of Alpinestars and you won't look back.

    I run the Tech 4's and am thoroughly convinced about Alpinestars quality.
