Punkers

Anyone know of any "cons" against using a two piece suit rather than a dive skin? Dive skins do slightly worry me if I've got to take a restroom break on a long troop, so I'm curious what others have experienced. Thanks in advance.

What insoles do you guys recommend for these boots? What is most comfortable and provides the best feel when trooping (especially long troops) ?

I went ahead and ordered, hopefully they actually do have them in stock. I will report back my findings when / if these are indeed in stock and arrive.

This helps a lot actually, I appreciate your input. Great. Thank you! Two confirming the same = they run 1/2 size too big. This is a good point, assuming there are actually any troopers my shoe size looking for boots after I get mine lol.

Hi all, I know that there are probably several responses that have been made with regards to TKBoots sizes, but I want to be absolutely sure of what i'm buying before I place an order. I know that TKBoots is down to limited inventory before they find their new supplier (undetermined amount of time or quality of the product) and I don't want to have to wait for months and months before I find something. I found that there was availability with my size but I am concerned about the way that their sizing page is written and some of the things i've read here. If I am a half size shoe normally and based on their site the shoes run "a tiny, tiny bit long and just a little narrow" does this translate into basically the shoes are bigger than advertised so you really don't need to stress about getting that 1/2 size larger in order to fit in them as they claim? My concern is that due to their limited quantity / sizing available, I don't want to pay the $68 + $15 shipping = $83 price tag only to find out that they are way too small or way too big. Can anyone clarify for me and help ease my mind on this purchase? Thanks in advance

Ok good to know! Heat wise for summer vs winter use, is their any real difference in temperature? Or do you use the same Starter top and bottoms? Any difference in ease for "bio breaks" too? I'll have to look online and see if those are listed somewhere else because it doesn't appear Walmart has them online.

I thought this would go unsaid given the photos you posted... Ya, given these examples i'd holster in .001 second

Is this acceptable? It's on sale and i'm still in the market for one: ----------- Also, is it better to have a suit with two pieces for better access for "bio breaks" or is there even such a thing when it comes to troop gear?

Did these end up working out for you?

I presume there are no other 501st approved alternatives at this point? Also, I contacted TKBoots and I need to know if their size chart is accurate in saying along the lines that if you wear a size 9 1/2 - 10 in mens that you need a size 10 TKBoot ? Anybody able to confirm or deny these comments? lol
