brulafu Posted January 30, 2009 Report Posted January 30, 2009 Just received my new Caboots Trooper Boots. They look nice. I ordered a US 12 (I'm a uk 11) and they are just a tad big, but nothing an inner sole and thick sport socks will sort out... oh and yeah they stink....but i can live with that !! Quote
Daric LaRone[501st] Posted January 30, 2009 Report Posted January 30, 2009 Bruce, Got mine last week... they look great IMHO, and more comfortable than I imagined. I plan to make some attempts at "deodorizing" these boots and will post my successes and/or failures... If anyone is interested. I don't mind the smell myself to be honest though. Quote
4505 Marcel Posted January 30, 2009 Report Posted January 30, 2009 Just leave them in the shed for a couple of weeks and the smell will reduce alot mate on there own <_< Quote
Smitty Posted January 30, 2009 Report Posted January 30, 2009 Those sure are shiney! I like em! Quote
brulafu Posted January 30, 2009 Author Report Posted January 30, 2009 I'm not that long home from work and stuck them on....they are more comfortable than I expected too.....Right...time to crack on with the rest of the armour ! Quote
synaptyx Posted January 30, 2009 Report Posted January 30, 2009 I kind of got used to and like the smell now. Quote
ThayNerd[TK] Posted January 30, 2009 Report Posted January 30, 2009 LOL The smell will go away in time. Just leave them in the garage a few days and the smell will go away. Quote
Daric LaRone[501st] Posted January 30, 2009 Report Posted January 30, 2009 Ah ha! Thanks Thayne... I was just about to ask Marcel if the UK "shed" was analogous to our states-side "garage". I'm so not the worldly trooper. Right! Quote
Smitty Posted January 30, 2009 Report Posted January 30, 2009 Fill em full of sardines and let them sit for a week. They will never smell like glue again....I promise LoL Quote
Òrlendr Posted January 31, 2009 Report Posted January 31, 2009 There's nothing like taking a good sniff of my caboots after a troop. Quote
