bluehickey Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 There is another thread around here somewhere on the same topic and someone actually called up caboots and asked about the sizing issue and they said they will have the smaller sizes available again later this summer.

TK-Recruit Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 I have some questions about these boots. Are they very durable? Can you get EI Status with them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HPDblues[TK] Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 CA Boots are a very good choice IMHO. I've got a pair for my TK and a pair for my TD... And when I heard they were no longer going to manufacture these bad boys, I went ahead and purchased two more pairs for insurance. T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yatia Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 My next door neighbour popped her head through the open front door (let some breeze in!) yesterday afternoon and said "this came for you earlier" as she produced a CABoots box. Is it wrong that I like the smell??? Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluehickey Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Hey, I just got mine today and whew do they smell! I could smell something odd before I even opened the box that was taped shut! I don't know if I'll ever get used to that smell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VacTrooper Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 But Shiv....I LIKE the smell! Hey, don't worry about it! I kinda dig the smell too. My family thinks I'm insane, though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laspector[TK] Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Man, I could REALLY use another pair of size 9's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluehickey Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Man, I could REALLY use another pair of size 9's. I am a size 9, but ordered a size 10 because someone told me that the boots run small. I got them today and tried them on and they are a little roomy, but I usually wear shoe inserts, so it should end up taking the rest of the room.

rapstertee Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 Good news bout the TK boots. But why are their Jack Sparrow boots so outrageoudly expensive??? Anyone else doing accepted (clearable) JS boots? (sorry if it's off-topic) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
synaptyx Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 I just bought a pair of gell insoles for my caboots. They take up the extra room and make standing around all day much comfier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-7980 Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 I'd do that, but I don't want to look disproportionate while trooping. Big foot trooper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Voorhees[501st] Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Hmmm...i may have a proposal for one of you. I happen to have a pair of size 9 caboots. Ive trooped in them about 10 times total. Im looking to get a pair of size 10's as i want to put inner lifts in them and the size 9 becomes tight. Anyone willing to make a swap? oh, and i kinda like the smell too haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-7980 Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 I'd be willing to. PM me with pics and let's see if we can get something arranged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juggernaut Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 awesome. ill get ya pics tomorrow Sorry for the late inquiry but do you have the Caboots in Size 9 still?

TK bondservnt[501st] Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 Ah... the wonderful smell of CA boots reminds me of napalm in the morning... you should smell 10 troopers in a small room... it's like being at the CA boot factory. I wonder if CA boots people come home and just smother themselves in burgers and onions just to get the smell off! heheh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Finger Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Any one have a size 8 for sale with in the states? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxRadio Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 ... oh, and i kinda like the smell too haha Just got my TK CABoots this morning. I've gotta say I like the smell. The smell is like what I would expect a droid repair shop or armor plant to smell like - petroleum, vaguely industrial, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naatsirhc[TK] Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 I received my Caboots last week. I don't think the smell is too bad. Kinda reminds me of stepping into an auto parts store. They came shipped in the actual shoebox and with the lid on you can't smell them til you remove it. Just thought I would chime in!

Juggernaut Posted September 6, 2009 Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 Just seeking a little advice. If you replace the soles with Black Dr. Martens soles and or a Medium to Thick Hiking Boot Sole I was wondering if these would pass? Just curious. Thanks Dr. Martens Marceaux Patrick-Chelsea Boot http://www.onlineshoes.com/mens-dr-martens...ooth-p_id126019 http://cabotresole.com/ ROCK ON!

Thanks Dr. Martens Marceaux Patrick-Chelsea Boot --------- ROCK ON! Wow, those shoes are unbelievably cool! Too bad the soles aren't black. My personal opinion would be that putting different soles on them would kind of negate the whole point of Dr. Martens. Their whole thing is that their soles are so durable and comfortable (although really heavy to wear). They already cost over $100, plus the cost of getting them re-soled. Might just be easier to go the opposite boots and get some cheaper Chelsea/Jodpur boots that are brown or black and already come with the black soles and just dye them white. Much cheaper and more authentic, since that is how it was done in the movies. ---------- There would be advantages of not having to touch up the paint job if you did re-sole the Dr. Marten's though and that would be nice to not have to worry about. All in all, I'd say that they would be perfectly fine if they had black soles.
