bluehickey Posted May 7, 2009 Report Posted May 7, 2009 (edited) Since CaBoots is currently not making any smaller size boots (I am a size 9) I was curious to know if anyone has had any experience with these type of boots found on ebay: Ebay boots If anyone can tell me about the quality, or comfort etc, that would be helpful.

tk9122 Posted May 7, 2009 Report Posted May 7, 2009 this person works for someone that uses child labor to make these plus it a big rip off he will take your money and run so don't use this guy Quote
BFA Posted May 7, 2009 Report Posted May 7, 2009 Wouldn't deal with Starfortress if they were the last retailer on earth. Avoid like the plague !! Quote
Smitty Posted May 7, 2009 Report Posted May 7, 2009 Junk Products, junk owner, junk period. Steer clear of Star Fortress! Plus he's child pornography fugitive from the states. He and his products are total garbage. Quote
ThayNerd[TK] Posted May 7, 2009 Report Posted May 7, 2009 Stay away from Star Fortress. Do a search on him and you'll see why. Quote
bluehickey Posted May 7, 2009 Author Report Posted May 7, 2009 Wow, glad I asked. Thanks for the heads up, I will stay away like the plague! Quote
Morphine Posted May 7, 2009 Report Posted May 7, 2009 (edited) ---------- info related to him. Edited January 15, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link not working removed Quote
cojake Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 He has the same reputation on TDH and other forms. Crummy service/recasted products and a pedophile to boot. Quote
TK_Margarita Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 Just went on his Star Fortress site- the stuff is SOOOOO expensive. Like $420 for a Sandtrooper backpack? Plus $125 to ship? Outrageous! The fast that it is way over priced, but then to find out he cut and ran from charges of being a pedophile? Stay clear! Quote
bluehickey Posted May 12, 2009 Author Report Posted May 12, 2009 (edited) OK, how about these boots on ebay, does anyone know about the quality and/or comfort of these? I'll admit, that the soles don't look nearly as comfortable as the caboots version. Edited January 15, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link not working removed Quote

bluehickey Posted May 12, 2009 Author Report Posted May 12, 2009 Those are commonly know as Elvis or Mariachi boots, and would not be acceptable. Yeah, they don't look that great either. I guess I'm just worried about not being able to get some decent boots in my size when the time comes (size 9-10). I guess I could always buy some jodphur boots and put some white polish on them, but they won't look nearly as good and will need constant upkeep, which doesn't seem any fun. Quote
ThayNerd[TK] Posted May 12, 2009 Report Posted May 12, 2009 I just looked at caboots site and they have size 10 available. Quote
bluehickey Posted May 13, 2009 Author Report Posted May 13, 2009 I just looked at caboots site and they have size 10 available. They are available in size 10, that's good. I really wear a size 9, but perhaps with my shoe inserts in as well, I could fill out a size 10 better. Quote

I also wear thicker socks when trooping so that might help a little too. Quote
