Jag[TK] Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Well my boots came in today. I ordered a size 11 and my set run just a tad large. They were built nice and solid. I walked around the house in them for about 30 minutes and they felt fine. However, my wife kept laughing at me and shaking her head. Rick As I struggle to paint my boots white, I shake my head at how I missed the release of these boots. Plus, my wife laughs at me each time I go and "play dress up" with my Star Wars friends. It's the same all over Our women just don't realize "the power of the Force" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billhag Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Mine arrived all safe and sound. Brilliant service and a great product We can finally say that we have a viable, if not better, alternative to CaBoots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAZZ Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 I e-mailed him yesterday afternoon. Got a response at around 5:30pm. Ordered them a few moments after. Order placed. Received UPS tracking # & a thank you notice. Very prompt & professional. Can't wait for them to arrive. I'll post a pic of the lower leg, so that everyone can see the match up (hopefully it does!).

Ciscotiger Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 I got my boots yesterday-exceptionally fast & professional service (one week turn around) and the boots are of good quality. I recommend these to anyone wanting a pair of stormtroopers boots at a reasonable price. They are less expensive than CAboots and comes flat white, soft leather compared to CABoots- gloss white and hard leather. I normally wear 10.5, I bought one size up since they only come in whole sizes. The size 11s were loose, but all I needed was added insoles to make them snug.

PGHtrooper21 Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 I don't think this has been mentioned here yet - I just got the approval from the seller to mention it to my friends - http://www.tkboots.com/ Got mine on order already. he said 95 pairs are in stock. I have purchased 2 separate orders from this seller in the past of different items. He is quick with communication and shipping. I received mine today. They look and are EXCELLENT!!!!! I wear between 8 - 8 1/2 U.S.. I ordered a 9 U.S.. I was not sure of an 8. They are made out of leather. I will order a 8 1/2 when they get them in stock. They run true to size. My 9 is a little big. But nothing an extra sock or thick socks can take care of. TKBoots are a blessing. For the cash you have to shell out for a pair of black books and take the time to sand and dye them and over time you have to touch them up from what I have heard. Get Tkboots! I have enclosed pictures below of mine to help show how good they are. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laspector[TK] Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 Could someone PM me and tell me exactly what you wrote in your e-mail to them. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. I can't understand why I am not getting a reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runewolf Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 Could someone PM me and tell me exactly what you wrote in your e-mail to them. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. I can't understand why I am not getting a reply. Maybe try another address mate. Do you have a gmail account or something you can try from? These guys are being slammed with emails from all of us, but somehow they are keeping it going and replying in a few days at the latest. I think you posted the right email address that you were sending to, if not here it is again: troopersupplies@hotmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laspector[TK] Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 Okay, I am a total idiot. I forwarded the emails I have been sending to my work computer to see if, in fact, they were going through. After careful scrutiny I realized I had left out the "I" in troopersupplies. DUUUHHH!!! I'll try it again as soon as I get home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure I can sell off the extra. ETA: PayPal payment has been sent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PGHtrooper21 Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 Tell me they don't look like NACHO LIBRE'S wrestling boots. Now looking at them.... They do! I am going to wear an extra par of socks to make them snug. Untill he gets have sizes in. This will do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandatrooper[TK] Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 Just got mine today, they are awesome! They're just a tiny bit "pointy" in my opinion, but there's good toe room. I ordered a pair of 8 and 9 since I'm actually an 8.5 I fit the size 8's well, the 9's a little bigger but that's OK, I will put padded insoles in them for long troops. **For those that have commented they fit snug on the sides, make sure to take out the thin layer of foam padding inside the boot, near the upper surface!** I think they put that there to help them keep their shape during shipping. I put on the 8's and said "Dang, these are so tight! Then I realized the foam came out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the same thing meself and realized when I put my hand in and pulled them out. Also it was thoughtful for them to put in a shoehorn in for putting them on.

Laspector[TK] Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 Okay, I finally got thru to the guy. He said he was running very low. I sent my paypal.

DAZZ Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 I just got my boots, and they look awesome. Yeah, they are a little slimmer than the CABoots, but WHAT A DEAL. These are great. I'm a size 9, so I ordered the 9's & the boots fit perfect. They are a pretty close match to the shins. Take a look at the pics. Great product & GREAT service! I highly recommend these. I live in So. Cal., and these ship out of Anaheim, so I got them in 2 days! ***** (5 stars) Darren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
