dougefresh Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 Well, shoot. If you guys vouch for 'em, that's good enough for me. Just ordered a pair this morning. Definitely be a step up from the CaBoots, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juggernaut Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 These Boots are KILLER! Highly Recommended ordered on Tuesday from CA had them in SC by Friday. I have a wide foot and probably could have dropped down to a 9 I ordered a 10 but I can add some insoles to even everything out. ROCK ON!

Rolf[501st] Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Okay boys, mine arrived today--so fast there was smoke coming off the box. Outstanding service from these guys...wow.Here is the Caboots comparison. Both of these boots are brand spanking new size 10s. Overall I'd score these new boots a solid 9.5 out of 10. They are excellent. The color is a nice warm white, the texture is wonderfully matte, not glossy. They appear to be extremely well-made. The Caboots might be slightly wider but it is almost negligible--and I have a wider foot. I might change my mind after trooping in them for a few hours--we shall see--but initial trial feels good. I should say I had a thicker sock on too, so it will be even better with a thin sock. Bottom line: the width is not noticeably different imho than the Caboot. And one of the best things... THE NEW BOOTS DON'T SMELL LIKE THERE IS A DEAD BODY ROTTING IN THE BOTTOM! YAY!!!!!!! Sweet Jesus I havent trooped in a few months and I forgot that nasty glue smell on the Caboots. Have a look at the pics. The TK boots have the black pull loops, the Caboots have the white pull loops. WOW!!! Thanks for the compare shots, i can´t wait for mine I have order two pairs US size 11, i normal are a sneakers size 10,5. But trooper boots are more pointy then sneakers, so 11 all ways fit me perfect. I can see they got to the CA post office the 7 days ago, and went out to Denmark 3 days ago. So i guess i will have them soon too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThayNerd[TK] Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 I trooped in mine twice yesterday and they are some much nicer than caboots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laspector[TK] Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 I've emailed twice now and still can't get a reply. troopersupplies@hotmail.com is the right place to send an email isn't it? I asked about size 9s, gave my address, request for total price including shipping, and asked for a paypal address. Am I doing something wrong?

You were trying to contact them over a weekend too, so give them a little time now that it's a weekday to get ahold of you. and as of 10/10/09 the price including shipping to the US was $61 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkrestonva[TK] Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Can this topic be pinned? At some point soon I'll be in a position to upgrade to a more accurate kit, and I'll want the boots to go with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperTrooper Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Maybe someday he'll carry 13s so I can get a pair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hogan 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.

SoCalTrooper Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 I see a lot of Trooper have gotten their boots, so is it possible to get some pics of them wearing their new footwear with armor? I'd like to see what they look like with shin armor over the tops of the boot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
