    That looks a bit bad - was it a long slide ? (how fast ~). Did it wear through the inner boot ?
    I have the same boots - the are very comfortable but on the down-side, don't seem as tight fitting as other brands such as Sidi

    :eek: in your opinion are these boots worth the retail price? Was this crash an exception that would of worn through any boot in your opinion?

    it was a crash on track,wasn't overly quick (60-70?) foot got caught under bike for a bit of the slide hence the damage,burnt a hole in my foot where it went through.i'm convinced if i had my daytonas on,it wouldn't have happened due to being Roo leather,not the faux pvc shit.they are a great boot,fit,comfort wise,but this does show it's short falls,but tbh,the vast majority of boots would have done the same.in fact i have a vid of the crash....will get the link
