hi evry1
been lookin at some MX bootz lately, got some problems with sizing
the boots that fit me in the foot, are a bit wide in the calf and go all the way up to my knee
(im size 11 mens in normal shoe and im guessing im just under 6foot tall)
any info on what to get??
thx, q0d  |

| do you wear knee braces/gaurds they fill the gap and give protection while your at it |

Yeah I have the same problem. MX boots are narrow and to get a good fit I had to go up a size which means they are too long and too high?
HHMMPPPHH !! 
I wanted to speak to someone who has been racing for a while, in the hope they would have worn a few pairs of boots. I spoke to Paul Smith at this years Australasian Rally and asked him his opinion.
Gaerne was his answer. Bloody typical! The most expensive!
The only thing I can suggest is keep looking and try heaps of different brands until you find the right ones. I didn't, and I'm spewing.
