Re: Best boots within £90 budget?

my mate who's serving uses it all the time , he didnt like the osprey as it wasnt 'hi speed' enough haha

Oh, I'm not saying it isn't used by forces, but I imagine (this is my opinion) that far more airsofters use it than serving personnel.

Sorry mods, don't want to derail the thread.

Check 'bay as you can get quite a lot of boots for about half price.

I have some Miendl Desert Fox ones coming, £56 shipped and new anywhere up to £120.

Magnums are awesome too, especially for the price.

Magnum Spider 8.1 as said before, they come in black or the rarer tan. Awesome boots, never spent a better £70... Only thing is they need to be treated everyso often to remain waterproof, due to the ventilation panels along the side. Don't jump in puddles though and they are alright untreated.

I got Magnum Stealth 8.0 boots for Christmas, they're pretty freaking awesome! They're comfortable as you like, lightweight, take practically no breaking-in, are excellent value for money, and they have a zip, making it much quicker to take them off and put them back on.

I'll go with magnums, but really you need to get to a shop and see what works for you personally.

Right, in my opinion boots are one of the most important bits of kit. I invested in Lowa Mountain GTX Goretex Boots 2 years ago and I have never looked back.

Yeah they are more expensive, but mine have been thrown around skirmish after skirmish and hiking sites, they offer phenomenal support for my ankles, which is very important, and are for me, incredibly comfy, and warm !

Lowa's all the way

converse stealth 8" with shockabsorbant sole they last 2 years of heavy use. you need to treat them to make them waterproof but the main advantage is they angle your foot forward wich helps with sprinting.

Magnum everytime - be prepares to try them on though as the fit is critical and they come in half sizes where most others don't.
Worn Elite II 8" CT for years and just gone over to the new Spider Recon 8" which at £100 are over your budget but Christ they smash anything else I've ever worn.
Had Oakleys as testers before they were ever available and they died within 2 months of daily use where my CT's have been going for over 5yrs and still are wp and comfortable.
