Get them in green and you will have the total transformer look perfected. The Green Goblin is now complete. All you need is this bikes front fairing:

They called.  I went.  Tried them on.  Now they're home with me, ready for some riding.  You can see them on the 12/28/11 post on the previous page.

How about that!  Made in Italy.  That makes me feel good.  The old boots did their job for ten years, with the last three being the hardest.  Tonight, out they went.  Sidi Cobra Rains, Euro size 46, stamped 11.5.  My foot is shy of 11, but bigger than 10.5.

But yours are the Vertigos, right?

Edit: Nevermind Bri.  I found a picture from last year with you in it.  You have ToTL Aplinestars.  For some reason I thought you had Sidis.

Yep, alpinestar boots but I shoulda got some with replaceable soles and I wouldn't have to buy new ones.

You can send them back to A* and they will replace the soles (and other parts) for a reasonable fee, so i hear.

OR you can just take them to a local cobbler if all they need is new soles.

I've got a pair of the SIDI Vortice Air boots. I think they're great, I've they're going into their 4th season and are still perfect. Plus, a lot of the breakable/grindable parts can be replaced. I got a pair of their dirt bike boots too and love them. I'm sold on SIDI.
