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.

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!

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 :D

I trooped in mine twice yesterday and they are some much nicer than caboots.

Thanks for the pictures. In my book the TKboots look better than the CA.

 

Awesome! :duim:

Because they are - more screen accurate at the least.

I e-mailed the guy early Saturday morning. Haven't heard back from them yet.

 

I emailed them yesterday and they contact me today and got UPS info to me. They're quick once they start corresponding.

I've emailed twice now and still can't get a reply. [email protected] 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?

yes [email protected] is correct. 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

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.

Done, as long as he remains reliable, honest, and the quality is 501st acceptable.

Yup ok got it, (wow that got a lil odd :blink: ) Any way I went with size 9's even through I wear size 8.5's he said it would be better to go one size up so will see.

Let us know how yours fit. I'm in the same boat with an 8.5 too. I just sent him an e-mail.

I got mine today and couldn't be happier!!! They are excellent and the service is second to none!

Posted

I just e-mailed my interest to him. I'll keep you posted on if I get a contact!

 

...damn, I need new boots!

Well, I'm still waiting on a reply. sent three e-mails so far. What is going on???

 

that is really odd. any word yet??

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.

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.
