I am needing to get a new pair of boots to put these new blades on and I haven't bought boots in 10+ years. What is a good brand or so (cheap) to get for hammerblades these days? Some have so much crap on the bottom it seems nearly impossible to get blades on them. ------------- |

I used my military issue all leather combat boots. Well
worn, comfortable, and lace up to mid-shin; twenty years old and still the best footwear I have ever had. ------------- "Example is the best precept." ~ Aesop |

Depending on your shoe size, you can get some jungle-style combat boots on the cheap at http://www.sportsmansguide.com - www.sportsmansguide.com . They also have some military surplus boots from around the world that are in good condition that tend to run a little cheaper as well. I, having rather large feet, have to get mine elsewhere, but was able to get them on there a couple of years ago and I think I spent about $25-30 for a pair with the canvas tops. Good luck finding what you are looking for. ------------- "He who makes a beast out of himself, gets rid of the pain of being a man." - Samuel Johnson (english poet) |

Walmart...Grizzlies I think they are called. True story, I stole Chad Gustin's boots out of his bag once in Texas and took a bunch of pictures of them, then replaced them all sneaky-like.* Snake Eyes doesn't have sh*t on Dunc Eyes. Cheap boots from Walmart have held up very well...

K guys thanks. Unfortunately I only have a size 9 foot, so finding boots won't be an issue. May look at walmart per Sir Sneakster's suggestion or at Army surplus. ------------- |

Bought mine at Target for 19.99 and they work great w. Brock blades. Scots are supposed to be cheap. Just get a stiff thick sole and use lots of thick wide washers. duncuonefunnymuffukahsheeeet.imadechadeverythingheis sohandsoffhe'smineIadoptedhimlastyearremember?  ------------- 51 , 72 and 15 at 50 |

Brian, do you have a Big 5 sports store in your area? That's where I found my Response Gear Tacticle black boots for $20.00. Nice thick soles and side zippers. They fit like a glove and are very comfortable with Brock blades. Big 5 has a large selection. Good luck. Beth ------------- You can overcome adversity! |
