forget all my preaching about the basic elton boot, they look awesome!!

they dont do them in action man sizes!

I have been wearing a pair of these i paid 149.99 for about a week now- apparently i was the first to buy a pair. Had protector pros before, which were awesome, and drove miles to get another pair, only to find that they didnt actually have any after all, so he offered me the lights. Comfort wise they are as if you arent wearing them- v.light. They arent gore-rex lilned, but he said they had a special leather membrane and were still breathable and waterproof. Tuesday last week was foul, and at the end of the day i had pretty damp feet to say the least. I rang him back at the shop to question him about it, and he reassured me again about the membrane etc,and he asked me was i sure that my feet werent just very sweaty. I reminded him that if they were breathable... but he said he would ring haix and call me back. No call as yet, and this thread reminds me to call him! Mixed reactions so far then- love the comfort, miss the pro's in which i dont think i ever had wet feet.

We were laughing at the big Haix logo on the side in Carrs last week, they look good apart from that, nice soft inner lining, almost like calf skin.

they do look pretty cool
