If you can stretch a teeny bit more there are some TCX available from the same place:

http://www.ghostbikes.com/products/2018-tcx-s-race-motorcycle-boots.html

In a selection of neg colours though, they are OOS of black.

Or the Competizone S at Moore Speed Racing:

http://www.moorespeedracing.co.uk/tcx-sidi-richa-motorbike-boots/tcx-competizone-s-racing-motorcycle-boot.html

with a few quid off for the forum discount

Big fan of TCX stuff, so I may be a bit biased.

i thought £94 was reasonable seeing as some of the top brands can be £200 or more

thanks for the reply macie but my limit is £100 some good quality boots there though

[fr499y 0]

for £100 im sure you will find a nice pair of boots

[2wheels 0]

Personally I'd never go wk tcx again. I have some oxtar. (they rebranded a while back) they were old stock so I go em for £60 however 8 months on with little use the toe slider has come off on one side and both the ankle protectors are now poking through the questionable material on the sides. I had some lidl specials for 3 years before that with no issues. Gave em to a mate who had a 125 I want em back now

Buying online is always a bit hit and miss for clothing, cuz they may look nice or well bolted together, but they may fall apart or just not fit right. Out of those 2, the RSTs look better.

Ghostbikes do some sporty looking Blytz boots for 59 quid.
Sportsbikeshop do some Spada ST1s for £99.

Any of these any good? Dunno if you're near a J&S http://www.jsaccessories.co.uk/shop/boots/sports.html?dir=asc&order=price

[aceuggy 0]

Would you buy used? I've been keeping half an eye out for some new boots as well. Alpinestars often come up on Evilbay at decent prices. Might be worth a lookee. Only thing that puts me off is the sizing. You can't try before you buy!

[dirtydog 0]

been in j&s today and tried these on but came home and ordered on line as they were £99.00 in the store lol http://www.jsaccessories.co.uk/shop/boots/sports/seb094-fury-sport-boot-black-silver.html only walked round the shop in them they were comfy enough but sturdy also Frank Thomas is a well known brand so it made sense to buy them

[BanditMike 0]

Look nice mate . I'd consider it, but they only go up to a 10 and I need an 11. F big feet

Still, you know what they say about me with big feet?

Exactly, need big socks

[aceuggy 0]

Yeah, looks good especially in the black. I'm not a lover of coloured boots myself.

I hear what you're saying, but may not be her fault. If she's sent the right size, which the receipt seems to say she did, its the monkeys they've got in packing/despatch that can't read have created the problem . Give the company a chance to rectify before going at it, it's only fair. If they can't, or won't, rectify then
