Boots question

Postby Colette » Sat Mar 25, 2006 2:28 pm

I've had my Alpine Stars Goretex boots for a few years and love them, no complaints, but when I get my next pair I'd like a bit higher heel (for obvious reasons ;)).

Are there any particular brands that have a good heel height, that people know of?

Thanks :)

Colette, Alpinestars have the biggest heel I've seen, but you can always get a bootmaker to alter whatever boots you choose :)

or your nearest B&D parlor, either works :) CFM boots are all the rage now.

Actually the more I think about it, a higher heel won't make much difference (unless they were platforms!), because it is the front part of my foot that I put down when stopping...but if that area was raised then it would make gear changes harder, wouldn't it?

I can't win... :cry:
