New Boots

Postby Phil » Mon Apr 03, 2006 2:54 pm

Well for the first time ever - I have a new pair of booties and they arnt alpinestars. :shock: :shock: and :shock: :shock:

I've looked at - and admired the Joe Rocket gear for a while. 8)

So I noticed that action have the speedmaster boots reduced from $399 to $171. my old GP tech boots have finally given up the ghost after nearly 9 years of service and the plastic was falling apart.

I'm gonna spend tonight walking around in them as they are stiff-as-fark at the moment.

Not many left if anyone else wants some - BTW they have rio jackets for $79 :shock: :shock: :shock:

This "Joe Rocket" chap you speak of... Does he distribute his wares, at the aforementioned prices, through the various retailers around Sydney, or through some form of "on-line" experience?

both i believe, moto 1 sell stuff on line, action does it "in person" so to speak.

Mat Mladin is the aussie importer of mr rockets wares and seeing as both shannon and josh are featuring in advertising campaigns for him i thought i'd jump on the band wagon :wink:

I'm pretty sure if you start with http://www.joerocket.com.au you will be heading in the right direction. :wink:

You bastard... I went in there last week to get a pair and they had no black ones in my size. It was such a good deal I had the guy ring the other shops, all to no avail...
They had plenty of blue or red ones... I guess you got blue ones..

I was going to die a pair of red ones black as they only had 1 pair in my size...
but I didn't.... :evil:

Do they still have the sets of Metzeler Sportech M1's for $350? I'm hoping the Canberra store does in a few weeks when I've got some cash :shock:
