Trials Boots
Perhaps this has been covered before. Has anyone used Trials boots instead of conventional MX boots? My old Alpinestars will need to be replaced soon, I would like to get something that provides more traction when pushing/ walking. I just don't want something with an aggressive lug sole that tries to "grab" every clump of dirt. Has anyone modified a sole to get more foot traction and maintain the boot's ability to "skim over" the dirt, sticks, rocks, etc? Thanks, Jim.

The Sidis also have an optional replacement sole that is more grippy. The boots graham Jarvis used to use (w2??) were quite trialsy

I use the Sidi discovery boots. Very comfortable and h2o proof. Good for walking around even.

Trials boots are 10 times more confortable than any MX/Enduro because they allow you move the ankle. So, you can walk, use rear brake and move like usual.
The sole is made with same rubber that they made the tyres. Veeery grippy. The problem is the (ankle) protection....
