Sidi gore tex boots

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Got a pair of size 12 sidi gore tex boots I don't use as they are too friggin small   . I've woren them three times and been in serious pain, heard they are a tight fitting boot so thought they may 'stretch' a bit, but no not to be  . Apparently with sidi you get the size bigger, but didn't realise that at the time. Any size 11 should be good to go. 

Been sitting in the side board for the the last 10/12 months, the toes have scuffs but all in all very good condition. Won't say new as have woren them 3 times, each time being a 35 mile round trip to work.

Hopefully that works, I'm sh#t at getting links to work and posting pictures from this friggin iPhone is a nightmare. Happy to text pictures, they cost me £220 looking for £150 ono 

Cheers
Glynn

	I did I tried 10's on when I was buying new leathers and as it was an interest free scheme just said " throw them in the bag as well" Tried it all on at home and realised the boots were a bit tight so went back the next day and changed them for 11's All good except I didn't actually need them so continued using my very comfy Oxtar boots until they finally fell apart. Come to use the new boots and they are too tight several years later Gave up and bought some Daytona's when on holiday as the £/€ echange rate at the time was really good. Now keep tripping over these Arlen Ness in the bedroom flaunting their attached labels and price tags just to rub salt into the wound.
