How do I get my boots to stop squeaking?

I have a pair of SMX Plus's and when you walk they squeak pretty loud, at first it was funny but now it's just annoying Laughing

Squirt a bit of chain lube on the ankle pivot point under the plastic every few weeks, does the job for me.

It's your boots' way of telling you should be riding not walking around. Wink

I have the same problem with my TCX's. They only do it after they get wet for like 3-4 days and it eventually wears off but embarrasing when your in shops and applying for jobs and stuff Laughing

I've heard silicone spray works well Idea

Little bit of candle wax. Works a treat and lasts for ages.

My father used to say that if your shoes squeaked then you hadn't paid for them......
