Anybody elses boots squeek?
I've got some Oxtar race boots and have hardly worn them because they squeek when i am walking. Is there any way to stop it?
I got some silicon stuff with them too put on but that didn't work, it has the T.C.S thing on it which is what i think is squeeking but not sure.

heavy axle grease, or a bit of chain lube.......
The t.c.s bit holds the grease inside the ankle part if you put enough on, and lasts for about a week.
So i'd just get used to it n wear your squeak with pride!  |

ever thought about getting a cobbler to do the soles etc? my boss boots had a hole at the bottom so he got a cobbler to put on some durable rubber grip on the bottom. i'm not sure it would help you but maybe it could. ____________________ Hit the G spot.  |

I've never liked WD40, I use chain lube on mine. Looks a bit tatty if you use a wax though.
Quietens them for a week or 2, less if its raining. ____________________ Suzuki GSX-R750K4 ~ Mivv GP |
