i got a pair of icon field armor boots and i wore them for the first time tonight......dayuuum those things are stiff as hell. i have big time problems trying to shift through the gears with these boots on.......i cant get the end of my foot under the shifter without taking my entire foot off the peg and angling it down and wedging it under the shifter.....the boot doesnt bend at all and i cant get the toes under the shifter while the heel is on the peg.
another thing i dont like is that i cant feel the shifter through my boot....so when i upshift, i dont know if it actually shifted or not......im use to that clicking feel when upshifting in my regular shoes.
just wondering if anyone else has the boots and if they'll wear in over time or not......the toe part of the boot is like 2.5 in tall from sole to top and i just cant get it to go under the shifter while my heel is on the peg becuase it wont bend down for crap.
