I have 2 pairs of 2021 10's...first I bought black/white. Sole was gone in about 12 hours, sent it to get a Sidi sole put on.

I bought a pair of LE before I shipped the original ones off so I wasn't without boots. Since then I've put about 5 hours on the LE boots and they're already shredding the sole.

I now just use the black/white for practice and the LE's are for races only. Pretty soon I'll need to send the LE's off to get Sidi soles.

Then after that they will release '22 colors, I'll see some I like, fork over another $650 and repeat the process all over again Laughing
Who does the sidi resole?

www.factoryresole.com is who did them. Turn around time was just a few days, very fair price. They did a damn good job and they are holding up great after 25 hours.

Curious, why isn't anyone talking about the Tech 7s?
Cheaper, not as bulky, no booty, lighter, more flexible, and more comfortable!

May be the best looking set of boots I’ve ever seen. And as long as you’re riding a Honda they will match any gear set! Wink

After watching how easy it is to replace that sole insert, I may well buy another pair.

What he said.

Also - if I buy a pair of Tech 10s on eBay, how can I be sure they are 2021?

This is truth... who cares about colors, when are they gonna fix durability???? The last two pairs of a stars I bought fell apart within a couple months... at that price point, inexcusable....
although they only lasted a couple months how much riding did you actually do? if you did 60 hours in 2 months and they fell apart its far more understanding than if you did 3 hours.

I've never understood the complaint on the soles not lasting for ever,
you can have grip and feel (tech 10) or hard long lasting rubber but no grip on your soles and you feet are always coming off the pegs losing control of your bike. its a no brainer I would have thought.
having raced in tech 10's SG12's and crossfire 3's i get the same/similar life out of all.

I have both soles and the older boots have ~70 hours and about 40 on the new ones and I’d say the new soles are holding up a bit better.

What skill level of a rider are you? Stock pegs?

C class and use aftermarket pegs but not crazy raptors or anything. I’d say I’m noticing that the guys like me that have no issue with wear on the soles seems to have more wear under the balls of our feet where the guys that ride on their arches seem to have more trouble.
