Looks like it will tear up your turf in a hurry

I want a pair. It takes about 5 minutes to get my neoprene socks and wrestling shoes on or off. These look much faster.

those soles look pretty aggressive. I wonder if the front buckle would bother you when using footholds/straps? I do like the easy in/out.

A friend of mine wore them adn they tore up his ankles. Wore the skin away after a day or wearing them. They are well built and very nice. Maybe they just wern't broken in yet, but it looked a bit painfull. I would think you could wear a normal sweat sock in them to help avoid blisters though!

Ya, i hear ya, definately faster, but that velcro can wear out and start to come loose all the time...
Ill stick to my Ebay Asics teenager specials! 90 bucks is alot for a pair of those. I can get 3-4 pair of "like new"Asics wrestling shoes off ebay for that price.
I have had a pair for about a month now and the seem to be holding up real well, but the do run big on the size chart I wear a 10 1/2 and I orderd a 11 and they are too big. I ended up puting in my slipper neoprene booty's in and they work perfect. They have a ton of traction and feel great in my foot holds but their straps are waaay to long.

I picked up a pair at the Rochester, NY races a few months ago. and Love em.
They were designed to be worn with a neoprene booty so if you run barefoot run one size down. I have a pair of the first generation.
the second had a few improvements.
No damage to the turf yet. and they grip way better than wrestling shoes on wet turf. the zipper / velcro is instant on/off even when wet.
Yes at first they tore up my ankles a bit. but they have room for socks . after wearing them i wont go back to my wrestling shoes.. such a pita with laces & wet leather. THese keep the sand out much better. have drainage mesh so your snot sloshing around on land. and dont STINK like wet leather.
I ended up cutting the velcro straps shorter to my liking for faster/on/off.
and they also look silly walking on the beach. .like any tall black boot with shorts..
if you can spot them. you get a prize.
Great ankle support and toe protection. Just run wide for thicker socks for cold water. which is aproaching fast.
Id recommend them +1!

I can't see them very well. Maybe you can post some more pics of you wearing them at the photo shoot.

I bought a pair at the Colonial beach races, much better then my slippery's (new design ones). Only things that I feel need improvement/changes are the velcro is super long and could be shortened and include neo socks with them. There isnt any padding in the boots so its gonna be a crappy ride in them.
