Goose's Kneepads... and boots?

Post by Rook3 »

Has anyone IDed Goose's Kneepads? Were they integrated to his pants, or
attached/strapped on after the fact?

Thanks!

Nobody has an idea about this part?

Okay, what about the boots? All the boots I've seen have the
correct shin armor, but not the correct sole. Does anyone know
if the shin armor was just transplanted on another style of boot,
or did this style of boot actually ship at some point with the
"Panama Sole" jungle boot style of rubber?

Goose's Boots, infor excerpt from Karol's madmaxcosumes.com website:
Goose wears 2nd-generation, six-strap Alpine Star Hi-Point boots. His boots may be unusual because they are missing the small metal pieces riveted to the bottom of the front flaps, as pictured above. The boots are no longer in production, but can still be found regularly on eBay.
Hope this is helpful.

Most Hi-point boots had the smooth MX soles but some were sold with the "off-road enduro" sole. Some had the Panama Sole and newer boots tread looks like a MX tire tread. So in short I dont belive the shin armor was transplanted just the boots are rare.

Thanks mate. I have a pair on the way, I just hope they fit. :?

I'm probably going to need to recolor/shine them as from the images they looked pretty
worn/dirty.
