hangten247 Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 I cant remember what model those were, but I think it was back in the day when they made only 2 models. Looking at the shape of the top of the cuff, as well as the extra support strap, I'd say that is the "comp"? model, not the "freestyle"? model. The comp used a ski boot inner bladder/liner, it actually gave decent support when used with one of their many incarnations of the 3 buckle bindings. I used to carve at one time with such a beast. I actually had to MAKE my own firat pair, Burton was always sold out of boots. I took a Sorel type boot, put a leather Caber "comp" skiboot liner in them, and actually punched out and installed my own eyelets to have a laceable inner boot. Oh, those were the days!This boot has potential, drop a skiboot liner that fits in the outer shell/cuff,, find out the mondo size and recycle them to someone who prefers a 3 buckle soft binding!

D-Sub Posted March 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 hangten, thanks for the response but theyre not comps. heck, theyre not even burton! I suspect theyre just a knockoff from that time? theres no label other than a "G" on the sole. Gnu? no idea. moonboots! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hangten247 Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 I thought that red symbol was a red "B". Seems like all softies back then looked pretty much the same, I think the mold for the rubber lower is identical. I think I may have sold this brand back in the day, that funky support strap is makin'my mind work overtime at the momentbecause it looks so familiar.

D-Sub Posted March 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 yeah...theyre certainly retro, certainly old, but they WOULD work for someone, with liners, who had NO money and wanted to ride. thats the only reason I posted em. Guess Ill just give em to the thrift store anyone got liners I could put in em to make them usable? oh..the logo on the side is a G too...?

marz Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 G is for Grunge! It was a cheaper off brand we carried in our store. They beg, borrowed or stole the molds/lasts, or just had Dalbello make 'em in China, when Burton moved on to the Loafer era boots. Aaaahhh!! so long ago, so far away :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Sub Posted March 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Grunge it is. guess nobody knows any ghetto kids that want to go boardin off to the thrift shop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
