dexter sst 6's for a half a season last year, and had no complaints at all about them, until i realized that the right toe was practically falling off. prior to the dexters, i wore linds for about 2 years and never had that problem. during my release, i slide my right toe across the approach. after tripping on them for about a month more, i decided to go with abs b/c of the REPLACEABLE toe cap. absolutely love them. no complaints whatsoever, comfortable, durable, breathable. love them.
