Did you call a shop?
Any dealer who deals with Crown Kiwi, the NZ Alpinestar importer, can get tech3 soles.
Provided they are in stock, they are $69.90 http://www.crownkiwi.co.nz/crownkiwi/catalogue/?detail&ItemID=5794&SZIDX=55&CCODE=AS-25SUT3-11&QOH=1&CATID=41&CLN=1&PAGE=2

Crown Kiwi also have the gear to replace the soles, and they will do it for you. Not 100% sure on the price but I think around $100 for new soles fitted sounds familiar.

Bloody Alpinestar Tech 3s... mine annoy the crap out of me. I only bought them because when I went to buy some new boots (was looking at getting some Tech 10s) the guy in the shop showed me some Tech 3s they had for a silly price because they had a small mark on the toes... couldn't resist a bargain, so bought them with the idea that I'd get the 10s when they wore out. That was 3 years ago and the soles are only just starting to show wear. The rest of the boots are sweet. And now you tell me I can easily replace the soles. I'll never get those bloody Tech 10s will I?

Love mine too....except the bloody buckles! :nono:

Is there a trick to getting them off?? Sometimes it takes two of us to unclip them (actually have to leave the bottom two just popped open but not unclipped).

Clean them up really nice, chuck em on trademe, put monies towards shiny tech 10s.


Crossfires are better though...

After each ride, give them a good clean with either a dish brush or shoe polish brush, then a quick squirt of silicone spray you can get from Supercheap, Repco or similar.

You actually clean them? :gob:




I just replace the electrical tape that holds the buckles closed each ride... I can safely say that Axos' don't wear that well!

No, I just read that on another forum.
