Motocross Boots Need Help Choosing?

Well, right now i have the 09 thor quadrants and they are getting pretty small and just arent really cutting it. They are STILL stiff and buckles wont stay shut. So i was looking at boots and i want to spend around $300 (cheaper the better :D ). I was looking at the Gaerne Fastback Boots Alpinestars Tech 3's or 7's and the Sidi Chargers. Has anyone owned any of these boots and how did they work out? Here are the links to these boots.

The Alpinestars Tech 3's are very similar to the most expensive and best MX boot on the market which is the Alpinestar Tech10 but for a lot less money The Tech 3 is a great boot and it is what I wear. I have a webpage that has alot of info about safety and gear, check it out. The link is belowMotocross Boots Need Help Choosing?
i would go with the tech three's. I bought mine from a motocross store that was going out of business so i got them dirt cheap but they are worth the money at full cost. I have had them for almost a year now, they still look great, havent had a buckle break. They broke in nice after 5 or six times riding in them, were your boots when your working on your bike, they break in faster. You could buy the more expensive boots but your not really getting anything more for your money, I know some buddies that still have there alpinestars that there dads gave them as hand me downs, and they still work.Motocross Boots Need Help Choosing?
Alpinestars are the way to go. Get the 7's if you can, the 3's are fine boots also.
