    Alright, lads?

    Does anyone know where you can find some plain, old school leather boxing boots? The type Tyson wore, I suppose. I'd also be interested in some Pony ones, but I don't know where to find either. I'd prefer to buy from a British website but, if they are hard to find, any links will do.

    Cheers :good

    What? The UK has the best selection of boxing boots! Lonsdale has a pretty good plain boot. I like Green Hill's selection too. If you can't find anything and don't mind going a bit "mainstream" you can always go with the Dan Gable old school wrestling boot, but it doesn't have the elevated heel of a Boxing boot.

    Good luck man. I am stuck with the same dilemma, but... America's selection of Boxing boots is HORRIBLE. At least you have hope.
