i don't know if you can get them on the tech 6, i know the tech 3's have a boot designed a little bit different, the soles seems a little more agressive for better traction and they have a little metal plate on the toe tip.

ive never had tech 3's,

but my thor quadrant boots had the more "aggressive" pattern.

i now ride with tech 7's and i like them a lot better than the quadrants. i slipped around a little bit on stock foot pegs, but my nerf bars basically have spikes for pegs so i dont slip at all now.


if you want a little more bite on your pegs id get the atv boot. but personally the smooth dirtbike tread is fine for me.
f*ck the system? i didnt even know there was a system!

I was going to buy the Tech 3's but my friend who owns his own bike shop has been getting a lot of the Tech 3's back after people wear it once.  The stitching is coming apart along the seams.  Also the sole is breaking, not enough flex I guess.  So I ended up getting the Thor Quadrant ATV boots.  Took about 2 hours to break in but they are very comfortable and grip the pegs very well.
