I was wondering if you all wear Mx style boots when you ride. If you do what type do you wear and what do you like about them?

I have the Fox Forma Pros.

Things I like-
Great ankle/lower leg protection. I've run over my leg a few times with these things and I'm sure they've prevented some serious injury.

Things I don't like-
-These things are HEAVY. Running 50' feels like a marathon
-Not much traction from the tread pattern. Not to great trying to push or pull a quad out of the mud.
-When I'm riding these are comforatble. As soon as I stop I can't wait to get them off my feet. They are like walking in ski boots but worse.

Alpinestars tech 4 mx sole. No problems with traction on the pegs since I doubled up the stock pegs.

Tech 8's cause they're free from a sponsor of our race team and they just feel great.
