Hey guys,

Just after a bit of advice on replacing my 661 Attack shoes which have just started to fall to bits after five years loyal service. Had a quick look at some shoes online and have singled out these two as potential buys. Any thoughts? What are buckles like on these days? I remember there being reliability issues with some models last time I researched buying a pair of shoes....

Anyway, any advice would be appreciated.

    I looked at the Spesh Comps but ended up buying the sport versions.i fIgured,no buckle,less to clog with mud and to go wrong and otherwise the construction and sole were much the same.

    They have been good so,far and superbly ,comfortable.

    I bought the Comp.

    Tried the sport, but found the buckle stopped any foot slip & supported the heal better.

    The thing that sold them was that the buckle & strap are easily replaceable - Oh& I got a darn good discount.
