RST S1 Boots broke after an hour!

Rst s1 leather boots review.
I got these boots to match my rst two pieces leathers, I was really happy with them until I took them on the first ride.
After about an hour the slider had come loose from the bolt and when trying to remove the bolt the fastener just spun around, I managed to pinch the fastener with needle nose pliers but they boot obviously has an issue.

I got the shorter version and the exact same thing happened to me. I suggest tightening the screws carefully when you first buy. One of the screws fell out so I tried to take the other out to find a right size replacement. If you try to unscrew the female side will start to spin inside the boot.

@@archiewilson4943 yeah I have got a replacement set coming and I said a similar thing, wd40 leave it an hour or so loosen the off whilst the slider is on, hopefully it bites against the plastic instead of tearing the leather, also pushing the slider fully forwards or backwards seemed to stop it popping off again!

THX for the "warning" about this boots

[@gilmastag413]

Cheers, hopefully they send out a replacement but no ideal!

Never had that happen on my S1 boots.

First ride in them after about an hour of wear for me, like I said I saw a pair on ebay with the same issue... Hopefully coincidence and it gets resolved but needed to be mentioned

@@martinyzfr I have some rst urban 2 that are sound, that's why I went for more rst, hopefully it gets resolved and I have no further issues, I got the rst 2 piece aswell as I liked the quality for value
