A company called Rockford allegedly makes a high quality elastopolymer (NOT rubber) "Duraboot" part #339-22 for Vanagon: http://www.rockfordcv.com/rcvboot.htm Rather pricey at $45 per boot and no online ordering from the website. However this website has them for an affordable price but out of stock: http://www.germansupply.com/home/customer/product.php?productid=16640 I was able to find some pre Asian invasion boots at the local small town FLAPS store in places were the residents are not likely to install new boots. The boxes were loaded with dust and leaky grease from years ago. There was no barcode on the box and a brand name I had never heard of. Probably early 90s stock that just sat on the shelf. Best of all the price was cheap about $9 per boot and I took all 4 they had. That's what I'd suggest, as you travel to remote areas look in local stores for old stock boots. Just ranting about this because my original German made boots lasted 27 years. I put on new boots from GoWesty and 3 years later they were all ripped or severely cracked looking like raku pottery. -- Gnarlie On Wed, Apr 30, 2014 at 11:59 AM, Kenneth Lewis <kdlewis@northstate.net> wrote: > What is a source for good quality CV boots? > Ken Lewis >
