Guys,
I have just bough a new pair of the classic design, am I going nuts but it looks like I have 2 left boots?

Are they supposed to fit any foot as these just do not look or feel right

Cheers

Dane

I've never quite figured it out, they look both the same to me.

all I know is they're warm as &@£? but don't try walking long distances in them. My mate gave himself a groin strain 😂

Yep that's what there like , I always mark a them on the inside edges at the top with a permanent marker to make them sided as when you use them for a couple of years the inserts do feel more comfortable as if they've become L or R if that makes sence

definitely identify R and L and stick to it as the inner sole takes on the shape of your toes etc.

And mark L and R on the toes clearly so you can look down and confirm you're good to go...

There is no creation on earth that can give blisters like a set of worn skeetex inners.

Had exactly the same issue. Thought I was going mad trying to figure out the L and R.

Great boot for keeping your feet warm and even better if your a fan of jimmy cricket but as said terrible for walking any sort of distance in.

I've had a pair for years and it doesn't matter which foot you put them on they always look wrong.

Works better if you mark both up with a large L on the toe section..
