My regular workwear is chino's, S/S Shirt and CAT's. Can't see myself wearing these narrow pointed "slang in die hol skop skoene" that seems to be the latest fashion worn with a jean pant. :mwink:
Anyhow, since I switched from a regular 1200GS, my CAT's have been taking serious strain from the foot pegs of the GSA.
Previously my CAT's used to last 5 - 7 year's plus, but ever since I switched to a GSA, the foot pegs are chowing my shoes faster than I can wear them through walking. I am now on my 3'rd pair of CAT's since I bought my first GSA in '07 :deal:
Especially my left foot as it moves quite a bit shifting gears, etc, but the right foot is stationery as there is no need to move about.
Anyone else having similar problems?
What is the solution? Do I fit a piece of rubber over the pegs to save my CAT's or to I get another brand of shoes with a harder sole and less grooves, and sh!t?
