i just got some 06 SPK's from my local shop, and i got them for around 400. They fit well and everything and i really like them. Do you think i should return them and ask my shop to order the pro model for me? i dont really care how they look, but the flex is stiffer and it has a better liner than the Kaos. It would only cost me about 100 more to get them. Thoughts?

i tried an spk pro and a skp kaos on in my local shop (1 on each foot) and it really wasnt that different. the pro was a little bit stiffer but hardly noticeable and the liners felt almost exactly the same. id just save yourself the 100$ and keep the kaos

i work at a shop now, and today we had nothing to do for liek 2 hours, so we all were just chilling and trying on diffreent boots, the kao's felt amazingggg on my foot, and not nearly as wide as ppl said they are. I felt the nordica supercharger spark boots were MUCH wider. Id keep the kao's if i were you, not a huge difference between the two.

The new tecnica Agent boot is comfy as hell, tried that on at work.

But yeah, keep what you have, they are essentially the same boot.

 the boots i bought are 07 and i would be upgrading to an 08 model, which have a stiffer flex. if i had the 08 kaos i would keep them, but the 07 and 08 boots are different, im just not sure if the difference is big enough to warrant forking over another $100
