hey NSers, trying to decide between the two. ive only tried on the hot doggers and they are an amazingly comfortable boot, but for 100 dollars less im considering the drop kicks. anybody have any input on the two?

+k and much appreciation

im kind of in the same boat, i tried on both and love them but 550 is a heavy price for new boots

as far as i know

Drop Kicks: Performance liner, 4 flex, bootboard, less money

Hot doggers: Pro liner which is a big difference (doesnt pack is a much, is thicker, warmer, has the j hole for keeping the heal down and is just better all around) 6# flex so its a bit stiffer than the drop kicks, it also has the active bootboard


but the two boots are the same size and everything so its pretty much if YOU think the liner is worth it, i do IMO
