Seems OK product for a helicopter, but no crack visible.

There is absolutely no way that would work ..... sheesh ..... every helicopter pilot knows darn well you cannot fly with boots like that , the pointed heels will scratch the floor under the tail rotor pedals , never mind if they snag the carpet.

Now I want everybody to go back and look at the pictures (of the boots) and you will see what I mean.

That shouldn't be an accessory, it should be STANDARD equipment
