Having asked the over under question a while ago I borrowed a suit earlier in the year that is an over the boot leg, and looks aside, it is more comfortable, it's one of those things you didn't realized that you missed it until you finally have it. There is also slightly more movement, not much but enough that you can notice it, noticably in the front to back movement.

Looks wise, people are used to seeing track suits tucked in the boots, anything out of the 'norm' looks wierd. I like the over the boot look myself.
