 Best Boots ever
By Mr. U. Ahrendt
I was looking for numerous boots to use for riding my Motorcylce but also for something with style.
These boots are awesome! They come in a treated textured leather (like an individual handled them with a bit of sandpaper) which is cool but goes away when you give them your basi shine.
The look of the leather is just stunning and is dissimilar for just plain cow hide.
The intended roughness will come back mechanically soon with these boots as you wear them.
The leather is soft but likewise strong sufficient as you need it for a boot like this.
First I was afraid that they might stretch too much because of the “softness” of the leather but it did not happen.
I was scared the the extra Strap on the side and the buckles might be a bit too much but actually they are very cool and fit that boot perfectly.
The boot has a huge rubber sole which is good for rain and even snow and ice.
They have a soft inside foodbed so I had no difficultnesses wearing them from day one.
The basi time I wore them was on a day trip on the bike in drizzle of rain. Boots got soacked and survied just fine.
Money well spend here.

Great motorcycle boots.
By dblhoya
I agree 100% with the initial review when it comes to the great looks and the quality of the leather and construction. They are a very good weight for riding, and the toe is a good fit for the gear shifter (my other boots have a much thicker, rounder toe that does not give the same control). I was worried the extra straps would be too much, but I actually like them a lot more than the traditionalisti harness/engineer style. These boots are not the cushiest pair I’ve owned, and they wouldn’t be my pick for a long day of walking, but they are comfortable and I wear them out steadily with jeans when I’m not riding. I tried them out in the snow here in DC this winter, and they held up fine but did not keep my feet warm at all and they stayed cold and a little damp for days until I left them on a radiator overnight. So I guess they aren’t perfective for everything, but I’m not complaining. They are outstanding boots and unquestionably worth the investment!
