Buy the brand new ICON Field Armor boots I have listed on the Classifieds section. Heavy duty, look cool, way cheaper than Sidi's (which I used before i sold my F4i.)

are boots worth it? are you serious???

Do you have any idea how complicated and how many bones there are in your feet? When you crash what do you think sneakers are going to do to help you? GET good gear for your feet.

There's also a brutal vid of a kid who crashed his wheels (think it was a Yami)out on the netyou don't see the accident but his friend is running over to him in the aftermath, he is on his back holding one of his legs and his foot is DANGLING by a piece of FLESH and he is screaming BLOODY murder...

I have a pair of Oxtars. They are awesome.

After switching to REAL motorcycle boots - I was sold.

Funny - companies making boots specifically for motorcycle riding (not the poser boots) know what they are doing. They offer protection and comfort you just will not get from any other foot wear.

Get boots. Break them in (Any good boot will take some time to fit/stretch to your feet). You'll be a boot evangelist soon enough.

Personally, Riding boots are essential to me. Once i started riding with them, every time i ride, gotta have the boots on. Secondly, when i went down in big bear, the boots saved my toes. and it's definately a lot easier to shift in them.

ORIGINAL: Zultan

So I just recently bought myself a pair of riding boots. I've been riding with my regular shoes for a while now and I felt that boots would be something safer to ride in. Might I add it's hard to feel the shifter in these things so it's going to take some getting used to. Out of curiosity, are riding boots worth it? Saftey wise and everything else?
Yes!!!!!

But then, I'm a safety ****, so....

Haha well I'm glad I got some. There nice, but it takes a little bit to get used to might I add, and when it's 60 degrees it's hard to get motivated to go riding. . . I'm still pissed this whole last week it's been like 60 and foggy no sun ARGH!

The real question should be " Who doesn't wear riding boots"
I can't even remember that last time I rode without a pair of boots on
For the street I wear Icon Super Duty black and track A* SMX4
