RE: Riding boots in public?
If im going to dinner or a movie - i usually wear my field icon boots, if it's something like a bar or place i might be dancing then i like wearing my tennis shoes/dress shoes.
no better feeling then wearing some nice protection on your feet tho, plus tennis shoes get really beat up fast (i have a few holes in mine).
if your gonna purchase some, it's going to take some getting used to (they are usually thicker, which is hard to shiftand heavy which makes you think your on the rear brake 24/7)- but it's well worth it IMO.

I've got a pair of riding boots that are real leather. I wear them all the time, awesome to ride in and go with everything you could possibly wear.
Comfortable, safe boots don't have to look like track boots! You generally don't push it hard enough on your way to an evening dinner to warrant wearing track boots that look goofy with your street clothes.

I wear Rossi boots (Rossiter, Aussie company), which look good with the jeans over the top, even though the boots finish about 4 inches below the knee. I have a pair of Rossi ankle boots for casual wear anyway & most of the time I can't feel the difference. Both comfortable for walking round in.

Good point.
I actually did adjust my shifter for my boots. Effortless shifting with those things, great with clutchless upshifting the 929...
Man, I'm getting itchy - must... ride... !

my boots anyways match my street wear (blue jeans or my icon superduty camo's haha)
