Default sidi sucks!

So I'm all ready to buy a nice pair of sidi boots for like $400ish, because I need something that covers my ankles for the MSF, and I call my shop and they don't carry them. Ok fine, so I call another, same deal. I look on the sidi website and the only two shops in the good ole US of A that stock them are in CA! WTF?! How are they supposed to sell something when no stores stock them? So now I have to buy some crappy Alpinestar or Teknic ones that aren't as pretty. lol Of you that have sidi boots how did you get them? I would figure you would want to try them on before you buy them. Oh well, maybe Alpinestar or Teknic will have some nice looking ones.

Mike

I don't know what you're talking 'bout...I work at a dealership in GA that stocks about 8 different Sidi boots.

Are you talking about the veritgo corsa's....i couldnt even find a dealer within 45 mins that sold sidi no less stocked them....i purchased them online...very comfortable...go slightly smaller than your reg shoe size....i wear 12-13 and got a deal on 12.5 and went with them otherwise i coulda fit in 11.5 and they wouldnt been very snug....the boots adjust like old ski boots across the arch and behind the calf offer good support ventilation and comfort 1st day i went for a 120 mi cruise in them w/o complaint

If a dealer doesn't stock'em ... at best you can say the dealer sucks not sidi

That's what online return policies are for .. make sure where you want to buy it doesn't have too many restrictions

I bought mine from motorcycle-superstore.com because I had bought and returned stuff before from'em with no problems. They have a 30 day return/exchange. I checked their size guide and ordered 1/2 size up from what I wear in normal shoes and they fit perfect so I didn't need to return them.

I took the msf course and you can wear high top tennis shoes. They just don't want people wearing stuff like sandals. I would wear tennis shoes until you can find a pair of sidi's.
