Default New Gear this winter

Looking at purchasing a set of leathers and good set of boots. I wear a 14 boot. I found Sidi which seem to be good for like 230. Also Sidi were the only ones that I saw that are made in big sizes. Any reccomendations as far as 2-piece suits and boots are appreciated.

is your foot wide? sidi is know to be a norrow boot. i just got a set of oxtar ss performence boots. good armor, fit good and finish is right up there. as for 2 peice suits, i run a first gear pant and geirke jacket set up. its ok but i will be buying a one peice this winter. the joe rocket two peice is ok, as is the alpine stars. keep in mind almost all two peice suits have no perforations. and little venting. they can get real hot in the summer. my first gear pants are not vented, and hot in the summer. i got the jacket with good air flow. and when its real hot i have a tecknic jacket that is full perf. i am looking to buy a set of alpine star, or joe rocket one peice leathers. for some good deals on line check out newenough.com or motorcyclecloseouts.com. i got my boots from new enough for 150 off msrp.

Teknic chicane 2pc has perforations in the jacket n the pants has stretch panels that allow air flow. My boots are Sidi'd n I love em. The A*;s smx are a good boot too n price about the same as the sidi's. Know a few ppl with those n they love em.
