Default Picking Boots

Well im going to the motorcycle show next weekend in Toronto and im looking to buy a pair of street boots. I was interested in the Sidi Vertigo's but read in a thread on here that one person was having trouble with them getting caught up on the heel gaurds. Kinda worried about that........coming to a stop and not being able to put my foot down. I had also read that the vertigo's are stiff and not the greatest for walking around in.
So i was wondering what you all wear for boots and what the plus' are and the negatives.[/align][/align](I posted the same thread at 600RR.net)[/align]

72, hey on "new enough leather.com" joe r boots 69$. "Startups", at 125$ are a highly touted boot for the price. A-stars, always great...Oxtars also...Great!!!! and run a little wider than most. If enginier boots, are your style... "new enough" again, 49$!!!!!!!! great deal for that style and quality.
If you spot some boots at the show... Tell'm your lookin for a "screamer" deal... and will cruise w/ them slung cooly over your shoulder, for all to gawk and wish they were as cool as you... telling everyone where those studly boots ( not for mere mortals!!!) and the great guys, you are now renaming your first born after,reside!!!! WORKS every time !!!!!SCREAMER DEAL !!!!!!! Give people a chance (even dealers), to be magnanomous, and the blessings flow !!!!!!Have fun!!!!! Free and clean, Ripp'n

I have the corsas and mine are coming apart because they keep catching on the left foot. I think I'll just have to put some tape or something over them. =( By the way they are very stiff too. Although I've only worn them maybe 5 times.
