    Default What are you wearing for boots / shoes

    Since I no longer need a shift pad (SE6) and summers coming on, anybody have a recommendation for a good / ventilated /waterproof boot that could be worn on the bike and also off the bike so I could only carry one pair of shoes when I go touring. It would save on space

    I wear Cruiserworks Classic boots. 100% waterproof and great customer service . They don't look dorky if going to dinner, shopping , etc. Have had mine probably 12 years and resoled once.

    My boots (1st photo): Milwaukee Motorcycle Clothing Co. Mens Road Captain Leather Boots - MB43318
    My wife's boots (2nd photo): Milwaukee Motorcycle Clothing Co. Womens Afterburner Boots

    Have had these boots about 2 years...extremely comfortable from day 1. Easy to put on - one side zipper... They almost look new yet and are wearing well.

    Good luck with your selection!

    I wear a pair of nacona cowboy boots. I might as well be comfortable. Thats what i would wear to work anyway and I have to wear shoes over the ankle when I ride or they won't let me in the facility. I also must wear reflective clothing and long sleeves, I would anyway but it is mandated.

    The wife and I have these. I like them because they zip on and off. After a long day riding the last thing I wanna do is mess with buckles or laces.

    I bought Tourmaster Response 2 boots. They are comfortable, lightweight, waterproof and breathable. I can wear them all day. I did at Spyderfest.

    I wear Hi-Tec Men's Falcon Waterproof Hiking Boot. They're comfy on and off my RT and were definitely waterproof in 6 inches of snow over the winter.

    Default Shoes..!!

    pretty much any study lace on shoe or ankle boot. Seeing as the ryding style is such that you are not going to put your down next to hot pipes, your not going to ryde the underbrush, you won't be dragging your feet you just need a good shoe. No sandals, flip flops, strappies etc...its what I do and I drive manual...

    I don't own any boots, I wear my everyday sneakers.

    Never had a comfortable pair of boots, they're always so stiff forever.
