SIDI boots. Awesome, waterproof(goretex), good off the bike as well. Tom
Baloo is my name. Spyders are my game. Well, it's a doo-bah-dee-doo, yes, it's a doo-bah-dee-doo, I mean a doo-bee, doo-bee, doo-bee, doo-bee, doo-bee-dee-doo. And, well, now. Ha ha! What have we here?
I wear a pair like these. You get a lot of water/weather protection, so these kinds of boots are waterproof enough. They are good enough to wear with jeans to khakis.

Combat boots from military but we are looking for some light weight alternatives too, shouldn't need heavy boots for Spyders. We have been using tennyrunners too and keeps feet nice and cool.
2012 RS White with corbin web seat, misty mountain seat skin, tour windshield, Hindle exhaust, handlebar risers, BRP saddlebags, foot boards, bump skid (critter splitter), fender LED lights, and lots of attitude.
The ones I have were close outs from Motorcycle Superstore a couple of years ago. I can't recall the brand, but the are virtually identical to the Alpinestars below. The ones I bought were like $69 close out and were so comfortable that I bought a second pair and put them in storage. They are as comfy as any tennis shoes I have.
These lined Clarks GTX boots are Goretex protected and as soft as a Neil Armstrong touch down. I have worn them every day on a 15-day Spyder tour and they were comfortable right out of the box. I can't say that about most of the footwear I've bought.

My wife and I wear the merrell hiking boots as well.
This is what I use I got them at Cycle Gear, I went in and tried on everything they had that
I thought would be good and here they are... they are like having on house slippers super comfortable
and on sale they are only $59.95 regular $149.95 even if you had to pay full price they are worth it.
Go to Cycle Gear and check them out. Be advised they are in foreign size so be sure to try them on
my shoe size is a 10 1/2 B the boots here are a size 22 but there is a tag that says USA size 13, I could put
both feet into a size 13... so try them on.
They are great

I got them at Cycle Gear they have
their brand on them called BILT if you don't have
a Cycle Gear in your town find them on line
they have good stuff at great prices
I wear " Z7" these are waterproof, ankle high, black. I got these @ Lenny's.com 1 of our local stores in the Central Vermont Area. These are very comfortable. My feet don't sweat. you can PM me for more info.
I wear heavy duty boots. The saved my feet when I went down. I ruined $150 boots, but my feet were ok. Since I don't know when and if I will go crash again, this is what I do. If I only knew when I was going to crash, I could dispense with all the ATGATT junk--but I failed Clairvoyance 101 in college.
This is why: happened in 1994: six month old boots. Feet NOT injured in any way.
