waterproof boots

[PrairieSpyder]

I sprayed this on my TCX non-waterproof boots. I haven't been wading in them, but it seems to have worked, so far.

SIDI for 15 years

I saw a review in a motorcycle magazine 15 years ago. They put weights in the tested boots to keep them upright in a bathtub with water higher than the ankles. The SIDI was the only boot that passed the test, so I got a pair. When they wore out, I got another pair, and they have never leaked even while riding all day in the rain. Comfortable to walk in, also. I was in some heavy thunderstorms Tuesday afternoon/evening north of Savannah. The boots were absolutely dry. I think the model was something like "on road gore-tex" but I don't see that model listed now.

I see a very similar boot called "all road gore-tex" at Motorcycle superstore listed for $325 to $345.

I've got a pair of Cruiserworks boots I've had for 10+ years and they're very comfortable and waterproof. I just had them resoled.

Ten years? How do they smell? :joke:

Danner. Super comfy and can wear them when it's over 100 or as cold in the 20's. Did I mention they were comfy??

WoW!!! For $345 I'll deal with wet feet... I just use tactical boots which you can get at most any tactical gear outlet like http://www.511tactical.com/footwear.html

I like an 8" boot personally.

I actually like my BRP RT Touring boots. :thumbup:

Bob
How comfortable are they and are they truly waterproof.
Heard mixed reviews

At SpyderFest; I wore them all day long... :thumbup:
And mine ARE waterproof! nojoke

Bob, are those the boots you bought at the SF several years ago when the vendor village was at the ball park? I think you said, then, they hurt your feet. How long did it take to break them in?

 

[Bob Denman]

That was a problem with my orthotics; the boots were actually just fine!

I have 2 pair of pull on Wolverine boots. Very comfortable, very flexible. One pair is now 4 years old. Still waterproof. Check and order through Zappos. Free shipping both ways. I ordered 5 pair of boots, sent 4 back. Never left the house. :thumbup: Tom :spyder:

If you can find them ( try e-bay ) " Totes " made over-boots ( covers ), that you put on over whatever you were wearing.......Mine are super light, stretch almost double in size WITHOUT TEARING, and will fit over anything. In the summer I don't like wearing heavy boots all the time, but also don't like wet feet. These things can be balled up about the size of a baseball, they are that thin...........I don't think they are made anymore so E-bay may be your only source..............................Mike :thumbup:

I've used these for years and they work well. They roll/fold up into a small bundle and stow away nicely. $27 bucks!

I am still on 2 wheels. My wife rides the Spyder. This might be different on 3 wheels. I bought a set of the Sedici boots at Cycle gear. They were very comfortable boots but after 1 season the soles were gone and I had holes. Found a set of BMW boots on closeout 3 years ago for $199 and they are both comfortable and durable. I think I will easily get 5 - 6 years out of the boots.

I've been using Harley Davidson boots for ten years. Not expensive, and they have worked very well.
