I've had Sidi sports boots for ages. Can't fault them at all. But due to an old ankle injury giving me some right pain I've only been wearing the softer gortex winter ones as my more armoured summer ones were too hard against the problem bone. So until it's sorted, I've been casually looking for a spare set of summer boots that wouldnt be painful to wear. I've tried about every brand on to no avail...apart from the expensive Daytonas which were lovely. Then I saw these today...Italian brand and decent price. Wow...mega comfy! In fact more comfy than the 6yr old well worn in Sidis...and perfect for my ankle issue. Seems a really nice boot all around for the price ( I got it for £160) So if there's anyone out there needs a more 'comfy' sports boot for whatever reason then I recommend you give these a try! I also tried the more race tech ones on and again super comfy! Obvs I can't comment on how well they wear yet
They look great. I tried some tcx boots a while back and they were nice. Had an air pump thing to inflate felt like feet were in the clouds! Very plush feeling.
I am dreading when the time comes and I have to change my alpines smx4’s they are so comfortable. Soft from the start and even better now
Nice one. Never really heard of them before. I wear Sidi Mag 1's if I know am going to be out all day riding, other that that I shove on my RST Parragon II boots.
TCX s race ,,,,,,, brilliant boots , or the RS2evo air pump boot These boots are good for a wide foot , like a hobbit .I found my Sidi boots pinched my feet .
@Lozzy Still like the boots? I've got a pair of TCX at the moment. Really nice fit on the foot (I've got wide hobbit feet) but I really struggle to zip them up over my leathers and after a while they feel like they're strangling my calves. Fancied changing them for something a little bit more sports touring. These look nice.
Yes mate they're as comfy as slippers...only criticism I have is that the quite large velcro side fastening may do the usual velcro fail thing after a lot of use. But I think that's only going to happen if they're on and off nearly every day. They're not toasty warm if you're a winter rider....I'm using my old Sidi gortex during these months. Apart from that they're lovely. I've got quite errrrm sturdy calves and there's plenty of room to zip up including my leathers inside. The velcro flaps adjust great to then tighten or loosen if you need it.
Nice one. Thanks @Lozzy. I might have a pop to York over Christmas and have a look 'cos they've got them in stock at Infinity. Are they waterproof?
No not like a gortex one. They're a summer boot I guess. But I was caught out in rain several times in them and nothing leaked. But then again it wasn't high mileage wet riding. Looking at the label...it's leather only. I've probably had these on and off maybe a hundred times since I bought them and just noticed the velcro getting a bit tatty but it's lost none of its stick. And i dont look after my stuff either so stuff gets tatty quick with me anyhow lol. You can see from the pics how you can adjust it to fit sturdier legs etc. I've narrow feet but they're quite wide too. A big plus is you can walk around in them for ages and they're as comfy as trainers!
