What do people think of these boots? https://www.jsaccessories.co.uk/hermes/shop/search?query=superbike&itemsPerGroup=100&Submit=Search+Now
They're well priced and have some good features, and they look smart IMO. Anyone own a pair?

I got a pair from J&S in January and have used them every day since rain or shine.

They're a good boot, warm, waterproof and good value for money IMO Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

Ive got them in Black. They are a realy realy good boot.

Very clumpy and big compaired to other ones that are for sale, but they with stand tons of rain.

And beleive me I know im from Scotland Laughing

The only fault ive had with them is that one toe slider snapped without me even remotely trying to get my knee down or anything. I just called them and explained and they offered to replace them.

I never did get round to taken them back. Razz

Would recomend these boots to anybody.

I've been using a pair of MR2's since last year (see previous post Laughing ) and they've lasted well and survived a slide down the road Wink my only critisism which is the same for a lot of boots is the velcro gives up after a while so I've put a big press stud at the top of each which sorted the problem.

They're totally waterproof and warm as toast, for this sort of money they are an absolute bargain I.M.O.

Excellent boots, i'm on my second set and love em. Get them in plain black as they dont look out of place under jeans. I have also crash tested them and the footpeg snapped rather than my foot which is why i recommend them to anyone who asks. You could do a lot worse for the price Thumbs Up

Seller 'Ghostbikes' is flogging the silver and black ones on Ebay for £25, i know i bought a pair last week. Seem like a good boot for the price and my £100+ 6 month old Alpinestars velcro has stopped sticking so if i get 6 months out of them it will be a Bargain!

what is the fitting like for the torsion x and the m2r?
I normally take a size 9 in trainers and shoes.
Would i need a size bigger in these or could i just order a 9?
any help appreciated as I'm going for my direct access soon and i just want to get the kit together ready
