Well i'm getting all my gear ready for when i get my new bike, brought an AGV Airtech helmet yesterday, got some joe rocket gloves 60% off for £50 last week and now looking for boots.

I quite like the old Oxtar boots but they are no longer in production, alpinestars are stupidly over-priced and same with sidi really.

I'm looking for sporty looking ones, they're usually classed as racing boots you know like sidi vertigo sort of style. Not bothered if they are waterproof or not but got a budget of about £90-£110.

Any reccomendations?

Cheers, Jack Thumbs Up

Got some Sidi Black Rain from the Busters shop a few weeks ago, £110-120 I think. Waterproof and sports style look though not featured on their website for some reason.

Check out the other boots on their site, though I would suggest trying before you buy as sizes seem to differ quite a bit between manufacturers.

Does it really matter what style they are Hollingstonstreetman?

Are you going to wear them to work?

I think sports type boots are a little less flexible, the boots that I have which are plain black I wear at work and at school occasionally, they look ok with a pair of jeans too. (The sidi's would probably too)

Might be worth thinking about the functionality. Thumbs Up
