Boots

[multijoy]

Hi Tec Magnums- do the job or end in tears?

I'm pretty confident that I don't need shiny slider bits, which seems to mean I don't need to hand over large wodges of cash for something that says 'motorbike' on it.

(I'm steering clear of army surplus for the time being, but I'm not discounting it completely).

I've a pair of the Sidi waterproof boots and my feet are starting to hum in this warm weather!

Any thoughts?

Ta,
Rich

Something like German Army boots are verygood for this time of year.
They seem to have gotten more expensive and scarce lately.
Not keen on the look-a-like new ones

I wear Magnums for at least 10 hours each day, and they are well worth the money. Better than most bike boots I've owned by a long way.

Well they won't split any easier than short bike boots.
You can wear them in comfort all day and walk miles too without looking a prat.

ive had these for about 18 months now.. used daily and never let me down.. they dont leak they are warm and comfy !

the zips have snapped ( as ost zips do ) but the velco holds them in place spot on..

i bought some 50 quid boots and they were just 50 quid boots aftera few weeks looked shite.. these still look in brand new condition and have done well over 30k miles ! ( in all weathers)

I wear SWAT boots, had the one with the air style bubble in the heels and now I have just the original styled. Only reason I changed was the fact that the soles had worn a little thin after 18 months or more and a little smelly after 12 hour shifts.

£60 or thereabouts?

i've found it takes about a month to break magnums in, and as for walking miles i did my gold exp ( the only bit i did) i didn't have an issue with the ankles.

i've got some random french furygans which are good but the ankle stitching has come away

am lookin for feedback from other people about these bikes my partner is a machanic and swears by bandits but i would like to see what other people think. i know loads about clothing and bikes but would justlike to see what other people think is that so hard to ask!

[temeluchus]

Magnums are little better than high leg trainers. Poorly made and wear out rapidly.

Woefully inadquate for motorbike use.

I Bought a few pairs, and one pair was destroyed in one week long exercise, fortunately i carried my issue DMS highs otherwise id have been in trouble.

Overpriced crap tbh

I found the Pro boot made my feet sweat badly. I just keep wearing DMS highs. The "assault" boot is so so, the soles are soft crap as are the pro boots.
