Depends how sexy the boots are and wether they're waterproof or not

Dont always wear my bike boots (ie short hop) but when i do, i tuck my trousers/leathers in to stop them flapping about.

Boots go over leathers but under jeans.

If you're lucky enough to get leathers / trouser to go anywhere near your boots...I on the other hand have to endure exposed ankles or wear walking gaiters to bridge the gap!!!

I only have textiles... but my boots go underneath.

lols, good luck getting my leathers over any boots!

leathers under boots, jeans over boots, job done

I know it's really "uncool" but I don't bother tucking in my boots and my tight jeans.

Tbh, I think that the uncool thing is to actually care about what other people think about you. Plus anyone who actually cares whether some stranger has tucked his trousers into his boots are not could easily be ripped if they said anything.

The textiles would go over if it was pouring though, but apart from that the boots go over.

There are too many bikers who spend too much time thinking about looking cool rather than just doing their own thing.

What a load of bollocks, bikes don't make the riders image-conscious. Insecurity does that.

I tuck everything into my boots, including jeans. If I wear big biker boots under trousers everyone assumes im a lesbian Although I learnt a valuable lesson recently about how waterproofs should go over boots when it rains....

PS - im not a lesbian tyvm.

Riding a recent sports bike I wear about the same as I do riding a very ratted naked bike or an 'adventure' style bike.

I can see that some who chose the bike they ride on looks as much as anything else wanting to match it with other sparkly bits. The psychological reasoning for this is another matter .
