Boots... I've narrowed it down to Sidi Vertigo Corsas but the question is, which one's out of these two?

On the one hand, I love the white boots, especially with my bike being all black and black gear but the problem I think is they will get so full of shit quickly, should I get the others?

Or am I just being a cock for wanting white boots?

Out of those two I'd go for the black & white... but at the end of the day it's down to personal preference.

(For the record, I have plain black ones)

Pick the ones you like the look of the best maybe???

IMO though the all white ones would only be worn by someone completely devoid of taste Thumbs Down

What to do is.... Buy the white ones and get a pic of you wearing them posted and see how many "Ghey" comments you get.

More than 1 and you should have bought black. Wink

I see multiple issues....

Arrow White boots you want because they are shiny

Arrow White boots you have to clean to keep shiny.

Arrow Cleaning stuff Thumbs Down.

Arrow You had to ask on a public forum.

Wink

Saying that, I do have white boots, but I got them second hand and they were pretty dirt when I got them and haven't shinier since. Think one of my bikes leaked on them in the van last time, because there was a suspiciously-over white bit along with the thick mud on the rest of the boot.

White and black, the white boots will look shit in after a few months riding, and will look really manky as they get older and older

This topic has helped me see the light, I will get the black and white one's instead. I will get some white one's in the summer and only use them on decent days. Very Happy
