Spotted on another forum.

Don't come much cheaper than that.

They look like cheap shit.

Edit - What was I thinking? They are cheap shit.

Shame I don't want another pair of boots at the mo, I'd be tempted to try them at that price.

"PU leather"? Do they mean plastic? Put those on and nobody will be in any doubt as to what you're doing today. Oh, you're riding your motorbike? Nice... Well it is if all you plan to do is stop at the coffee shop, and that comprises your plan for the day. Otherwise you look like an oddity wearing those while doing anything else. Nobody will look at those and think 'sports bike enthusiast'. They look too cheap. They scream 'noob' or 'commuter'. Although what really matters is armour protection... Anyway, you get what you pay for.

First of all, M and P are shit.

Secondly, those boots were literally made by a blind 7 year old.

If you want budget gear at least try something known like Aldi (or Lidl I always get confused) boots, some people say they've lasted years and are still waterproof

I liked my £25 Lidl boots, but the zip went after a couple of months.

Held are a German make, and everything I've had of theirs has been good (mainly waterproofs).

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

[/quote]Anything less than goretex isn't waterproof and will leak it's just a matter of when.

They are cheap shit. If you want warm comfortable goretex boots for not a lot of money look no further than Alpinestar web goretex.[/quote]

I have the Alpinestars web goretex, great boots, it took me buying a few pairs of shit boots to realise that if I want to keep my feet dry goretex is the only way to go.

I ride 80 miles a day though and in the pissing rain athgh speeds unless you have the best gear then the water will find a way in.
