Diadora Xtreme Boots Review
Diadora “Xtreme” Motorcycle Boots Light and airy feeling, the Diadora Xtreme boots are for riders who are looking for comfortable, good looking and affordable racing boot.

Sidi Jasmine Rain Boots
Sidi “Jasmine” Rain Boots Review They look like leather but these protective, waterproof motorcycle boots are made with Lorica.

Sidi Crossfire Boots Review
Sidi Crossfire TA Boots Review A new year is upon us and notwithstanding the piles of white cold stuff outside, my first evaluation of 2010 comes up as a positive experience. The Sidi Crossfire TA boots might represent the base motocross offering, but I am glad to say that these boots accommodate without much sacrifice. …
Sidi “Slash” Boots Review
Sidi “Slash” Motorcycle Boots The Sidi Slash street shoes or boots have mesh tops for excellent air flow. They have typical Sidi attention to safety but the absence of adjustability at the ankle may be problematic for some. Sidi is probably the King (and/or Queen) of motorcycle boots. I don’t suppose there is a registry …

TCX Sunray Boots Review
TCX Sunray Women’s Motorcycle Boots The TCX Women’s Sunray Gore-Tex Boots are leather women’s specific boots with plenty of reinforcement for added protection. Once again, standing in the middle of yet another motorcycle shop, I was frustrated.

BMW Street Sneaker 3 Review
Short Boots With BMW Style The BMW Street Sneaker 3 boots are comfortable right out of the box. After the outside of the sole hits the ground, there isn’t much sensation of wearing anything. They flex, support and provide pressure exactly where needed, at least for my foot. A small premium will be paid: I …
Sidi Vertigo Lei Boots
Sidi Vertigo Lei Boots Review Sidi has not forgotten the woman rider! The Sidi Vertigo Lei boots are not a frou-frou-fashion woman’s motorcycle accessory designed by men who think they know what a motorcycle riding woman should look like.

Falco 305 ESO TT Boots Review
Falco 305 ESO TT Motorcycle Boots Review The Falco 305 ESO TT boots are high-quality real leather boots made the old-fashioned way — by hand in Italy.

TCX SS Performance 2 Boots Review
TCX SS Performance 2 Boots Review The Oxtar TCS Sport boots I reviewed back in 2004 have been my all-time favorites for a number of reasons.

Sidi Strada Evo Rain Boots Review
Waterproof Racing Boots for the Street The Sidi Strada Evo Rain Boot offers a race-boot inspired design with subdued styling.

But wouldn’t look like …
Specter Road Leather Motorcycle Boots
Specter Road Leather Motorcycle Boots What exactly is a motorcycle boot? Work boots like the classic “engineer” boot and the logger boot are popular with motorcyclists, but they weren’t designed primarily for motorcycle riding.

Alpinestars Recon Boots
Alpinestars “Recon” Boots Review Reasonably priced and apparently well made but with a thin sole. It was a great plan. But, as plans do, it completely unraveled. The idea was to review a supah dee-luxe Enduro outfit. That would be the M2R Rally Cross jacket and pants combo with the Alpinestars Recon boots. Also, the cool Marushin Enduro helmet …
Roadgear TDF Motorcycle Boots
Roadgear TDF Motorcycle Boots Our new fascination with less-than-full-height motorcycle boots has led us to the Roadgear TDF, a relatively new product in the Roadgear lineup. I’m not sure that “short” is the best way to describe this type of motorcycle boot, but “height inhibited”, “ankle height” or “less than full height” don’t cut it, …
Setup Motorcycle Boots
Setup Pegaso Air Vented Boots In the interest of full disclosure, I’ll have to admit right up front that when it comes to vented motorcycle boots, I’m biased. The truth is, I love my Oxtar TCS Sport boots. They’re comfy and they flow lots of cooling air over my tired ol’ dogs. OK, so they squeak …
Kochmann “Scout” SC 1000 Boots Review
Kochmann SC 1000 Motorcycle Boots Super comfortable and they work well on and off the bike with good levels of protection for motorcycle riding.

Vendramini Aero Motorcycle Boots
Vendramini Aero Motorcycle Boots Red suede shoes? Why not — Elvis and Carl Perkins would have flipped for these, I’m sure. It took me several days of peeking inside the Vendramini box to get up the nerve to actually try them on, but judging from the reactions I’ve gotten from others, they’re a hit. It’s …
