Boots

yes ankle and shin protection are not as strong but nothing beats leather for longevity
 
Redwing 8" lace ups. Steel toe, waterproof, ankle support and comfortable enough to wear all day. $150 every day. Redwing store still actually measures your foot and provides a boot that fits instead of the one size fits most approach most manufacturers provide
 
Us confederate cavalry cowboys wear waterproof Georgia Boot Company Wellington style, well, this one does anyhow. Only boots I can put on brand new and wear at work or play all day.

Boots are like most things motorcycle, to each his own. It's my foots happiness in the end. I need spurs, something that spins and sings in the wind.

I know Red Wing is a good boot. Yes, my foot was measured. However, the boots hurt my toes. They never did fit right. I was put in a boot a size smaller than I normally wear. I am not knocking Red Wing just saying even if they measure, no guarantee it will fit. I should have told them no on the size. Operator's error on the measuring.
 
12 years 135,000+ miles and still going strong on my Red Wings!
I did add side zippers to them last year to ease my hip when putting them on.

Wear mine every day...work or play
 
the only shoes I own are redwings work, play, or church(usually funerals)made my wife promise to bury me in a pair of redwings
 
will be my next boot when I wear the current pair down
 
I like my red wings, but I'll also swear by my pumas for riding! Truly waterproof out of the box, yet breathable and comfortable as heck walking around the villages and castle hills.
