I know I'm late on this thread but I have to say I bought Sidi Canyons their very tough and completely waterproof and i think they look the part http://www.google.co.uk/aclk?sa=L&a...cep_msku_flag=y&icep_cbt=n&adtype=pla&cad=rja

does anyone use steel toes for riding boots?.. what are the pluses and minuses of steel toes..

Steel toes are a good safety factor, but they will make you toes cold in cold weather.

You will lose some feeling for gear shifting unless you have a heal toe shifter.

If you want a steel toe look for a composit toe made out of plastic or fiberglass, much warmer.

Too hot to wear them so I thought I'd give them a bit of oil to keep them soft and waterproof. They'll be 30 in a few months hoping they last another 30 years.

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.

+1 on both the Georgia Boot Company, and to each their own.

I like the convenience and waterproof aspect of the boot. For a long time, I wore a SIDI boot with which I was very happy -- eventually the velcro closures didn't work so well.

Like others, I wanted the convenience, and something that didn't look so "motorcycle in your face" at work, and the Wellington fit that bill.

I must have easy (no lace up), waterproof (amazing with all the Chippewa offerings -- not one of the 'motorcycle' boots is waterproof - though many others are), and tall. Lastly, a modicum of civilian look is icing. And gosh, do I have to pay through the nose to get that combination ?

If folks see their respective favorite go on sale, I would be happy to see it here. Just sayin . . .
