If you restrict your ankle too much, your knee will take more of the pressure and you risk knee injury

70 miles an hour on a gravel fire-road is not a good idea.

My problem is my new super cross boots are so stiff.I have to pick my whole foot up to shift!!! I would rather wear Tennis shoes. My. Saucony Shoes, best shoes I've ever owned. That's all I buy.

Just had a very similar injury, twisted ankle outward 180', bike landing on it, no boots. Was going very slow, still tore up my ligaments.

70 on gravel, and in a turn. Yikes. Did your ankle completely heal up from that lowside 7 years ago? Am getting a baby ADV, a CB500X, and looking at options in that type of boot, something between "touring" and dirt. I'll be riding 80/20 road/gravel.

So no flip flops then 🤔 got it 😊

i like talkin specifics

@5:28 😬

Good luck with recovery

"Redwings" lol ... .... Are there any other millinials who knew a different meaning for that hahah?

good info, glad you are recovering, sounds painful

Great info but what the hell are you doing 70 on gravel for?? Your lucky you didn't lose your leg!!

My fave vidon moto boots.

Great video for those tat need to know. It needed to be said. Fine Job!!!

Thank you! Great info from a personal view, just what I needed. I am only on my second pair of actual moto boots, Tech 3 MX, before that was Forma Adventure. I moved up to more protection, less walking/shifting comfort. The adjustment is going slowly.

Who cares about you

Great job! Thanks.

can I wear mc boots on street bikes?

I had my shinbone reaching for air through my pants. I will not consider buying any boot which isn't tall enough and without shin-protection.

20 years ago I spent a whole summer in a cast and not walking right because the GSXR 750 landed on my left ankle...MX boots all day everyday since then!

All I can say is SG12 and don't look back.

Wonderful video, but please don't use such technical medical terms like "Twisty Pushy" 6:15 I had to stop the video and google it. Glad you recovered.

Before this i rode with sneakers and broke my fibula on a motorcross bike. And yes the boot sucks when you break it

Hi, I was searching for riding boots and accidentally meet your video. I am quite surprised after watching your video. You made this video 5 long years back but it's very informative and helpful. Back then there were very few good motorcycle related channels. Why you stopped making video. Are you active in other social media?? You should make more video, I like you video a lot.

Hey, how do you rate Alpine Tucans after few years? My Tech3 broke down after a year of use :-( The shoe on the bend fell apart, the material cracked, I am thinking now about buying an Alpine Tucan, maybe GORETEX will be more durable?

Great video buddy :)

Pulling out of a parking lot on a big heavy cruiser, about 10 mph. Floorboard scraped and something grabbed the outside of my foot, twisted it, broke tibia and fibula. Went down when I stopped and tried to put my foot down. Ankle was fine. Rods and screws. Any sort of boot to keep your foot from twisting your leg in half?

I fell with 50-60km/h on a ride with hiking boots. Broke both my tibia and fibula. I have a big plate and many screws now. I just bought Sidi ADventure 2. Buy good boots guys

Broke and displaced the metatarsals in my right foot because the mud-sole/arch flexed on my Klim GTX ADV boots.

funny lol

I got the toucan for riding my tenere 700 on the dirt. I am a beginer and drive slow. Is it decent protection?

fastest run through shot show ever. lol

why did my ankle break with falco land 2 boots?

What do you think about wearing crocs?🤔

just bought srs 3 for use on my husky 701 but how the hell can this be the best supermoto boots? i cannot feel rear brake or gear lever at all. feels like im wearing 70s plattform shoes. zero feel.

Was hoping to see reviews on more gear like jackets and pants.

I broke my fibia in 3 places too and my knee and growth plate and got 2 surgery so I know that feeling

I was wearing a work boot and I cased a jump and now I am in a cast

Dave From Aus , on my 33rd bike currently 2008 990 Adventure , GREAT VID MATE , if you had included a Xray of your broken bones this shit should be mandatory viewing for new riders to the sport well done !!!!!!! Cheers Dave...

Planning to buy these. How is the built & quality on these ? How is the waterproof layering holding up ? What life do ya expect for these in terms or touring & mild off-roading ? Considering the specs I guess these are one of the best in terms of Looks/Protection/Comfort/Waterproofing out there in the market. I had TCX Baja GTX, Forma Terra Adv & AS tech 7 enduro also on mind. Which ya think will be an all season touring boot with good protection as well as life. ? I’m more confused between the Tech 7 Enduro & Toucans.

Tibia or fibula? No such bone as fibia.

Was hoping you wouldn't throw those beautiful redwings haha thanks for the video

what do you think of Timbaland botts?

Now they have air bags.

Honest review, .. FB disactivated u?

LOL - Like how you throw them on the floor like that, I would too when they don't sponsor your videos! Made my day.

I have seen Forma boots online at Motofever. Can you guide me which boot should I purchase. Here is the reference link for you motofever.com/

What seemed like a masculine good idea at the time turned out to be a terrible idea throwing the boots around like a kid....tossing his toys mad, breaking stuff. In hindsight, he did have practidal review points worth watching. What I am curious about and wish somebody would answer is there a difference between trail riding boots and highway riding boots?
