I used the Sidi Adventure for 80.000 km. Very comfy and absolute waterproof. I really love this boot for traveling on tarmac and easy gravel roads. They are still good - even you can see that they are not any longer new. But I am going to replace them. If I would do the same style of riding again in the future, I would get a new pair of the Sidi. But as I plan to do much more offroad and challenging terrain, I need something more protective. The Rev´it sound interesting, as well as the Alpinestars Tech 7.

I've just bought the Sidi's after previously using only old-fashioned leather boots with a long zip fastening and velcro calf strap. I've always worn pants tucked into the boots and those zips were prone to getting stuck. The Sidi's have no zips and take around 15 seconds each to put on fasten. Less expensive boots still have zips under velcro even if they are pretty much identical in other regards. $200 AUD for a zipper-less system is well worth the extra expense for the Sidi Adventure 2's. I was an Aussie postie, and always wore basic leather road boots. I've just resumed the role in country Victoria (in winter) and the old boots proved nearly useless. The Sidi's cost me $650 AUD, but they are comfortable, warm, waterproof, and near bulletproof for my riding needs. I will apply several coats of beeswax to help maintain their finish, but if unmaintained kickabouts like the old Rossi's could handle hard use for years, these boots should last much longer before they become compromised.

I ride in the SiDi Adv mk1 for 5 years and over 70.000km now and they are holding up nicely. I must say, that they started to leak after 3 years a bit. I’ve send them to SiDi and they replaced the membrane and the shoe soles because i’ve scarped the outside edges off sinds there are no sliders on the sides like on sports boots. Funny thing was tho, SiDi being Italian’s it took them over 5 months to do this!! 🤨 yeah i can laugh about it now 🤣

Whating for long term review.Sidi have review after 10 years in solid shape and steel waterproof,so I go for sidi for now
Looks like a nice shoe but the lacing system is a huge concern for me. I've had multiple BOA shoe systems, (snowboard boots and road cycling shoes) both gave out at some point rendering the boot/shoe useless until BOA sent me a replacement (takes about a week). Another issue that I had is that the BOA systems tend to get loose during the ride, requiring constant adjustment and re-tightening. Finally, sometimes the BOA mechanism would get stuck in the closed position, making it impossible to take off the shoe (happened several times on different shoes), extremely frustrating. BOA is a great idea but poorly designed. I would hate for this to happen on a big adventure trip, wouldnt take a $700 risk, or even a $300 risk.

i don't think this will happen with motorcycle shoes because with motorcycle shoes the boa is set stable against a hard surface but with cycling and snowboarding it is against fabric which is soft and will give some space with time. i tried it for 1 year now no problems but i dont like them because it takes longer to close and open and it makes noises when u open and close and it is kind of awkward to open in public or close

Great honest review Pavlin. I have found that the one thing that kills off waterproof boots is walking, the constant flexing of the membrane seems to be the issue, some are worse than others but it is always the weak spot,same goes for Gortex jackets, when they first start to leak it is mostly the inner elbow that goes first, and boots it is always the left foot because of the gear lever. I would honestly not waste my money on waterproof boots, a pair of good MX boots and over boots work so much better at a fraction of the cost, you only have to use the over boots when it rains, the only real advantage with adventure boots is they are lighter, 2.7 Kg for my Sidi as opposed to my tech 7 at 3.3 Kg.

The REV'IT boots look really great. Of course I recommend anyone try the boots on before buying if possible. Good boots are one of the most important investments someone planning a lot of riding hours can make. The key is comfort for the rider in whatever conditions you ride. If a boot isn't comfortable for you it doesn't matter what anyone else says about it. Bad boots are a distraction from an otherwise great trip. Good boots help make even terrible conditions tolerable. When I got new boots two years ago I had wanted to buy the SIDI adventure 2 boots, but they did not fit my feet comfortably. I ended up getting the Alpinestar Toucan boots. More money than I had planned to spend (about 30% more than the SIDI at the time and place I bought them) but they fit so well and were snug but really comfortable the first time I tried them on. I have used them in several cross country trips including hundreds of miles of dirt and thousands of miles of pavement, from below freezing to 110 deg F (43 deg C), and far too many hours in hard rain. Performed very well and proved to be worth the price. Also: Really excited to try that Tenere 700 when it finally comes around here.

I have a pair of combat boots with that same securement system. Yes, the wires seem very thin, but the material is aircraft grade. I've had these combat boots for a little less than 6 years; worn generally 4-5 days per week. It's just now getting to the point that I know I'll have to do a sole replacement within the next year, but the securement system is as good as new. My estimation is that the securement system will likely outlast the life of the boot. It's a great system. As for your review, I thought it was VERY fair. But REV'IT has outpriced themselves for the average working man. It's like putting $10,000.00 wheels and rims on a 1984 Honda Civic. Ain't gonna happen here.

It’s a 700$ boot that any time can leak water. Who would care if they cost 720$ and were goretex. If budget was the problem they left goretex out.

So how is your long-term experience with the Rev'it boots? I considered these for a brief moment, then I went with something a little less expensive. In my experience, nothing can really beat leather abrasion-wise. Of course, that material is very expensive. But you could basically combine it with Goretex, bolt as much plastic protection as you want to it. It is stiff in the beginning, it requires breaking in. On all of my motorcycle boots, I preferred exchangeable buckles (I used ADV boots before that even was a thing). Never lost any buckles, held up really well. With that wire stuff...had a pair of hiking boots. Guess what happened....maybe I operated the BOA system one time too often. Anyways, maybe BOA has been improved and you have more luck.

Great review and honest about everything. I have a pair of Forma boots and again for me it was all about budget and best protection at budget. Love the Sidi boots that is on my next to buy list. The Rev's are just to much bang on the budget, but it look super well built and if you have the money that's what you go for. I will be waiting on the long term review! Great work keep pushing the great content!

Looks like my next boots. Currently have W2 boots in a brown suede with vibram soles have a crack the sole there wearing down and not far off 7 years old. Are you still running TCK80 tyres on the bike there.

@@motorcycleadventures may go with them. Some people are saying those wear faster than the old E-07 but that doesn't bother me. Your bike looks great i looked at one before i got the f800gs but did not like the big double exhaust pipes or the front forks. And some parts had rust already and the bike was in the show room brand new. On disc's and caliper Finnish was ruined

They definitely finish way faster than the old 07, but they also provide a much better grip in almost any situation.

@@motorcycleadventures Excellent follow-up review, not only for the boots but the rest of the gear! Thank you for your time. One last clarification, are they watertight and proof? For some reason a lot of the reviews in Revzilla state that water goes in and it is really confusing! haha and while other videos state that they are waterproof. Happy holiday of USA!

I am confused about the waterproof capabilities of these boots. I have read so many reviews saying that they get immediately soaked with water. I am divided about that point and don't know if I should buy another model.
@youtubeaccount90585 жыл бұрын
I'm on my second pair of the Sidi. They're gore-tex, so they're as waterproof as any boot. But like any boot, even goretex, the waterproofing doesn't last all that long if you walk in them very much. If they sold any good motocross or adventure boots that were highly breathable instead of waterproof, I'd buy those and wear waterproof socks when needed. That's what I do with hiking boots now.

Boa is reliable, don’t worry. Boots will look perfect, even after 30.000 km plus. What I am not sure about is the membrane, but I have to mention, Rev’it always have been very polite and accommodating in the past. Whenever there occurred a problem they fixed it for free. We are going to switch from Discovery H2O to Expedition H2O, just because of safety reasons.

They have stopped making them, i mailed their customer service and the reply on February 10th was "thank you for your message and your interest in our products and brand. The current Expedition H2O boots are a runout style in our collection. We probably are going to replace it next year with a GORE-TEX version. With the style being on runout, and no more stock in our warehouse, I will not get another size EU48 again. Sorry to inform you. Probably your best chances are with one of our online retailers who might have stock of this size".

How are they doing as of 12/01/20. Just found your channel and love it. Thanks for the video I think you are one of the few that do an honest video. How are the wires holding up. I do have one concern and that is the knob used to tighten the boot , if you hit something on the shin that it will transfer the impact from the plastic shin guard into the knob and to shin bone. I would like to hear your word on how it actually takes a good wack to the shin.

Good review. I upgraded from Daytona touring boots to a pair of TCX Drifters for a little more protection. They have a perfect fit on my feet and they are wide enough to fit my calves. After getting used to the stiffer boots I am happy with them. The price and the boa system would keep me from getting the Revít boots.

Hi Max, We can assure you the BOA system is really good. Much easier to use than buckles and you can get a much better fit. The BOA system also has a lifetime guarantee in case of problems. But the BOA system is so strong that it is very rare that a customer has a problem with it. You can read more about it here: www.boafit.com/en-gb/innovation/#pid-1445
