Great info, I broke my right shin bone (inner side) when my ebike fell on me due to wet offroad. I am trying to find a motorcross boot, but looking thru sidi, alpinestar, etc, I still can't find a boot that has HARD SHELL on entire inner section (like ski boot). Any suggestion? Thanks !

Tech 7 from 1994 buckle broke in 2014 Tech 7 bought 2015 no issues super comfortable 👌

I broke my ankle wearing a tech 7, now I’ll upgrade to a tech 10… in case you’re wondering how, I fell in a turn, a buddy of mine was right behind and didn’t have time for a full break and his front wheel hit my ankle…. Just had cirurgy this monday for two screws do fix the broken bone. Wish I was wearing a stiffer boot.

Great video as always guys ! Fantastic in-depth review I now want all of these boots 😂 I wish

Best thing I did with my SG12s was take the crappy insoles and get a pair of good gel ones! Wish I did this soon boot becomes about 10x more comfortable! Only flaw with them in my opinion especially when they have 100hrs on em ha

No Leatt? Crossfire?

[@PhillipCarter724]

Personally I had the tech 3’s. I wanted to upgrade so I purchased the SG12’s. They was great boots, but they are heavy. I wore them about 9 months and decided to sell them and get the Tech 7s. Honestly don’t regret going from a premium boot to a mid-level boot. Like you always say Chase, don’t let the price fool you!

That's awesome to hear! Glad you're liking your Tech 7s. Thank you for the feedback. - Chase

[@01camarosspower]

Where does the Leatt 5.5 fit in this category?

[@oznik46]

Not sure why the Sidi Crossfire was not included, my two cents - go for the stiffest boot you can, I’ve broke my feet with a premium boot and would definitely spend the extra buck for more protection! Wouldn’t want to think what happens if I had a cheaper boot.

[@wedgecharger]

Are you saying that the SIDI Crossf is stiffer than the 10's ?

[@mrmotocross6819]

What boot compaines off half sizes like 10.5 ?

Broke my ankle in a tech 10 i set my foot in a rut and i twisted my ankle.. what are the best boots for ankel protection

[@rmatvmc]

To be honest with you, every boot has it's limit of how much it can prevent a bad ankle injury. The Tech 10 is a very supportive/protective boot and I don't know if any boot would've changed what happened to you.

[@joe0813]

Can you do a review of some Enduro boots? trying to find my first pair of boots but I don't ride track.

[@2smokepipo812]

If you look at all enduro riders or trail riders that race scrambles etc, they all wear motocross boots, if you want a lot of foot peg feel and are willing to sacrifice toe protection, and protection of get hit by something, go with A star tech sevens, if you want all that protection and durability go with a pair of garnae sg12 or the sg10’s the sg10s would probably be better because if you’re just getting your first pair of boots sg12’s will be way to stiff and you’ll hate them, or maybe look at the Sidi atajos, or Sidi crossfire 2’s or threes, boots like those are better for off-road, where you’re likely to hit you feet on rocks and roots etc, you don’t need the ankle flexión support or a tech ten because you’re not likely to case a 80 foot jump in a trail, But honestly any boot is better than no boot, so even if you buy a entry level or a mid level price point boot that’s way better than going riding in a pair or shoes or flip flops.

[@christianfranck4320]

I have a pair of Gearne sg12s and have nothing bad to say about them. Great boot just takes a bit of time to break in.

I have tech 10 and I owned them for 3 months ish and I have a crash and snapped my tibia and fibula in 3 spots so I’m not sure if I can trust them to much but I still will run them maybe

[@stevewright4173]

I feel that next to Garne that the Forma Predator is the next best boot, and is the best value of premium boots, it would be nice if you guys would start carrying Forma products, RM ATV is my go to place to shop online, but I had to buy my Forma’s else where.

[@jacobc4822]

Would you recommend the leatt 5.5 flex lock boots for riding in the desert?

[@rmatvmc]

They will work great for any type of riding.

[@richghostman4763]

I need a pair of decent mid range boots, but I am a slim, THIN CALF, most every boot I see and try on, are way too big around the calf. I Bought a pair of SIDI Gortex adventure boots and they were almost TWICE my calf width as far closed as I could get them. So of course I returned them. Can anyone recommend a good decent boot that will close to smaller calf thin riders and size 11 foot? Would much appreciate.

[@aliennetwork08]

What is best for Jumps ?

[@rmatvmc]

I would say the Tech 10 has the best design for absorbing large impacts due to the flex control insert on the front between the two lower buckles. - Chase

[@jordanfrank5989]

Leatt Flexlock 5.5 any good?

[@rmatvmc]

I know a few riders that have them and they had positive reviews. Only negative for me was the hinge rubbing on my ankle, but that is subjective to the person wearing them. Aside from that, the ankle support is good, peg feel is pretty good, and the foot bed area is nice and wide. We have some on closeout right now for $299.00, that's a hard deal to beat. - Chase

[@benfairhall5331]

Bought tech 7s and don’t get me wrong they are a great boot! I just couldn’t get over the ‘heel float’ that I suffered from in them. Went to a tech 10 stuff out of the box but now they are worn in they are fantastic. Slightly narrower then then 7 and a bit fiddle to put on but chase is right 7s are like a ugboot. But for me 10s are the way to go. I had instincts previously and I struggled with the narrowness of the boot and the buckles all needed to be loctited as they constantly come loose. Rest of the boot wasn’t bad. If you ran the supervented tech 10s what happens when it’s wet do you just suck in water? I guess that’s the only thing during me away from it you’d need to own 2 pairs depending on weather conditions?

[@rmatvmc]

Thanks, Ben. That is great feedback. Yes, the 7 does have some heal float. I can get used to it but it's not my favorite thing haha. Thanks for the feedback. - Chase
