Nice to find a reviewer that is a reviewer and not a shopping channel posing as a reviewer.

[@giff74]

I've tried several different proprietary water proof liners that aren't Goretex and they may as have used a plastic trash bag. Goretex is made by the Gore company, that's all they do is make the and refine the material. The end result is a much more comfortable and breathable material than any in house lining component.

[@pistolpete6321]

Just started watching your videos and you really do fantastic reviews. Keep up the great work!

[@matts4059]

The SMX-6 does come in a GTX version also. Makes for a brilliant all year round boot.

[@Into_The_Mystery_13]

The A* smx-6 v2 are the most comfortable boots ever. I prefer the look and protection of Sidi, but for walking around all day and having a decent level of protection they are as good as I can find. Sidis for the dirt and track though. I've had the ST and use Crossfire for dirt. If Sidi made a boot as comfortable as the Alpinestars I'd go with them.

[@ayowser01]

I used to use sidi vertigo corsa boots for sport riding and the boa lacing system would get caught up on the rear sets every so often. i made the move to dainese's "in" series of boots and haven't been happier.

[@kaiserindustries5567]

I have the alpinestars smx 6 waterproof and they are amazing

[@mohannair]

Sidi has been making those same boots for 20 years now. I have a pair from 2001 and its exactly the same. But hey they're quality and have lasted me a long time so don't mess with what works I guess.

[@thegatesofsleep]

Mohan Nair I just bought the SIDI ST they should arrive in a few days. I can’t wait and am very pleased to hear you got such life out of yours.

[@steveman1982]

Having lost some range of motion on my ankle (and gained some daily pain) after a highsider: Forget any footware for the motorcycle that does not A) cover the ankle and B) restricts it's motion to the painful range.

[@syk9855]

No riding boot without ankle protection should be on a list of BEST riding boots

[@jacobvargas7898]

Did you use to live in San Diego?

[@Mrich775]

My go to boots are the Mag-1's amazing boot both on and off boot. ADV Bikes get the Crossfire 3. Bad weather is the cobra gore and toucan cores.

[@edon440]

tcx rs-2 are the best you can have trust me i have any kind of boots from dainese to sidi tcx are on top fit movement walking lightness they just the best boots i have ever had

[@JohSno]

And TCX last, not like Sidi's starts to desintegrate in 6 months.

[@fecesdasheeit1581]

idk how i ended up on your channel but i love all the info and editing you do. keep up the good work

[@KingeryWorks]

where the hell is Dainese...

[@e.e9331]

@tom tom Unfortunately 100% spot on, I have Dainese SuperSpeed D1 jacket, 4 Stroke Evo gauntlets and TRQ boots, jacket and gloves are fantastic, the boots were trash, I dont wear them nearly as often as my TCX Moods, now looking for another pair of aggressive-ish shoes with better protection, probably wait a while and invest in SIDIs

[@axelfiraxa]

The Sidi Vertigo comes in a Gore-Tex version as well. I own those and i went 400kms through pouring rain and didn't get a hint of water in them.

[@Ben-rq5re]

These videos are great guys, so thanks a lot! I just came for some gear ideas for touring and hard street riding this summer, and found myself an hour later considering which of your chosen adventure boots and gloves I'd pick myself.. Love the format, just the right length and pacing in these reviews so looking forward to more. Peace from the UK

[@mate0107]

Simple. You can have your 'riding shoes' that goes under your jeans and still have full protection, high end race boots. Dainese Axial Pro In. People don t usualy even notice that I wear 'moto boots', nevertheless 'full on racing boots'. So there you go...

[@inralphlauren]

Best Channel ever. Thank you Fort Nine!

[@polarbear111000]

Your videos are excellent. Your delivery is spot on and informative. Your recommendations come across as unbiased and well reasoned. I'm looking at getting back into motorcycle riding after a few years off (sold my Ducati 999 to fund a down payment on our first home). Your reviews are of great assistance to someone like me whose been "out of the loop" for a few years. Thanx so much for your efforts. Cheers.PS: I love the "Canada specific" considerations, such as a waterproof boot in Vancouver. Nice. I live in SK, but grew up in Lions Bay, B.C. (a little village on the road to Whistler). We still have a home there, so I'll be using my next sport bike in both locations. Little tips regarding waterproofing etc. are extremely helpful.

[@DDHDTV]

duude, your video quality is exceptional. content and way of presentation is flawless. I'll sub!

[@Luise216]

The sidi are 👍✅

[@Mytwistedvoices]

Thank you! Just picked up the ICON Overlords. They are on close out.

[@Epillon]

Not a single Dainese boot made the cut?! The Torque series are arguably the best boots you can buy.

[@siniestro0239]

Is there a 2019/2020 version of this video? some of these are no longer available.

[@rayfriedman9625]

[@krisspappas7527]

I´ve got SMX6 V2 Drystar and it´s actually size larger than I usually wear ! :D And they also claim that the water repellent or whatever stuff is gore tex

[@tiger37373]

I like your approach to the reviews. just always wishing for other items. Daytona makes amazing boots...

[@Nasrou89]

Great review! i do have the alipinestars smx water proof and i have to make sure that i wear a thin pair of socks

[@seinfeld11123]

im a 43 euro in boots. and Alpine stars is exactly that for me. perhaps your feet swell or something. but they are true to size for me

[@axs7689]

Just bought the Icon overlord due to your video. Thanks man!

[@TyRaidd]

Good review but there's so, so many sport boots out there on the market. I was lucky enough to snag a pair of Alpinestars Supertech R boots on sale and they're absolutely incredible for track riding. Quite difficult to walk in but on the bike they're comfortable and give great feedback to your feet. For the street I'm using Dainese TR Course Out boots, which have excellent ankle protections and great fit as well as being quick to take on and off. Maybe slight overkill but I don't see boots as an area of protective equipment you should cut corners with.

[@snakerooni]

I like my Dainese Axial.

I assume you only review gear that is for sale at Fort Nine,and that's why we don't get to see anything from,say,RS Taichi,or any of the more obscure,but excellent European brands,like Richa,or Furygan.Shark make fabulous helmets,for example.It's a pity because your reviews are great to watch,just a bit limited,seeing the same brands all the time.I guess it all boils down to economics.After all,there is a big Fort Nine logo at the beginning of the video,so what should we expect?The vlogs and travel videos are fun too,even though I don't live in Canada.or even the northern hemisphere.But never say never in MotorcycleWorld!I may get there one day.Anyhow,congratulations.It's not many channels I bother to subscribe to,and God knows there's no shortage of them out there!Good luck,and stay upright.

[@MeeJunksEavy]

Ever tried the Daytona AC Pro boots? Best low cut boots I've ever owned. German made. I also own the Alpinestars S-MX 2, but they just don't compare.

[@guy-uo8nv]

I took your advice and got some good motorcycle shoes

[@gromkour5341]

this video might be old but im lookinbg for a good pair of boots i can use while riding on the road as well as day to day life (going to class or work) as i live a decent distance from everything and would like to be safe while geting about without having to change

[@ricardojorge5654]

amazing!

[@RadxPLord]

The vertigo is like putting on the boots of iron man

[@marsupinladen]

Can you do the comparison of S-MX 1R/1R vented vs S-MX 2. Very appreciate !!! Thanks.

[@drjaimetobon]

I have the SMX-6, getting used to it but I actually don't like the sole it's slippery on my pegs could def use more grip like the vertigo

[@tomedgar4375]

Great review, update four years later?

[@JohSno]

Could you please review the Daytona Strive and TCX S-Speed in the future vids.

[@Jocelynie870]

I was wondering where this is a older vid could you kind of give me a list of good motorcycle gear for a beginner starting on sportbike?

[@jackmccourt2648]

My fiance had the Sidi vertigo boots and she had to replace them with the same Alpinestars boots I have (smx6) because there is no padding on the inside making them really uncomfy.

[@LennertWanders]

Interesting, why didn't you pick the SMX-6 GTX Goretex :-) it will serve all purpose.

[@FortNine]

I couldn't get my hands on a pair! But I imagine you're right - it's probably the best all-purpose option. ~RyanF9

[@LennertWanders]

I am replacing my daily driving boots (current Richa) with the SMX 6 goretex but they are on backorder (23th of June)

[@Osprey1994]

+FortNine The Sidi boots and the SMX 6's are nice and all but you should take a look at Joe rocket's Speed master 3.0 boots they are fantastic and for the money they offer serious protection with a titanium puck covering the outside of your ankle.

[@LennertWanders]

Added to that, the Sidi is for small feet. (I tried them) but ended up with the SMX6 as it can handle a wider foot :)

[@Osprey1994]

Lennert Wanders Joe Rocket also supports a wider toe box and has accurate American sizing my Speedmaster 3.0s definitly aren't meant for tons of walking but hell why would you get off the bike for reasons other than stretching or food? If you commute throw a pair of shoes and pants in your backpack and change at work store your boots under your desk. After seeing what happened to a kids leg when he crashed with a ankle high boot I'm taking 0 risks.

[@diegeeleel]

Why are these so much less protective than mx boots? Road racers dont get broken ankles?

[@62saki91]

as all these manufacturers seem to cut off at size 13 NARROW, where can i get some custom mades for 13 WIDE?

[@David_Day]

I'm noticing that Dainese products are hardly covered in Ryan's product reviews... why is that?

[@jollyrgr2854]

Ryan, have you done a review of the Icon 1000 Prep Waterproof Boots? I'm an adventure bike rider and have learned the hard way that for dual purpose riding, armor is good.

[@FortNine]

Hmm, kind of. I reviewed the Prep in this video (kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKCVd6Bjad6XnJY) but through more of a cruiser-riding lens.

[@bukoboys6994]

I need you help dude im from the Philippines and may calves are so big that I cant find a racing boots for me. I tried alpinestars Smx and dainese and nothing fits

[@CP9_Shino]

Sidi Vertigo over the Sidi Roarr?? The Roarrs are like an updated Vertigo with better protection agains torsional forces with the caveat of not being able to replace the heel protection.

[@douglasburt1622]

I could really use your help. Are there any. boots that you like, that are high in protection and comfort and are available in wide sizes? Not sure how I'm going to protect my feet and legs if I can't find them.

[@ANFOWolf]

Just curious, What's the difference between motocross boots and sport style motorcycle boots? Can I just use motocross boots instead of sport rider boots? @fortnine

[@Devinishome]

I'm confused why you "pick" the overlord but it has bad fitment.

[@swisschoco25]

What about the SMX 5?

[@TheAusherGuy]

Where can I get a pair of alpinestars smx-2? I can't find them anywhere...

[@MRBOOTT]

Sorry to ask, but do you use any of the equipment u review? Reason I ask is because it all looks fresh out of the box.

[@palegrayenoaz8780]

Fortnine is a store so they have access to new equipment

[@itsanmolhimself3789]

i am not able to find smx 2 or smx 3 at any local dealers. have they been discontinued? any new boots replacing them?

[@peteyboy6629]

What's opinion of the Sidi Roarr boots that fall between the Vertigo and ST?

[@FortNine]

Not a big fan. It's basically just a Sidi Vertigo with slightly better torsional ankle protection. The Techno closure system and the vents are also different from the Vertigo, but they're neither better nor worse. Just different. So is that worth the $120 jump in price? Not to me. If you ride track days, get the Vertigo and save some money. If you're a more serious racer, get the full safety advantage of the ST. In my opinion, the middle-ground Roarr doesn't make sense for anybody. ~RyanF9

I really don't understand why the guys from Alpinestars can't make normal size boots,jackets,gloves,etc.?!?! If I want to order online their products,I still have to go to a motorcycle store to try them on,go home and order it,which is a pain in the ass to be honest....:/

[@mcegypt20]

Serious questions from a new rider. How good is the protection on the alpinestars Smx-1R shoe? And would you recommend the Sidi Apex for my first riding shoe?

[@Bladsmith]

Don't overthink things, man. If you're getting real motorcycle shoes, you're doing better than most people. Bigger, bulkier shoes are always more protective.

[@mcegypt20]

Bladsmith thanks for the reply. Just rather be safe than sorry. What motorcycle shoes do you wear?

[@Bladsmith]

Sweep Challengers. Tall touring boots with full ankle and shin protection, I like them.

[@Mad69Russian]

None of the sport boots in my video were exceptionally wide. But I do have a couple suggestions for you: TCX S-Sportour EVO and TCX S-Speed. Both of which are awesome boots, and both run pretty wide. ~RyanF9
