Daytona Road Star GTX Boots Review at RevZilla.com

[@notdreadyet33]

Most comfortable boots I've ever had. Huge bonus considering protection is my main concern and these have that in spades, more so than some race boots twice the price. If you value your feet and ankles, don't skimp.

[@jamiemui5186]

It is a great boot. I finally wore out my last pair after 17 years. These boots never got my feet wet over 17 years avg of 10k miles per year as a daily commuter. The look has really never change from when i got my first pair. The shift panel started to fall apart after 16 years. Just clean them and use re spray the water-proofing once a year and they will last you a long time. Daytona has a re-condition program for the boots, new sole, replace shift panel and completely recondition. But it is expensive. If you are not a track rider, these could be the only boot you would need as a daily commuter. I have go down with them. And they have held up.

[@RevZilla]

Thanks for the feedback! Anthony has been wearing a pair whenever he has the chance and keeps commenting on how comfortable they are. -CK

[@vriendelijkegroet]

The only problem with this shoe: I want to buy new boots, but this one is unbreakable, I have mine for 10 years, but still going strong!!!

[@Spazik86]

Proper leather boot should last a lifetime with proper care (and couple repairs or sole replacement).

[@gumpertapollo97]

If anything is worn, you can ship them to the company and get them like new. And for a good price.

[@epiphonesg007]

This boot is the best touringboot out there. It's also the most comfortable boot ever. You will never get wet feet with these boots or have a feeling of wet feet. Except in the summer, the boots are made for a colder climate so above 24 degrees celsius it can get too hot. But they are warm enough for 0degrees celsius riding, even then your feet aren't cold.

[@epiphonesg007]

I recommended these to a friend of mine and he agrees with everything i say. He also didn't care about the price, it's more then worth it. I've seen these boots lasts for over 7 years, all they needed was a little touchup (new goretex,leather panels that are scuffed, new sole) for only 130€. So it's a investment well worth it.

[@NktRules]

***** So here where i live we have 25+ degrees Celcious and in summer 35 plus so i will have prob with these :/

[@epiphonesg007]

NktRules Offcourse, that's not what they are made for. You'll need a boot with plenty ventilation, like SIDI boots or Dainese.

[@DeFausti]

They still holding up 7 years later? 😋

[@epiphonesg007]

@@DeFausti yes, last year when they turned 9 i had to replace a zipper. I also bought a second pair so i can change boots daily. Still didn't let in a drop of water in 9 years

[@johnmicallef3502]

i have these boots now for 4 years and they are still going strong..! great feel and comfy and most impotant DRY...! what he dose not tell you is that the soles of the boot can be change for €58 and they check and fix your hole boot..! once you wear daytona you will not want to were any other boot..! i have a pair of TCX i only had them on my foot 2 times..!

[@RevZilla]

Awesome review! It sounds like you've put them through their paces too. What kind of bike do you ride? -Hi-Viz Brian

[@johnmicallef3502]

i ride a sv650s,gsx katana 1100,gsr 750. all these bikes i ride with my daytona boots. they really are the best boots i ever had..!

[@roadglide]

Awesome input. Sold me.

[@CajunGreenMan]

80K boots per year is interesting, but can we get some reference points, please? Who sells the most? How many does Dainese sell? This will give us a better perspective. Love that you guys carry Daytona! Keep up the great work!!

[@roadglide]

The perspective is in the research. When you do it you find Daytona, far and above, gets the highest marks. How many are sold is not relevant. Not everyone can afford top shelf gear. Look at Arai and Shoei helmets, they are far above the better helmets. Probably don’t sell as many numbers as other lower priced brands. Look at Klim gear. Again, best top shelf gear, not everyone can afford them. But have a devoted following of believers in their customer service, product quality, protection and safety value.

[@atlpaul]

No hard shin pate on these, only padding. My shin hurts when I hit it with my hand to test the protection. Other standard touring boots have a hard shin plate. I'm frustrated with this, despite the boots being otherwise very well made and beautiful.

[@capoverdepires]

How comfortable are these boots for walking around in and would you recommend doing so? For example, I'm looking for a pair of boots that I can use to tour 400 miles in and then use them to walk around and explore the destination. It would just be easier then having to take a spare pair of boots. Less luggage is better! 👍 Also is it true that they can be re-soled?

[@RevZilla]

+Rick Pires I find the Road Stars extremely comfortable. I could wear them all-day on and off the bike, so they can definitely be your only footwear needed for moto-travel. As for repair, yes they can be re-soled, but you would need to send them to Daytona in Germany to have it done. -DrewZilla

[@capoverdepires]

+RevZilla Thanks for the info!

[@johnmicallef3502]

+RevZilla i sent my boots to daytona cost me €35 not only will they do the re-soled they check the hole boot from the top to bottom and fix it with no extra costs.. i the one boot you will always need.. still have mine and going stong after 6years now.. errr i think i had them so long i cant remenber..!!!

[@flippflopps4026]

Are these quite a wide fitting boot? I've tried the 43's but they feel slightly too wide unless I wear thicker socks. And the 42's feel too small even with very thin socks, unless I just need to let them break in? Cheers for the great reviews.....

[@RevZilla]

+lee longworth Yes, even the regular widths fit a bit wide. For a slightly narrower width, consider the Dainese Latemar Boots. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/dainese-latemar-gore-tex-boots

[@flippflopps4026]

+RevZilla thanks for the reply. Keep up the great work!

[@buyaqub]

Hi am 44 in forma, what’s the correct size for me

[@roadglide]

100% agree. The best.

[@Igor12822]

Your size chart does not match Daytona original... as per them 28.5cm or 10 US is 43 euro, which in your table shows 44

[@stocks7765]

what is the difference between the road star gtx/traveller gtx/travelstar gtx

[@RevZilla]

Mostly it's the height. The Road Stars are approx. 29cm tall, Traveller: 34cm, and Travel Star: 32cm. The Road Stars have the most adjustability for calf size though. Of the three, we only carry the Road Stars. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/daytona-road-star-gtx-boots

Missing a Test of the Daxtona Evo Voltex boots

[@roadglide]

Awesome product.

[@lw8447]

Ankle protection??

[@cocky_potato]

Hey guys, little help here: I'm 43 in regular shoes and in stuff like Icon and TCX. Shall I get a 43 or better a 42? Thanks!

[@RevZilla]

I am also 43 in TCX, and I wear these boots in size 42. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/daytona-road-star-gtx-boots

[@mestredaquestio]

@@RevZilla Thanks man!

[@slawomirkolpak7791]

I love this boots. and i love you even more....Why not review something like Security Evo 3... Anthony ?

[@RevZilla]

+Slawomir Kolpak Because we're only carrying a limited selection of Daytona Boots currently. -DrewZilla

[@SKoNNeR]

what shock absorber do you recommend from dr.scholl? im interesting on the boots thanks

[@RevZilla]

We don't have any specific recommendation for insoles. You could use a wide variety of insoles depending on your specific foot shape. -DrewZilla

[@roscoeskipper7846]

Ah, Anthony, I miss you!

[@darrenbroadbent8743]

What size calf will these fit thanks

[@RevZilla]

Darren Broadbent It depends on your shoe size. How big are your feet, and how big around are your calves? -DrewZilla

[@Danomite1]

Is there a way to remove the stupid white lettering?

[@RevZilla]

Once you own them, you can do whatever you'd want with them. Paint or markers is always a way of covering up colors if you don't like them, and they are usually in your drawers at home already.

[@Danomite1]

@@RevZillaI understand that I can do that. What I asked for is how to REMOVE the letters off of the boot if there is a way without damaging it too much.

[@FaithisKey792]

Amazing boot, outstanding of a review😂-Top notch, say no more🙏 - God bless.
