Does most expensive REALLY mean BEST?

[@stevebreeding]

This is another vote for the Tech 7 Enduro Drystar. I have these for the serious off road stuff, and a set of Corozals for the touring with a little bit of dirt stuff. I am not sure how they compare to 900 dollar boots, but you can buy two sets so that you and a friend can figure it out.

[@YankiRides]

The tech 7s are most likely going to be my next purchase. As much good as a keep hearing about them

[@kee7678]

Dude I tried those boots on and agree with freaking everything you're saying. I want some so bad! Saving up!

i was honestly floored at how comfy they were straight out of the box. they are expensive, but amazing.

Solid review. I remember how excited you were that they said yes to them. Perfect for someone with a Klim budget. I like my alpinestar tech 3s, even though they don't flex much for shifting or walking.

I have the Revit GForce road boots and they’re the most comfortable pair I’ve owned, actually worn them full day in the office several times under jeans. Need some boots, and purely due to comfort factor of the GForce I would consider. Not sure how the price tag is warranted, I know my GForce are made in Vietnam and still cost me $200… they’re making some serious margin I’d imagine. Will still consider though given protection and comfort. Nice review, keep up the great work!

[@YankiRides]

the price tag is a bit much, but I can say, I haven't met a person that regrets getting them yet. The alpinestarts are great too (from friends telling me) for the lower budgets

[@paulcoverdale8312]

Oh I have used these boots since the first ones called the H2O waterproof boots. Along with these I Ouse Mobius X8 knee an shin guards. Now, the X8s fit to these boots like a glove too. Have not looked back. Awsome boots.❤❤❤🏍️🏍️🎃🎃🙏🙏👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧💎💎

[@YankiRides]

Yea I have had some issues shopping for braces with these myself. Gonna have to look those up

[@paulcoverdale8312]

@@YankiRides I swear by them . I’ve seen a fellow biker get a metal pole through the gap on his Leats. Not too bad, I had some super glue to seal the cut an stop the blood but, I was so glad I had Mobius bcs the pole or a branch , would just glance off. Needless to say, Stewart gave me a call two weeks later with bruises an all clear on knee probs. Appy to hear. But he had a few quid an bought one Mobius for the cut leg, compared the two an saved up for the other one. I saw him around April time an he’s like me, a solid convert. Boot an brace combo is easy, rock solid an won’t change any time soon. 🙏🙏🏍️🏍️👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧💯💯

That 's my boots! Love em. I bought mine from a European company, shipped to USA for less than $600.

[@YankiRides]

They saved my foot on a recent trip!

[@DonkeyDongDoug]

The Alpinestars Tech 5s are a little more budget friendly, but still offer a 4 buckle design. The Tech 7s offer a little bit more protection though. I wore 3 buckle TCX boots for the first couple years of riding, and had some big crashes off road and those boots held up just fine and kept me protected, but as I keep growing into it some more... it just makes more sense to have a boot like a Tech 5 or Tech 7, just in case I do need that extra bit of protection. If the extra $200 in cost saves me from screwing my ankle up... then it's worth every penny.

[@YankiRides]

same, how expensive is foot surgery, right?

[@kiliano61]

You're right, they are an excellent boot, it's a shame I can't buy them here.

[@YankiRides]

That’s a shame. Where is “here” for you?

[@paulcoverdale8312]

Yup! Pavlin road across Russia last yr on a T7 an on his say so Revitt changed the design for the better including gettin them on an off! The first gen were a Mare for that! Also they have widened the toe box an fit by 5mm for 2024 so they are great for wide feet an long days on the pegs. Improved the grip on the sole too but, could be better??? That’s the only gripe. ❤❤❤🏍️🏍️🎃🎃🙏🙏👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧💎💎👌👌

[@jjnewman65]

Just heard back from Revit customer services. The Vibram sole is not replaceable when worn out. Disappointing. I will take my new discoveries to my local cobbler to see what he thinks. If it’s positive I can buy a pair of soles from Vibram and he can replace 🙏🏻

i love my revits though... i wish they would come out with a true enduro boot

[@simulacrae]

I’m so confused, I checked the US revitsports site and yes, the expedition’s are 899. But here in Sweden even with our shitty euro to sek conversion they’re only about 700 usd. Why are you getting shafted like this? They’re 700 dollar boots, not 900.

Not sure. Didn’t know we were getting hosed that bad lmao

[@holden3083]

Boots look good. But for $1200. Here. They would want to last at least 6 years without a single fault. They would want to hold up really well on single track, but looking at them they would flex to much if they got hit front on in the toe area. So yeah definitely not worth the $ 1200.

[@YankiRides]

@@holden3083 I can tell you first hand, there is no flex. They have been on serious singles, and through flat track racing, and these things are just as solid as the day I took them out of the box. That being said, it’s a lot of money, and I couldn’t spend it. But they are the best boots I’ve used.

Dude those are beefy. I agree, the price is steep. Hell i had my Indie Ridge boots on my Amazon wishlist for about two years before I decided to reach out to them about a review pair and those are about ⅕ of the price of these boots 😂

[@YankiRides]

its a hard boot to recommend for the price, but who am i to tell people its too rich for their blood, right? like i said, best boots i have ever worn, i could not stomach the price, at least currently. hopefully i can get some other boots to test out and find the goldilocks boots, ya know?
