Here after a lesson learned. I’m a new rider and bought my first dualsport at 27. Was riding in Vans until I severely messed up my ankle. I thought Mx boots were over priced...def worth it to get the good stuff.

Honestly it probably would have broken even with the white boots. It might have not been as bad because they would have absorbed more of the impact but, because of the type of impact, my ankle would have still been broken.

You can walk around comfortably in motocross boots after they're broke in. I had a pair of thor quadrant that became so broken in and comfortable, I kept wearing them just for casual walking. Now, that accident you had? I know the pain of breaking bones. They take a while to heal and bad weather makes them hurt.

Planning to buy these. How is the built & quality on these ? How is the waterproof layering holding up ? What life do ya expect for these in terms or touring & mild off-roading ? Considering the specs I guess these are one of the best in terms of Looks/Protection/Comfort/Waterproofing out there in the market. I had TCX Baja GTX, Forma Terra Adv & AS tech 7 enduro also on mind. Which ya think will be an all season touring boot with good protection as well as life. ? I’m more confused between the Tech 7 Enduro & Toucans.

Good demonstration. I like your taste in hiking/casual boots for sure. For someone looking to get into riding dual sport (I hope to get a DRZ400), what level of protection is adequate in terms of riding boots. My thinking is either get something like the Gaerne balanced oil or TCX drifter (can wear them on and off the bike), or get something along the lines of an enduro style boots and bring my hiking boots. Any thoughts on this?

I am a novice at riding bikes, but I love bending wrenches on them. My dad had me ride (and fix) a few bikes through my teens, so I know the barebones basics about how they work, how to shift, and how to balance (smooth clutch release is still on the class syllabus! Haha) but I have almost no experience actually riding on anything moderate or extreme. What should I expect from doing singletrack once I get to that level of expertise? (PS: I ride bikes like a grandpa!) Also, I Just bought some Tech 10s dipped in 'Murica, and they are really comfortable. Using them tomorrow when I go with my dad for a second major expedition into the Utah trail system. Your video was excellent, by the way, I hope you do more like them.

I wish I was out in Utah!! Hopefully, we will be out there soon. As for what to expect.... it depends! Depends on the trail and the bike, the weather, etc... My big pointers are staying loose on the bike, it doesn't want to go down any more than you do. don't fight it. Learn to ride standing up, it will give you more control. Last but not least, ride your own ride. If you are not comfortable with a section of trail or a technical part is beyond your abilities. find a way around or choose a different trail. have fun!! (I know this is a late response and you have probably figured this out already. Sorry about that!!)

Just picked my first bike , 2019 Suzuki DR 650 . Was running a little late while checking out the gear . As for the boots I went with the Fox Comp 5 . They aren't waterproof but seem to have a fair amount of flex and protection . Also the knee/shin protectors actually fit decently inside about 3"-4" from the top of the boots . The knee protectors have these nice flanges so with that the whole lower leg looks to be well protected from impacts falls ect. After seeing a yours and others boot reviews I can see some other nice options . Tomorrow is call the Motorcycle beginner riding course , schedule and finish that and then go get "legal" . Also will try on everything I got and verify if I made the right decisions . Already know I like the Just 1 helmet and the gloves so we will see . Sorry about your leg . I pray I don't have to go through that or worse . Some years back I was mountain biking this trail that skirts along the fence line of this restricted watershed . It goes for about 4-5 miles of mixed track mostly single . Well going down this short steep turn that has a water diversion log in the turn you need to time your wheelie/jump just right or else . On this day I timed it wrong , didn't lift enough and knew I was screwed . I landed to far forward on the front tire and had to bail off instantly or my head would have hit first . I had all my gear on . When I let go of the bike I grabbed at the thinner trees to break my fall but there was a pungee like tree stump that was like a spear . Thank God i had my chest protector on as I did get jabbed pretty good by it . When I recovered myself and stood back I saw what could have happened . That thing would have at least broke my sternum and if my grip failed I would probably have been killed . I grabbed that friggin thing and wrenched it back and forth until it snapped and I bent it away from the trail , that wasn't going to be an issue for the next guy that messed up . Things could be far worse if I mess up on a trail with something 340 lbs heavier and 20-50 mph faster . I am going to be Mr. Slowski until I get very proficient and comfortable riding this machine . Take care now and I'll check out your next video .

I have a pair of Alpine tech 3's. That second lowest buckle might give you guys problems. It cuts into the top of my foot if my foot bends up, and I can definitely see it causing my foot to break in a high speed somersault. I keep that buckle much looser than I think it was designed to be to avoid this. The new tech 3's have done away with that particular buckle. I think 3 buckle designs are probably better.

Trail boots have a stiffer upper and sole, and usually have more plastic armor. Obviously you can wear them on the Highway and be more protected, but you pretty much have to take them off to walk in and get a hamburger. Most trail riders prefer non waterproof boots for breathability. For long distance riding you do want waterproof boots.

Hmmm wearing out the "middle of the boot" means your feet are not placed correctly on the foot pegs .

I had my shinbone reaching for air through my pants. I will not consider buying any boot which isn't tall enough and without shin-protection.

You can, but I prefer the dexterity of dedicated road boots, depending on what I am riding. What you are wearing will also limit what boots you run on the road. Things like full leathers, Kevlar jeans, and any shin/leg protection might limit your boot options.

Hi Guys, Any of you have any experience with Scott boots? I am thinking abut changing my TCX city boots to a Scott 2016 550 MX and would like to know if its good or not... www.scott-sports.com/gb/en/page/mx-550-boot. Also this video was quite good, I broke both sides of my left foot wearing sneakers, going with about 20mph, slipping on oil. Bye-bye comfortable riding, welcome safe riding ;)

Yeah, wrecked doing 70 mph. The point was that it would have been a lot worse if I hadn’t had them on. When you hit that hard there is a good chance you are going to get hurt. Good gear will help keep injuries to a minimum.
