Default What kind of boots you ride with?

Couldn't find a better location for this question... But what kind of boots you guys like to wear while riding? Looked at a few pair of HD boots but wasn't sure yet. My current ones are some el cheapo black steel toes that kill my feet...

Die hard "Tourmaster" fan here.... They run a tad wide and that helps me..
I have a dry pair and a pair of their "waterproofs"

The waterproofs breath nicely so they do not get too damp inside.. I have worn them on clear days and they do very well..
I have used newenough.com for a lot of years with great service.. they changed names (same company) http://www.motorcyclegear.com/
They tend to have a lot of "closeout" stuff so never can tell what brands they have on hand.. (easy returns too)

Georgia low heel loggers. More comfy and a lot less expensive than HD boots

There was a thread on this about 6 weeks ago.
Try searching "riding boots".

Coming from Wisconsin I'm shocked you have to asked what boot to buy.

I've tried different ones including HD until I got a pair of Milwaukee Troopers.
I've had them for 3 years now and can wear them all day on and off the bike.

They're price around $100 and run just a tad small.
I normally wear a 10.5 but wear an 11 in the Milwaukee Troopers.

If mine failed me today, I'd have another exact pair tomorrow.
Matter or fact I've been thinking of getting me a second pair just in case they quit making them.

Find a boot you can afford that you can walk in also. Something leather above the ankle for ankle support and protection. I don't know what brand I even have now but they are comfortable as well as boots can be.

when I first bought a harley I was eager to get all the different stuff they sold. I got the boots and as long as I'm only riding they are ok. If doing any kind of walking they kill my feet. Against most advice I mostly ride in sneakers. Several years down the road I have learned and very rarely by any harley clothing. I do like a lot of the styling on their jackets though compared to most I see on the market but the price of them keep me away.

These. I got them on sale at a dealer about 7 years ago. They are broke in just right. I think I've seen them for men as well. They are sturdy, comfortable to walk in and I've had 10 hour days in the seat and my feet were just fine.
