Default BOOTS

Time again for a new pair of ridingboots. The HDs are not very comfortable. Suggestions?

I would do a search but it's still broke!

Good luck. I have yet to find boots I thought were comfortable for riding. I always go back to my black Nunn Bush shoes.

I live year round in my HD loggers. Everyday boot, for riding or whatever...Very comfortable, but I'm not a sneaker guy anyway.

I have size 14 EE feet and high arches. I got a pair of Red Wing #980 Motorcycle Boots, They are water-proof, black, high topped (10" from sole to top) biker boots. They are as comfortable as running shoes, very sturdy, and give sure footing when you put your foot down on oil, gravel, sandy pavement, etc. These are very comfortable to wear all day. www.shoestoboot.com has a good price and quick delivery on them. GO DAWGS!!!

Those will be my next choice if HD discontinues the loggers....So far I have not had trouble finding them. Been wearing them for about 6 years now...About a pair a year.

I wear Cabelas waterproof lace up boots. Are fairly inexpensive and wear very well. Go to Cabelas.com and look around. They are not "Engineer" boots, but I prefer lace up.....

Problem I have is that most H-D boots don't come in EE width. I prefer the zip side, leather/nylon boots kind of like the old jungle boots. (Except all black) Ideally, I'd have steel toes too.

Any body seen anything like this?

+1 for Red Wing's. I have the pull on style, no laces. Only brand I've worn for many years, working or riding.

I have 7 pairs of HD boots. All of them are comfortable. Maybe you need a podiatrist visitinstead of another pair of boots.

I wear these. They are like wearing light weight hiking boots, breathable, and waterproof.
