I always wear boots because I laugh at the riders that wear sneakers or sandles.

I wear the lace up SWAT style boots. Since the PD bought them for me when I was working I still had a couple of good pairs in my possession when I retired. When those are worn out I'll probably get some type of engineer boot, gettin kinda tired of doing the laces thing. Guess I'm gettin lazy in my old age!

[color=#0033FF]I still enjoy the open toe sandal, and occasionally the moccasin. Zippers, laces or velcro? Who cares?

And if it's really hot, heck I just go barefoot. V-neck or crew, or how about tank top?

I wear what's comfortable dummies!......let me guess no one wears Sansabelt slacks either.

What's next? Boxers, briefs or free-ballin'?

Jeans or corduroy's.? Levi's or Wranglers?

Two step or waltz?

Boots are a safer bet, but wear what makes you comfy....I wear felony fliers as oppossed to the SWAT BOOTS! Does that make it official?

The flip flop gives greater flexibility with the floorboard! Rickies!

My wife once wanted to get on back with her sneakers because It was only gong for a short distance. Oh No your not!! Its black boots or you take the car. Its just wrong to be riding a harley with white sneakers. IMHO

[color=#6666FF]Just curious, what type of sock should be worn with the boots?

Does that matter?

You rickies talk a game about wearing boots....prob. the same guys who'd opt to not wearing a helmet. Thank goodness for the boots though.

Who cares about my melon....my feet are what counts.

Anyone ever try waders on the bike......that gives protection up past the knee?
