Default My ***** hurt!

I've been wearing a pair of Justin boots (made in China) for about 5 years and they are starting to kill the ***** of my feet.

Anybody have a suggestion on a good pair of boots made in the USA that I could upgrade to and ride the scooter with?

Double H, Chippewa, Carolina made in USA. Red Wing biker boots made in China. Most of their work boots are USA. I wear Tony Lama or Laredo boots made in USA. Had old school shoemaker add traction soles to both. Tony Lamas super comfortable. Laredos can't walk much without tendonitis so hope bike don't break!

Lol, I thought this was going to be a seat problem.

I wear dingo harness boots, I have had many different brands, and these are by far the most comfortable riding boots I have owned. I'm pretty sure the are made in the USA

The worst boots I ever bought are the cheap made in china HD boots.
