Verified buyerSaved My Feet!
“These boots saved my lower legs, ankles, and feet in a bad crash. I had a highside at 60mph and slid down the highway. There was almost no damage to these! I am shocked at how well these held up. I am definitely buying another pair once I am fully healed from my wreck. I initially bought them to replace my shorter Stella Valencias and I am SO THANKFUL that I was wearing these that day.”

Verified buyerExtremely comfortable boot!
“Love these boots! They are very comfortable and feels like I'm wearing sneakers, the ankle up is also decently flexible which is surprising with how much protection it has.

I've opted to not fully zip up the inner zipper while wea”

I don't recommend these boots if you have narrow feet! They'll be too wide on you. The sizing aside from that is on point. Like another reviewer said, I wish there was more calf adjustment (I can just barely get them zipp”

Verified buyerGreat daily, break in beautifully, feel secure!
“I bought these so that I could have something better for commuting and around town use than just riding sneakers, but not quite as intense as my track boots. These are a great middle ground! My ankles feel SO MUCH more protected, and the thicker housing all around the foot makes things like shifting more comfortable too. It took some getting used to, feeling out the controls, getting comfortable with moving my feet forward and back on the pegs for shifting/braking (these have pretty toothy soles, so I have to actually take a little weight off my foot to move it forward and back, compared to th”
