Are you looking for race boots or casual riding boots?

Hey all,

I'm in the market for some riding boots. At this stage I'm leaning towards some Alpine Stars. If anyone has any suggestions or recommendations of some good boots, let me know.

Cheers!

not to steal this post, but I'm looking for some casual riding boots that offer great protection and don't look like racing boots with jeans or cordura pants on...I can't say the same ofr shadow, but if he's looking for the same, POST UP!

Thanks guys...

btw...as a newbie to this forum, and a veteran of other online forums, this forum rocks thank ya! [8D]

Boot brand depends on foot shape...Alpine Stars=wide foot, Sidi=narrow foot, etc.
All I can say is try on as many different pairs at local stores and then ask them to match the best price you can find...they usually will or atleast try...
I have the Sidi Vertebra Race boots and I love them...my brother says they look like futuristic cowboy boots (they are quite flashy but offers great protection and fit perfect!)

actually I find that regular over the ankle steel toe leather work/technicians boots from Walmart/Sams etc are really cheap and offer some good protection.

And they look decent with jeans and any causal riding gear. They might not last as long as true riding boots or make you look like E-boz, but for their price they can't be beat IMHO.

I have the sidi b-one boots and they fit well and feel light and my foot is not exactly narrow and not exactly wide...

Yeah, I would have to say that Icon makes some of the nicest casual riding boots.
