I wore red Wings for 20 years now i wear them only for work and for the last 10 years I found that dedicated motorcycle boots are very comfortable and are totally waterproof . I have had Sidi , Tourmaster and now TCX

was at a dealer in kenosha wisconsin yesteday, they had a closeout on boots......wife n i both got very comfortable waterproof boots on sale for $100 bucks each. i stopped in the place looking for a "onesie" baby outfit for our new grandson with a harley logo, and just happened on them. glad i stopped.

 

I had several pairs of 8" Bates laying around after I got out of the military, so I would wear them a lot. Very light and comfortable, but I recently bought a pair of TCX boots and love them. Very comfortable and completely waterproof. Yeah, not American made, but my Ultra isn't 100% either...

 

yeah, these arent made in the usa either, but like you said,
my ultra isnt all made here either..we ended up with harley branded wolverines, great boots, any other wolverines ive ever had lasted a long time. these look like they can be resoled as well so maybe the last boots ill buy as they will only be worn for riding. checked my receipt after posting, my boots were $125, hers were $105. mine had a price tag on them that said $190.00, hers were unmarked. like i said glad i stopped.

 

OP nice to hear you picked up a good pair for a great price! What's the name of them? I'm thinking of staying with my Red Wings, I always pick up a pair when we go to the casino in Mississippi with my winnings.

 

One old pair of halfway worn out Tony Lama's.

 

I usually wear my Ariat cowboy boots. They are the most comfortable to me. I did purchase a pair of HD riding boots with the zip up side. I like them alright, by my Ariats are my favorite.

 

Summer and cool climate weather - Harley-Davidson Austwell Boot.
Cold weather - Red Wing 8" Boot or an old pair of Herman Survivor's.

 

I wore Navy steel toe flight boots for a long time. Stopped at a Chair Force base one day and traded them for Kevlar toe boots. Day and night difference in warmth. The steel toes transfer cold on cold rides and the Kevlar insulated some.

 

Summer - Ariat Cowboy boots
Cold weather - Warrington Pro firefighter bunker boots. Well insulated
