I wear HD Midlands. I hated the clunky motorcycle boots. They were so heavy! The Midlands are lighter and provide great support and traction. I actually bought a 2nd pair that are sitting new in the box in my closet! I was worried Harley would discontinue them!

I replaced my Wolverine Wellingtons this year with these padded waterproof Wellingtons

























I'll admit I wear my Skechers sissy shoes often too

TCX Hero 2 WP Boots | TCX Boots | Motorcycle Boot - Performance Cycle of Colorado

I have a pair of these. Not too heavy, the soles are on the thinner side which is great for those with long legs. They are water proof and have the laces and a side zipper. They are similar to the HD Hagermans above, but are water proof as well. They are a bit hot on 90+ degree days, but what boot isn't. But I've ridden in weather in the high 20's and did not have cold feet.

Too bad those aren't waterproof! I am now officially done with my Wolverine USAs, they are starting to leak bad LOL, finally, and they don't make them anymore. Everything is China.

I like those you posted! That is the style I am going after.

Indie ridge crow

Indie ridge Armstrong
https://www.indieridgeusa.com/collec...torcycle-boots

Forma something or others. I don't think they're made anymore

Indie ridge are great though. And you can wear them and still return if you don't care for them

Love these. Took awhile to break-in, but now all day comfort and waterproof.
Also discount through work.These are Rowan’s through “Shoes for Crews.” But I always get the non steel toe model.

Redwing engineer boots I bought in 2003. They've lasted through 6 motorcycles and about 500,000 miles.

Redwings are definitely a quality boot. Have had a couple pairs over the years. Don’t mind paying for good products, but they kinda lost me when a lot of there boots were being made overseas. I think they still might have some boots made in the USA.

.... I've never owned them, because I've tried them on and could never get past how big and clunky they are. I always just wear whatever shoes I'm wearing for the day. I don't have specific "riding" shoes/boots. So 90% of the time... Just tennis shoes.
