I have a pair of Milwaukee harness boots. I love the way they feel when riding. They slip under the shifter peg very nicely, but, the fit's not that great for walking around in. My heel tends to slip up with them.

80% of the time I use my wolverine steel toes. I'm so used to them that when I'm in a soft toe I have to remind myself to apply more pressure when upshifting.

Got these on Zappos and, although my bike (2013 XL1200C, Black Denim) won't arrive until mid September, I've worn them a bit and they are comfortable as hell...

I have been wearing combat boots every day for over 30 years. Old style leather, jungle, and desert boots. That is what I wear when I ride. They give good support and protection.

I've got HD Faded Glory boots, I absolutely love them, no foot pain riding and none walking around either. They are heavy but I'd like to think they'd protect my foot and ankle should the worst happen. They're not very ladylike tho.

Black timberlanr hiking boots for me. I like them a lot. I did buy H-D hiking boots low cuts and they sucked!

Danner acadias. Keep trying boots until you find something that's comfortable. Mine are very comfortable with the inserts I put in them. Hot. But comfortable.

I use ICON Field Armor Chukka riding boots. They should be called the "Chunkers" because they are bulky and chunky, but the have alot of armor and protection on them. I've worn them with my sportbike and still use them for riding on the Harley.

Only thing different I pick from when I drive the car or the motorcycle, is the helmet.
Maybe a jacket if it is a little bit chillier than I am comfortable with.
