[align=left]I bought Harley boots, but not because of the name. I got a hell of a deal on them at Fleet Farm. They are very comfortable.

Doc Martins and Sidi on Road Sympatex for me....

 

I wear nothing but boots, have for years (don't even own any 'normal' shoes), and probably the longest lasting and most comfort pair I have is the Redwing Worx #5585.

In fact I bought a couple extra pair for future use.

Since I starting wearing them a few years ago my regular "Harley" boots and "Engineer" boots have gone into retirement mode.

Harley boots are made by Wolverine. They are hard, bulky, and simply suck. Go to any tack shop and try on a pair of rubber soled, black leather boots by Ariet and you can't go wrong. You pretty much get what you pay for. Cheers

 

You don't have to get the HD boots. They are a rebranded aftermarket shoe anyway (Wolverine). Wear what is confortable for you but also consider safety. The tougher the boot, the longer they last sliding down the road before toes are introduced to asphalt. Steel toes aren't necessarily mandatory but they make cool sparks, or so I've heard. Also consider something with ankle support. I saw Sport bike guys hot rodding in Myrtle Beach during bike week wearing flip-flops. Nuts. No one wants to buy their bike wear for the least likely event to occur while riding but at the same time I think you would be foolish to not at least consider a few "what-ifs" when picking out the right gear; boots are no exception. You might never fall but won't you appreciate having all your pieces still attached if you do?

I wear my Danner Ft Lewis Godevils (Uncle Sam worn't let me wear the black ones for work anymore) or a pair of HD riding boots. You might catch me wearing the well-used desert jungles once in a while but rarely anymore.

 

Not all boots are good for riding. Some Dr. Martin boots (a friend told me about this) will hit the exhaust pipes when riding and melt to the pipe. Also some boots that are thick soled are hard to ride with because it's harder to get your foot under the shift peg. My favorite riding boots are my old pair of redwings that I've since had to replace.

I have one pair with the zipper side and they are very comfortable. I wear them when it warmer out. I also have a pair of Chippewa's at double the price, and they are awesome.
