Default Boots

I need a new pair of boots. My old boots are done. I've put 105K miles on them and they're just past gone.

I like boots that have a little height to them, and comfortable. Not too heavy, and be able to walk in them a bit, but no major hiking I guess.

Any suggestions?

I prefer Chippewa logger style boots. Thick soles and higher heel. Have 3 pair of them. One pair for riding that are waterproof.

Bring on the flames but I just bought my first pair of Doc Martens from their Industrial line. Thick soles and steel toed. Very comfortable on and off the bike.

Wish I could help but I am looking too. There was a tread about boots on here not to long ago.

My boots are in need of replacing too. If I can find a pair just like my old ones I'll get them again. 8 years isn't too bad. They are black Wolverines, Thinculated with what I think is nylon on the sides of the ankle so they flexed well. I'm hopping some discounter has some old stock because these thing are probably discontinued.

Try a pair of Bates ultra light duty boots, Great boots for riding, I have the side zip ones. I have 2 other pair of riding boots, One is Thorogood duty ankle boots, great to walk in as well as ride. I also like Double H western roper style boots with a rubber sole and 2inch heel. The Harley boots that I like are too heavy and stiff.
