| Shredder   Joined: Jul 2010 From: Kent, WA I Ride: 2011 Kawi Versys and a 1999 Yamaha WR400F | Best bang for the buck on boots What would provide the best bang for the buck for off-road boots? I am thinking about Astars tech 3 boots for $200... but is there anything wrong with cheaper boots? How does the protection stack up against it? Input please? Note, just doing trail riding, nothing too complicated.... no motocross involved Should add.... on a budget, the cheaper the better Last edited by nemisis714; 06-15-2012 at 03:45 PM.. |

| Pit Crew  Joined: Feb 2008 From: Portland, Oregon USA I Ride: '06 GSX-R750, '09 CRF450R, '03 CR250, '97 Banshee | They are rated as good boots for the money. I have Tech 7's, which cost $350 and are great boots that should last many years of hard riding. |

| Endorsed Joined: Mar 2012 From: Renton, WA I Ride: '97 Bandit 1200N | I bought some Falco 110 volt boots, which I actually wanted to use for the street. Specifically I wanted something I could walk in comfortably when off the bike. I'm about to post them up in the classified section because they're just a tad too tight and I've already bought a different set of boots. They list for $200 and I'd take $150 for them. I rode twice in them, size 45. http://giannifalco.com/uk/detail_pro...d=110&linea=10 |
