Boots!

[papercutout]

I looked at these but thought they would get a bit hot in summer. Also the toe looks pretty thick for getting under the gear shifter.


What about these instead? Similar style but shorter and thinner toe: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Motorbike-Motorc...ycle+boots

I'm wearing a pair a lot like this personally. Leather = pretty waterproof, just smother it in dubbin...

I don't have those exact ones, I just have a pair of similar boots. I picked them up in Mexico, brought them home and thought 'what the hell am I going to do with these now?' and so I wear them on the bike almost daily! Mine fit under the shifter easier than my Alpinestars SMX4's, but are slightly trickier to shift in because they're actually 'thinner' top to bottom.


Essentially, they were a 'well, I have them, might as well wear them' thing, and I'm pretty happy. They're scuffed and worn and are comfy now they're broken in.
