Motorcycle Boots Tips

Upper design
Select motorcycle boots that at least cover your ankles. This has two advantages (1) your ankle is protected (2) and your foot becomes more strong and thus better able to handle anything the bike wants to do (eg. tip over, slide away from you and onto your foot, burn your feet)

It helps if the upper section has shell protection. The upper section can be reinforced at the front, the back, the heel, toes and ankle. On some boots you can adjust the shells for a perfect fit. Without a doubt such protection is the safest.

 Foot design
Two things are important for a good foot design. (1) How well does the design grip the ankle and heel. (a good grip prevents heel from lifting and makes for a more comfortable ride). (2) Does the motorcycle boot have a shifter pad (the boot is going to be used a lot in this area) Yes, I know some bikes don't need this and have heel shift too.


 Sole design
Grip! On and off the bike. Motorcycle boots should include a heel under the sole so you can rest it easily on the foot peg. On the road the motorcycle boot should give you great grip in mud, water, sand and oil.


 Boot material
Most motorcycle boots are made of leather with reinforcements on all the essential places. The leather can be supplemented with newer kinds of materials like Gore-Tex (which increases the breath ability). 

A stiff rubber sole forms the basis for motorcycle boots. Chin, ankle, heels and calf are often protected by a carbon Kevlar material which protects the foot at the critical areas.



 Opening & closing

Do your motorcycle boots use a step in system with Velcro or shoelaces. It doesn't matter as long as you don't have loose material hanging from your feet. You could get it caught on the shift leaver or other places. Just check how your motorcycle boot handles this.


 Ventilation

Apart from engine heat just wearing (big) motorcycle boots will heat up your feet. Does your boot have a ventilation system? Maybe something like Gore-tex which lets your feet breath without letting water in. Good leather is also known for it's ability to breath.


 Water resistant

It is great to have water resistant motorcycle boots! It can just poor down, water can splash up against my feet... but I won't notice a thing. I highly recommend finding good water resistant motorcycle gear but especially boots.


 Boot usability
Are you going to be using your motorcycle boots for other things. You might want all round boots which will easily let you go for a hike, take them out to town or walk around the office. Are you going to only wear them riding or all day? Think of this before you select.
