Qualiy Boot!!

Wes in ID

Comments On Feb 08, 2013:This boot, out of the box is the most comfortable boot I have ever worn. It has probably the best sole for slick surfaces. It seriously fit and was easy to walk in right out of the box. It is true to the size I wear. When I took a chance on this boot I needed a something between a Motocross boot & everyday work boot. I believe this boot is in Gaerne's trials riding class of boot. I ride hard trails, but needed a boot I could walk in when I'm helping buddies with their bikes on rides. It offers enough protection for harder trail rides. It is not recommended for any Motocross. There is just not enough ankle support for that. The quality is second to none. I watched a review online that said you could re-sole them. All I can say is give this boot a try. It's not the norm, but performs great!!

Additional Comments On Apr 07, 2013:I"m getting back on to further my review after 300 miles of riding. My view has not change one bit. This is the most fantastic, most comfortable trail riding boot I have worn ever!!!! Now I can see why it's been around so long. Considering that most people trail ride I'm shocked I don't see them more often out on the trail.

Comments On Mar 26, 2013:Comfortable and give you solid protection. Leather got grinded down in a few spots but in moab but I think these will wear better on dirt trails where I plan to use them.

Very Pleased

Stephen in UT

Comments On Jan 25, 2013:So, these are a little bit on the pricey end for what I could have purchased by way of boots, but for me these fit the bill perfectly. I ride an ATV, not quite as demanding or dangerous as MX, but certainly wet and dirty. These boots ARE WATERPROOF! I took them out as soon as I purchased them and spent hours in ankle deep wet and muck. Feet were toasty dry after the day was over. They are comfortable for walking long periods in and provide moderate safety on a quad. I don't feel like a stormtrooper in them either like other MX boots I have worn. If you are looking for a safe boot that looks great, comfortable to walk in and holds up to the elements, this is your boot!

Very comfortable

Bill in WA

Comments On Jan 04, 2013:The comfort while walking is unsurpassed, it feels like a hiking boot! Waterproof....I'm the only one in our group with dry feet! The flexible gum rubber sole is not the best for stand-up riding. I had a bad case of plantar fasciitis after a long ride and can attribute it to the gum soles. Also, there isnt a lot of lateral ankle support. I would recommend this boot for casual trail riders, not for the aggressive type.

Truly waterproof and very comfortable

KEVIN in ID

Comments On Jul 05, 2011:Was a little skeptical about the waterproofness but after spending 15-20 minutes wading in 3-8" inches of fast moving very cold (still lots of snowmelt going on up high here in north idaho) creek water repairing part of a singletrack bridge my feet were completely dry and warm. Very comfortable, almost zero breakin and the gum rubber soles gave great traction on the slippery rocks while doing some bridge maintainance. About 2 inches shorter than normal so knee brace didnt stick into boot top. Fit seems to be true to size. Quality is typical Gaerne, excellent!
Additional Comments On Jul 05, 2011: Lightweight n easy to walk in.
