Articulated MX Boots
My normal road boots are not adequate for technical riding. I find that hours of standing on the pegs wear out my feet, ankles and calves. MX boots seem to be the answer to this but they are too difficult to walk in (as one invariably do).
My old road boots are comfy and light but offer no real protection against cars ramming me from the side or the bike pinning me to the ground.
An alternative is to get MX boots with hinged ankles. Three boots come to mind. BMW Rallye boots, Sidi Flex Force and Gearne iforgetwhat. Does anyone have any experience with such boots? Do they wear in well? Do I really need them?
I can’t afford to buy them just to experiment (expensive) and the shop won’t loan me any for the weekend (understandable).
