These boots are made for walking ...
Hi all,
I understand that adventure riding is filled with a world of compromises. I'm wondering what are your thoughts on boots. I've been trying to find a pair of boots that would offer reasonable protection while riding and could also double as a good pair of hiking boots.
My criteria are:
- Good foot, ankle and shin protection
- Gortex, waterproof
- Sole stiff enough for off-road upright riding, but supple enough to hike several kilometers.
Klim offer the Outlander GTX Boots, but they seem to be too short for my taste. If they were at least 8 or 9 inches high, I would consider trying them.
What are your thoughts on this subject?
