3 Important things to think about When buying Womens Motorcycle Boots.
There at least 3 factors to take into account when purchasing your biker boots.
First, the boot should meet or exceed the need for protection and safety.
Buy a well made boot – preferably stitched and glued, not just glued – from a reliable manufacturer who specialises in motorcycle boots.. Harley Davidson, Sidi, TCX, Alpinestars and Probiker are a few names that come to mind. Some local suppliers are listed here.
There are actually so many excellent suppliers out there that I can’t name them all for lack of space.
What I do know is that it’s generally foolish to buy a pair of motorcycle boots from the local shoe store or Walmart-type store. . They simply will not stand up to the rigours of biking or give you the protection you need. Start by looking at what the motorcycle dealers are selling. Consult people with a lot of riding miles under their belt.
Second, buy a comfortable pair of boots.. There are a few considerations when it comes to comfort including overall fit, pinch points and stiffness. There is nothing worse than having your feet burning or cramping up on a long ride.
It’s non-slip rubber soles for me, on my cruiser. They are generally more comfortable and will not slip when you put your foot down at a stop.
I have always adopted a policy of purchasing the boot that fitted snugly in the shop as I find they tend to stretch a bit after wearing them for a while. I’m talking about leather boots here of course. The synthetic materials will not stretch like leather does. In the shops my boots are always a bit tight – on the verge of being too uncomfortable. Then after some time when they’ve deformed a bit and softened somewhat, they fit like a glove.
Third, buy the boot that suits you style-wise. This must be the last thought.
It’s great to look fashionable and you need not sacrifice safety and comfort because there are so many fabulous boots out there that will give you the style and design you love and provide the safety and comfort you must have.
It’s probably obvious but you must match your boot style to your ride. Cruiser style boots are usually quite traditional in their styling. Motocross and racing boots are distinctive. You would look really silly wearing motocross style boots on a Harley Fatboy.
The choice of lace-up or zip-up is a personal choice and it depends a bit on comfort and style but also convenience. It’s a bit more of a hassle to put on and take off a laced boot. Also the lace style is obviously not as watertight as a boot that zips up. I prefer a boot that zips along the whole height of the boot and there must be a kind of ‘fold-under’ flap of leather behind the zipper to improve watertightness.
Quality motorcycle boots can be quite expensive but are usually worth every penny and will pay back the investment you make with long years of service and wear. Buy the best boots you can afford and look after them well and they will look after you.
