    I wear the Axo Titan boot during cold and/or wet weather 2009 AXO Titan WP Boots, but I'm looking for a cooler set for summer. Does anyone have any recommendations?

    I wear Sidi racing boots. They are light, comfortable, fit under my Fieldsheer riding pants and over my Spyke racing leathers on track days. Just love em!

    I wear my trusty old Black Alpinestars S-MX 2 boots. Snug and comfy on my feet.
    Currently saving my pennies for either a pair of Alpinestars S-MX R boots or S-MX PLUS Racing boots.
    In Red/Black of course! :cool:

    EDIT: Oops....Sorry Andrew,my bad,forgot to add the pics.:redface:

    S-MX 2 boots.

    I ride with the Alpinestars SMX-5 boots. Great everyday boot and very comfortable (if a bit warm) to walk around in. There are days that I never take them off at work. For some reason I tend to shy away from Alpinestars products, but the boots were a good pick.

    I found my Alpinestars SMX-3 Boots on eBay about a year ago and I love them! Comfy, good looking, and they saved my right foot during my run in with a deer last fall (see pic for hoof scuff)! I wouldn't trust my feet to anything else.

    I'm looking at these Vega's, they rate well and are only $100 or at least that's how I will justify it.

    For custom made boots try Dehners in Omaha, NE . Made in The USA from American cows. No wild colors or labels on the outside. Sorry. To compensate I wear Burger King skivvies. "Home of the Whopper."

    There are some boots on the market that are more form over function and IMO are of the "Minnie Pearl" variety. Not especially a plug for the Dehners but these are the same folks who make the high boots favored by many motor officers in the US, military and test pilots. A little gruesome but sometimes all that is left when a high performance bird augers in is the pilot's feet. Yep, pilots are footprinted.

    I have a pair of TCX Competizione S that I wear about 85% of the time. All other times, I wear my USAF Goretex flight boots. I am picking up a pair of TCX Infinity shortly.

    I have a pair of Alpinestar SMX-Rs and a pair of Vendramini Marathon Ss and although I like both the AStars don't even come close to the Vendramini boots when it comes to comfort and the Vendraminis are waterproof. I never forget I have boots on when I ride with the AStars but I do when I ride with the Vendraminis.

    I have Sidi B2. Had them for a couple years and are very comfy. I would get them again.

    TCX Infinity Goretex

    Taller than I'm used to, but offer a lot of protection. Still getting used to shifting because it's a very tall toe box. Not too tall, just taller than I'm used to. Pretty comfortable for walking when off the bike considering how stout they are. I think they'll last forever. I'll probably get some racing boots when I start to do some track days.
