I knew these boots looked good when, at a custom bike show, someone a lot cooler โ and a lot younger โ than me asked me what brand they were.

Made of full grain leather, with a reinforced toe and heel, plus a slim metal plate in the sole (I know this, as it showed up on the airport X-ray), the CE approved boots are fully waterproof, and come with a good-quality rubber sole that doesnโt slip around.
As I write this, Iโve just returned from over 500 miles of one of my wettest rides ever; everything got soaked. Except my feet. Iโve worn these on almost every trip now โ from cold British back-roads to scorching Canary Island loops โย theyโre always comfortable, and are just as good for walking around in (or waiting hours in airports) as they are on the bike. The X-Blends are designed with a vintage style, and as they wear they just look even better. The panels on the top of the toes protect from wear, and there are only a few very light scuffs โ the boots continue to look solid, cleaning up great with a bit of leather food.
Theyโre also available in black, and come in sizes 39-47 โย I have slightly wide feet, but these are comfortable even when worn for 12 hours or more. Thoroughly recommended.
