boots of choice

Post by Don Detloff » Wed Aug 23, 2000 2:33 pm

I'm using Rocky black lace up hunting boots. They look like jump boots They are lined with Gore-Tex and Thinsulate so they are dry and warm. The best part was they cost $99.99 at the local Army-Navy surplus store. MI Don

[dsn_klr650] boots of choice

Post by Jim Cunningham » Wed Aug 23, 2000 3:02 pm

For all you guys that don't need the fancy expensive boots, I have a pair of Caterpillar work boots I got from a local farm store for $50 that are great for road and off road. They are super rugged, have steel toes, water resistant and are pretty comfortable. The are Black and have a big yellow Caterpillar logo on the back of the boot that either looks super nerdy or cool depending on your perspective. -----Original Message----- From: Bill E Goat [mailto:monahanwb@...] Sent: Wednesday, August 23, 2000 13:26 PM To: DSN_klr650@egroups.com Subject: [DSN_klr650] Boots of Choice Mine are the Sidi Sympatex On-Roads. They're made in Italy, super comfortable, great for walking, and totally waterproof. I know they're not the right protection for the MX type guys, but then I am a backroad tourer who needs comfort and waterproof doesn't hurt for water crossings, either. I need something that I can wear for days on the bike and remain comfortable. These are the ones, I think they cost about $240 nowadays. The Idaho 11-day backroad tour this summer once again proved their worth.
