Motorcycle boots are specific in many ways.
1. Protection up front over your shin for road debris
2. solid ankle protection
3. sometimes rain protection (gortex in mine)
4. a sole designed for traction in rain and to help with moving your bike (for instance, mine has better grip on the tippy toes)
5. usually a indentation on the soles to keep you feet in good peg position
6. shift pad
7. on racing boots, the extra protection is designed for a lowside where your front outside toes would hit first
8. They're wicked sick looking and are essential for non-squid folk
(personal choice price/quality) S-MX3
of course.... you really can't go wrong with SIDI
I went to a motorcycle shop so size me up for different brands and then went ebay!
