Which on of those 2 ? :-) i'm really hesitating which one is better... 90% road (paved) trips and some walking 10% offload soft / light; Need one pair to use while bike touring riding and travelling which one ?
This boot should last for years. I have only had these a short period but I just got back from a 3 day ride. They are comfortable when worn for most of the day. Standing on pegs they are just stiff enough but easy to walk in. No time needed for breaking in but they will even be more comfortable once they are like with any boot. Only 4 stars because only had boot short time and buckles made of plastic see how they hold up.
I have had these boots for about 4 years (purchased from Atomic Moto) and worn them in all kinds of conditions...rain hot mud pavement walking around street riding and adventure touring. They have held up great and are still waterproof. These boots are flexible enough to give excellent ankle movement but offer good support and protection. With that great movement though comes the sacrifice of the support for more heavy duty off road use that you might get from a full MX boot. These were a great compromise between those MX boots and something like a Danner work boot.
Replaced my tech 10s with the Sg22s. By far the best boot I’ve had right out of the box and the option for half sizes is nice. Atomic moto was a great company to deal with and I will be making my next purchase with them.
Haven’t ridden in them or broken them in, yet but they feel good, so far. Boots look great as well. Quality built.
Wide enough toe box for me (I wear 11.5EE) in shoes. Went with the size 11 and they feel good, even with my custom insoles.
Cannot wait to break them in!
Straight out of the box, great fit. Ordered same size at my Gaerne Fastback boots. So far they are perfect walking around in the house. Will be able to ride in them after Christmas!
