Need help with boots!
 

I cant remember the brand of boots, but I am looking for a pair of race boots, they have the ratchet gadget on the back to tighten them once they are zipped. Can anyone remember the make and model of these or point me in the right direction?

Asshole. Do those look like race boots?

I thought the Sidi boots had the ratcheting calf parts?

What you describe sounds like Alpinestar SMX-plus boots. Those are the ones I have. They have a pullstring, then zip them up, and then ratchet on the side.

Perfect, thats exactly what Im looking for! Thank you!

I'd be racing to the bedroom with you if I saw you in those. ;)

Hey Rae, speaking of thigh hi boots, looks like you don't have to go far to find them!

Agreed!

Sidi Vertigo have a calf adjuster (this is even the female version)

Thanks Phoenix! Now if only they made the ones I liked in small enough sizes and UNDER $400!

Found these on Ebay, I may splurge and get them.

Those boots look pretty racy to me. :lol

Chi....have you considered TCX boots? I picked up a pair for $200 and am really impressed with the quality and ankle protection. No ratchet but they are small in the calf if that's what you're worried about.

I think I looked at some last night, I honestly cant remember. Im not worried about the small calf so much as keeping them shut, both in street riding and track with boots over my leathers. My current pair (beat to hell and back) wont stay closed and they are only a zip up with a flap that folds over.

I'll check them out tho, thank you!

Sounds like my current A* boots. Damn velcro is worn the fuck out. Barely stays closed anymore.

Good boots for the $$.

If they have your size, you're in luck!
I think those are the one's your thinking of with the ratcheting calf thingy...

SIDI Vertigo's - can't beat 'em! :rockwoot:

Great deal but none in my size and I abhor red...Im looking for a black and white pair, matches the leathers and the bike.

There were ridiculous deals on white/black Vertigos a while back. They'd match your leathers perfect :lol: Still some white/red on there, but only larger sizes.

Hey Rae, those white A-stars the you posted up about are the exact same model as what I had when I was visiting.

We may not share any other attributes but we both sure love white/black gear!!!

Why's it always gotta be a black/white thing?! Racists!

:lol:

I know, no calf strap but these are comfy - at least the SMX-4 are...Erik loves his as I love mine.

I like it too.

Theres just something clean and precise about the black and white. A bitch to clean sometimes, but worth it if its the right stuff.

She was black as the night. He was whiter than white.

I dig black boots. Unless they're red or yellow and then I'd dig red boots or yellow boots.

Rae you might have been thinking of my sidi's from the rally last year. Phenix Rider posted them I have the Sidi Vertigo Lei's
