I haven't had to have a pair of steel toed boots in a long time and the ones that I had then were just to get me by(generic walmart crap more than likely). I'm needing to get a decent pair that will last me awhile but won't break the bank(<$250 preferred).

I'm looking for:

  • -Water proof
  • -Slip resistent
  • -Safety toe (Is composite good?)
  • -Oil resistant
  • -Prefer 8" height
  • -Flexible(kneeling to standing)

There's a good amount brands, types and opinions out there but what's your guys experience with? Seems like Redwing is about the go to for mid-high range boots.

I've heard about these and next time I buy a pair of riding boots I think this might be the brand.

For motor cycle? Get Riding boots that supports your ankle.

I've low sided on my bike on trail... I was wearing mx boots tho. Slid like 20 feet with my foot/leg stuck underneath didn't feel a thing.

Lucky I didn't fuck up my knee from twisting.

Love them mx boots, I'd feel comfortable having a car drive over my feet wearing them.

But yeah get proper riding boots that at least go past your ankle up your calf. Just put your jeans over them.

I was out fucking around offroad and had a kickstand pin my ankle to the ground. I'll get a set of mx boots at some point for sure.
