I am considering buy these boots. I am looking for feedback or comments form anyone who has them. They are a bit difficult to find out there. I need an 11 in Red preferably. I have a Speedmaster jacket and gloves at this point, in Red. My VFR is a Red 2001.

Any other brands that might go and are as good or better?

Google found several places that claimed to have them.

You might try this if you are willing to consider another brand.

They have limited quantities of their boots on sale.

Proper fit with boots is tricky if you can't try them on first.

Good luck.

I ended up buying a pair of Alpinestars SMX-4 boots from Motostrano. Should be here in a few days tongue.gif

I bought a pair of Setup Vision boots last Christmas and have been very pleased. Sidi quality without the Sidi price. They look a lot like the Speedmaster boot you are considering, are very comfortable, are about $50.00 less, and they come in red! Check out the motonation link in Motor_Ref's post and click on the Setup boots. I bought mine from motonation and the service was top notch.

I love my Oxtar TCS boots but they annoy me b/c they squeak. Very nice quality/fit & finish. I would also recommend SIDI and Alpinestars. IMO I prefer vents vs. waterproof, why? B/c you can buy rain gators they will keep your shins/boots bone DRY for $10 or so and just use them as you need them. My 2 cents. idea3.gif
