Gaerne Jett Boots

Does anyone have any experience with Gaerne boots? I am looking at slowly increasing my safety gear and would like to find a set of boots that offer protection and are still comfortable to walk around in when I get off the bike.

I have no experience with their street boots but I do know there motocross/dirt boots definitely rank up there in quality. I would think a company with an off-road boot rep. like they do would have good quality street boots as well (like A-stars does). Hopefully you can find someone with an actual experience with the boots though for an opinion.

I have a pair of Gaerne ST Dry boots - http://gaerne.ridesh...;products_id=27 . Very nice boots, great quality and comfort for walking once broken in. They have not been tested in the rain yet but have a waterproof lining.

Have the ST boots also from newenough.com for 99.00 when they were available. They were supposed to have a waterproof liner, but mine did get wet during the last big rain I rode in,...on one foot. Go figure. :blink:

I have Gaerne 'Espresso' boots, they're a Lorica/leather waterproof touring boot.

I mainly bought them for off-bike comfort, easy to walk in and could wear them all day (I've worn them to work on days where I was riding somewhere after work).

Pretty happy with them, I'd buy Gaerne again.

Thanks for the replies. I may grab a pair of the Jet boots, I like the shorter boots, and if I can wear them around when I reach my destinations, all the better. How is the fit on them? Due they run fairly true to size?

Mine were true to size. :thumbsup:

RE. sizing, mine are snug but that could be my bad (I bought a heap of gear at once so was pretty excited, might have overlooked the correct sizing :salesman: )

Will check tonight and write again.
