Thought it was about time I had some new boots, my Alpine star touring boots don't offer that much ankle protection, and after my little woopsy (I held it up though) in the Domain tunnel, they busted apart at the seams, and considering they didn't come in contact with the road, I am very disappointed in them. So, I lashed out and gave myself an early Christmas present.
We only had one pair in stock at work, low and behold they fit me perfectly.
I almost had to take out a mortgage on the house to pay for them, but considering I get a hefty staff discount(cost price) I snapped them up.
They are a bit strange to ride in at present, putting the sidestand down is dicey and requires extra effort. I wore them all day at work yesterday. I've been out in them riding for a few hours today, I reckon they will be fully broken in by the weekend. They are comfy enough after 10 hours at work that I wont need to take extra shoes when I go to GP or WSBK at PI.
But, the best bit is... they look very cool
