Good Trail Riding Boots

[Neil JohnsonMember]

Hi All,

Just chasing suggestions for boots, as the ones I’ve got aren’t working out.

I’ve got those ONeal $180 buck boots in a US size 11 (I’m Oz 10) which fit fine other than being way too small around the calves.

I’ve got the top strap extended fully and can still only barely push the clip over.

Luckily I’ve got a skinny legged size 10 kid who can wear them, so I’m up for a replacement.

Any suggestions?

I’m only trail riding, not racing.

Something with tread would be good as I come off often, and need to pick up the bike etc halfway up hills and wotnot.

Cheers,

OK…

I screwed that up fully and put it in the wrong place.

Can this post me moved (please)?

Cheers mate,

Yep, I could’ve searched a bit better first and noticed that one soon after (I’d had a few beers).

Seriously considering the “gay’uns”

Ask Wolfie, he has a good set of used Fox Adventure boots. Pre loved and pre stretched. They feel like ugg boots, super comfortable. Offer as much protection as a wet Rabbito’s sock.

Ended up going with Gaerne SG10’s.

Pretty comfortable.

Checked out the SG 12 as well which had more ankle support, but seemed to have a higher heel position that I wasn’t comfortable with.

Taking them for a spin in the morning to see how they go.

Gaerne SG10’s are excellent!

Thoroughly recommend them for comfort and useability.
