Hey gang - my last pair of boots that I bought for the MSF finally wore out. They were cheap boots from Walmart and they served their purpose (requirement for riding and MSF). I want to now get something better for ankle protection but I also want something that is great for all day walking.

My main criteria is price - as a student buying a pair of A*s isn't really practical as well thats grocery money. Also they should be comfy for walking. I've tried the SMX series and those full length boots your foot is like a cast which is great for protection horrible for walking.

So if you guys/gals can help me find a pair of boots at like max of $100 with adequate ankle protection for street riding be it used/ebay/blowout deals etc that would be awesome. Btw I am a size EU 46 or US 11.5.

I am constantly scanning for boots but it just gets nuts as prices are really high. I know I should invest more but right now I really cant and would rather get something vs. wearing basketball shoes.

I've found out about Setup Visions which I can get for my price, new Oxtar Evo RX boots or Icons. Which would you recommend? The oxtars are definitely awesome but is wearing a full race boot for a day at university really that comfy? Is it something insoles could cover or is it just too much?

My main concern in any boot is combo of comfort while walking/safety/fit.

Thanks

problem you've probably already found is the more protection they offer the less comfortable they'll be while walking. something like these might be decent TCX X-Cube All Purpose Motorcycle Boot :: New Enough, LTD they're just over your price though.
