As with any new leathery things i buy i give them a good rub down with Renapur (look it up on google but the best prices are always at bike shows) and when they were really salty after many winter commutes gave them a wash down in the bath, let em dry naturaly and then redid the Renapur on them.

They squeaked a bit on the "spine" but a dash of WD40 soon cured that.

Also Sidi now do replacment soles for these boots so when the time comes that i've worn the soles out, as long as its in the 5yr Goretex warranty of course, i'll re-sole them.

Not cheap boots, mine cost about £180 but when you consider the 5yr Goretex warranty then its a decent price for a very good boot, imho of course.
