Daytona's are nice on your feet, available with gore-tex and they'll go with anything
I have some Toron XCR's

The TCX ones I mentioned along with some others have their own 5 page thread here: http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=136574

Very well recommended on here.

I have some Sidi Vertigo boots, they were £140 last July and I have worn them every time I have been on my bike since. I commute on the bike, so they have been worn in rain and cold (I only left the bike at home when the snow was here) and I just wear normal 'sports socks'.

No cold or wet feet so far. They took a while to wear in, but now they are very comfortable.

Sidi boots, like the ones mentioned earlier are really nice and do the trick!

I have the SMX4 and they are really comfy on the bike, wouldn't want to walk too far in them though.

Always kept my feet dry although I try not to ride in the rain if I can help it.

Seen them for around £160 I think


I had some, comfy as slippers and really waterproof till the sole chucked itself off after 5k miles.

Arlen Ness do something very similar for the same price with a better build quality.

+1 for Sidi, I got B2 goretex's last year and really like them. Think I paid £200ish at J&S. Would highly recommend as I use them for daily commute and they do hold the water out as well as giving feet 'some' breathability in sweltering heat. They were the most comfortable out of the ones I've tried too...

If you don't want a race style boot, then TCX Infinity Gortex are a great boot

My Puma boots have finally given up the ghost after 2 years and only because the bolt that's replaced the broken gear lever has worn through - new lever finally on order with eBay! Went out and tried on the TCX today - lovely looking boot, but uncomfortable on my ankles, tried some SIDIs too which were nice but settled on Alpine Star's SMX5 WP which were very comfortable in the shop. http://www.helmetcity.co.uk/Alpinest...-WP_ASLV9.aspx Looking forward to trying them out on the bike!
