The boot was stiff at first, but once broken in fits and feels great. Leather lining feels good, excellent traction on loose gravel when putting feet down off a motorcycle.

I find myself choosing these boots when riding my dresser, I am confident of the foot grip, even when loose stones or dirt are on pavement where other boots slip. For my lighter bike, smoother bottom boots are fine, but for the heavy one, this is the boot of choice

I bought these boots after much searching for a riding boot that would protect my feet while riding my Harley, and be comfortable walking around when I reach my destination. Red Wing has accomplished both! [...]. I would definately buy from them again!
