What can I say?

well - I'm well pleased - the quality of the leather of these boots is second to none. :bow

- comfy
- right size - i take a 46 and they're plenty big enough
- well stylish - should go well with the Ralle2 :ymca

- price 275 Euro from FMC Moto Germany (check their web shop)

Ciao

Good sturdy looking boots there Trev. Are they waterproof?

Health to wear. :thumb2

Ahh yes, Daytona Trans Open GTX. My advice would be to try before you buy. I found that they were sized very large for their nominal sizes. They're also obviously made to fide a wide Anglo Saxon foot. If, like me, you currently wear Sidis you might well find the Daytonas to be much too wide enough. I was also disappointed that the apparent level of protection which they offer is nowhere near that of Moto X boots.

Here you go;

Delivery took 2weeks and they do C.O.D to your door.

Re. sizing, I tried a few Daytona boots on in various shops around here - nobody actually stocked the Trans Opens but I got the feel for the sizing. As I'd never bought boots mail order before I wanted to get it right first time. They fit fine so I'd say if you're a regular 43/44 whatever then they'll be fine and actually quite roomy allowing for heavier socks if you need them.

I always found Alpinestars too tight around the calves (i blame the cycling

) and was a bit reluctant. These offer mega calf area adjustability and you'd need to be well deformed to not fit nicely.

I still have them on my living room floor as I like to just look at the leather

For the money I'd say they're well worth it.

I know they cost more than the HG's but since when did that ever matter? :blast

Thanks Aidan

They're advertised as 100% waterproof and they do have a Gore-Tex liner so they should be ok - proof's in the pudding of course. Unfortunately, it looks like I''ll be testing that out soon - it is July after all

cheers for the link Trev. it's for a work mate who was thinking of getting these boots, don't know if it's good price you got them for but I'll pass the info onwards

I have the Daytona Trans Open GTX for 3 years now and they are still waterproof.

Very good quality. I hear their service is also very good if anything should be wrong with the boots. (Never had to try it)

I've got the Roadstar GTX and they are superb. Had them 2 years and are as comfy as a pair of slippers , so much so that I often forget to take them off and end up wandering around in them all day. I reckon I'm gonna wear the sole out before the leather cracks or they let in water :thumb2
