Hi Folks,

I`m getting peeved off about my waterproof trousers continually slipping up over the top of my boots & have decided to change said boots. Could someone please measure the height from the sole of their HG toureg boot to the top at the rear, I`m in a size 47, do they alter the height for different sizes? Are they quite a snug fit at the top for us lucky folk who don`t have elephantcalfitus (fat calves :D ) ? Do they look ok when wearing leathers? Supermoto look or farm yakker welly look?
Thanks :thumb

Size 46 =13.5" Probably were 14" when new.

Mine fit around my manly calves alright.

I look good in anything so the last ones hard to answer.

Would definatly say they look more supermoto than sheep worrier :eek:

Mine are 44 and same height.

Mine do look :ymca , but then that may be coz I wear a leather vest and chaps with the arse cut out on the bike; who knows, it's a tricky judgment call.

I think this thread should be locked as its getting way off topic :mmmm :eek
 
I believe that the height of the boot is known at the "shaft". I wouldn't therefore be concerned as I understand that size of shaft is not important :D

Yeah, but he's concerned that the girth might not be enough. That is important I am lead to believe...

I find the top of my boots reminiscent of a wizard's sleeve, so filling it can be quite a challenge.

Quite the opposite, I`m concerned the girth might be too much! I`ve got big feet but long skinny legs.

I`m going to have a look at some boots today :thumb
