Review on ๐Ÿ๏ธ Gaerne Balance Oiled: Superior Quality All-Terrain Motorcycle Boots by Cesar Hubbard

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Amazing style and incredible comfort. Definitely worth a 5.

They were incredibly comfortable straight away - almost like walking on air! They are lightweight but durable and protective. The fit was perfect (I wear a 10 and ordered a size 10). I wanted vintage style boots for my retro Moto Guzzi V7 Stone and they fit me perfectly. (I know Motox street bike boots? But I like the look). They are very stylish (Italian of course) and go really well with the bike. In addition, they are comfortable and flexible enough to walk without a bike. Another thing I really liked about these boots was that I didn't have to adjust the shifter - the toe box is compact enough to easily fit underneath and shifting was a breeze. Of course there is no shift block, there is a marking on the shift lever. But it's oiled skin that leaves marks anyway, and that adds to her overall serious, rugged look. They breathe well and even though it was a warm day (low to mid 80's) my feet didn't sweat at all. They have a Drytech lining that lets sweat through but keeps water out. I haven't had a chance to test the waterproofing but given the overall high quality of these boots I believe each one has a little tag that says 'waterproof'. ." The straps were easy to adjust and worked well and the soles were nice and grippy. I am very happy with this purchase and have no complaints at all.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Very expensive
