are they water proof?

[ashf00t]

@bladedancer111 the boots? Well they are to a point. I was in a downpour last week and the only clothing that was dry were my socks! But if you ride longer than an hour in rain they usually start to seep in water.

Hey, I'm not sure if you actually say this in the video, but are those men's Sidi boots? I've been looking at the women's Vertigo Lei ones for a while--is that what you've got? Unfortunately its pink-ish style is the only one available online and I don't know how much I'd like that haha...

[ashf00t]

Oh ya I guess I didn't say it in the video. They are the men size 38 euro

Thanks for a nice review on those boots (I love the Toe pointing technique toward the end).

I can't see how it matters if you use mens gear as long as they fit and work well. I learned a new phrase from this 'Monkey Butt'.. excellent - Thanks again for the nice review.

Keep Safe.

If they wear out they wear out..... my driving school teach rides hard and his are 2 or 3 years old and look like new... depends how you treat you equipment.. and if they do i will buy new ones or have them resoled

@e30Birdy thanks birdy, I was worried about the width, I was gonna get the SIDI Mega goretex cuz its wider but I'll stick with the Vertigo now. But have you seen the video "Sidi boots worn out after a year of use" it shows the sole worn out, are the soles replaceable on the vertigo? I don't race right now so It should be ok.

For sure a 11, Sidi boots run small.. i wear a 43 in euro and got a 44 which is the equiv of what you would be getting.

I have a lot of problems in shoes too cause i have wider feet and the sidis feet like a charm. My little toe is crushed in normal shoes unless i wear like k-swiss.

I cant tell you about it yet cause when i got mine it was already cold as hell, i didnt wanna get perforated ones incase i get stuck on a colder day or its rainy. My buddy rides non perfd ones and no problems.
