Sidi Adventure Boots 10 months on

[AckAckFlack]

Just thought I would share this
Ok an update on the Sidi Adventure Boot
Got mine from Santa last Xmas.

They have been worn daily for commuting and also for the offroad sessions I have done.

10/10 for comfort and ease of putting on and taking off with the buckles.
10/10 for warmth through winter far far better than any other I have used.

Now the downside....
I do polish them weekly and make sure they are relatively shiny (well they were expensive wern't they) infact they get more attention than the bikes do. As such they look like they will last for another couple of years


Sadly though the sole wears as quick as TKC tyres!
This is the left - which I put down mostly at a stop


This is the pair


The straps and buckles are replaceable but the grip I assume not

hobnails! clinkers! cleats! etc.
tapdancing is the way forward.

Hi there Mr AckAckFlack, give these guy's a ring they will resole them for you. I use them to resole my Lowa work boots and they do a really good job £60. Thats a quarter of the price of a new pair. They are only at Chesterfield, and you can take them down or they do a postal service. Also I wouldnt use polish on any waterproof leather as it tends to dry out the leather cos of the wax content, try Renapour or Leder gris really great products.
Cheers Tez

Thanks Tez for that. I am going to see what Sidi say first as they are still under 12 months old (yeh I know wear and tear)
The Feet First Shop are not that far away though so I will be able to drop them in.
Once again cheers

Gary,
Shiny Boots, Shiny Mind !
Being an ex military man myself old habits die hard, I'm the same, I keep all my boots clean & tidy & shiny.
Good luck with Sidi, look forward to reading their answer.

Feet first are very good, I've used them for several pairs of rock shoes and one of heavy duty walking boots. I'd give em a ring before taking MX boots. I'm sure they can do it though.

just looking to see if this was resolved satifactory as im thinking of buying the same boots myself and was under the impression that they were resolable.

I think putting your feet down before you stop doesn't help
Ever thought of giving up speedway
