Well found out something interesting while trying to get new FXRG boots this month.  The FXRG-5 is no longer available to be ordered by dealers, tried several, all had the same answer.  They are no longer on Harley's boot web site either.  Only what dealers have left is out there.  The dealers can still order the FXRG-3 boot.

My FXRG-3's are four or five years old and just started leaking bad this spring.  Soles are very worn as is the uppers.

I planned to replace them with the new FXRG-5, but ended up having to get the FXRG-3's again.

They are a good boot.

5 year warranty against leaks - head to the dealer.

5 year warranty against leaks - head to the dealer.

Well just picked up the new ones two days ago.  I will check for my receipt for the other pair, if less than 5 years then I will turn the old ones in for warranty.  Not sure how much good it would do, as they are very worn, almost no tread left on front soles, and the leather shoes lots of wear.  I wore them all the time for at least 4 years.

If you bought from a dealer they should be able to find your receipt in their system.
As to age and condition, my dealer told me, didn't matter, FXRG was 5 years.

Hope it works out for you. I went to return mine and when I pulled them out of the closet it seems some furry resident (Golden #2) made a chew toy out of one of the toes.

I have several boots. One pair is the FXRG. These boots are very comforable, slip resistant and held up great in the rain. I have another pair (can't recall the brand and will have to check that out) that does well as far slippage but a hard rain will cause them the leak. I even got this pair because they were higher. Whenever I know I am riding in a lot of water I use the FXRG pair.

I bought a pair of HD Condor boots in 2010, still going strong. Before they were discontinued I bought a second pair....still in the box. Figure I'll have to break them out 4 years from now.
