Pinkie and I just got some 5.11 A.T.A.C. Storm Waterproof boots. We haven't worn them riding, but they are comfortable and at $100 a pair, pretty reasonable.

You can get them here www.chiefsupply.com

:indian_chief:
That's a nice looking boot I'd be interested in knowing how waterproof they end up being. Always wondered about the boots that claimed to be waterproof but weren't all leather, and had side zippers. :nixweiss: We just switched over to 5.11 Tactical Pants for our uniform. More pockets to stuff things in then you can imagine. ;D

OK - I seem to be out of kilter here.... I have not even heard of some of these boot makes, but my favourite is the Urban Daytona boot. Ok, bit expensive, but serious quality heavy Leather (German made I think) & still with some flexibility. They are pull on, so no side areas to leak in the rain. I went for these because I ride my bike daily, whatever the weather. I needed a boot that could take the wet-weather punishment. OK, a 220MI trip in lashing rain left my feet a bit cold, but not wet!!

SITE SPEC:
Gore-Tex® waterproof and breathable membrane. Touring boot made of full cowhide with textile lining. Shinbone and ankle protection. Gore-Tex® waterproof and breathable membrane.

Hope this of some help!

I am on my second pair of TourMaster WP Road Boot.  They do not get hot in the summer, are waterproof and offer good protection.  You can walk in them all day because of the cushioning effect of the sole construction.

I like the Rocky Boots, they make a line of service or tactical type boots. I wear the gortex version most of the time. They have proven to remain dry when riding in the rain. If you don't have your rain pants on they will fill up and hold water for later too. In the heat of summer I usually just opt for the traditional jungle boot, drys quick if it gets wet. One source for Rocky's, www.tacboots.com or any local outdoor store.

CruiserWorks.  I wear them all winter too even though I'm not riding.  Most comfortable boot I've found and waterproof too.  It's nice to ride in the rain and get off and your feet are still dry. I don't take any extra shoes with me when I travel and these are always comfortable to wear all evening even after wearing them all day.  Heck, one of our friends even wore his to the beach with his shorts!!  Didn't look really cool but his wife didn't have to worry about him trying to pick up women :P
