Best mx boot?

[Balaz_73*00]

My birthdays right around the corner and my parents are gona get me some new boots but I just dont know exactly what I want. Im leaning towards garne sg12s or some type of Astars. What are you guys running and what are your opinions? Thanks in advance

[dehner47]

ive run Astars damn near my whole life. and they are awesome boots. but i finally ventured away from Astars and went with a pair of Garne SG10's.. and believe when i tell you, they are the best boot out on the market in my opinion. expensive yes, but well worth the money. feels like your wearing sneakers while riding. comfertable, great support, good flexability and they look bad@$$ as well. i rock the white ones and yes they get dirt fast, but a brillow pad and some scrubbing, they return to new everytime..

the most comfortable boot i have ever worn are made by AXO they are just like Astar's basically except a fair amount cheaper. I'm sponsored by them and they work really well with you too. But they are by far the best boot i've ever worn. So check them out for sure

[Fear250r]

I also have the SG10's. Just like dehner said, they are awesome. Very comfortable and broke in real easy.

With that said, I think
gona go with gaerne's. My bro wears gaerne's and raves about them as well. Im so ready to upgrade from the freebie promo msr boots I got when we bought one of our ltrs. Beem sportn those for 2 years! Thanks for the quick imput

^^^ you will be happy with your decision...

PS: Happy Birthday by the way. whenever it is..

I got a pair of A-star tech 10s earlier this year and like them a lot, but I wished I could have tried on a pair of Garne boots and also I wanted to try on a pair of Sidi boots.
I couldn't find a shop anywhere nearby that carried the boots though.

[dehner47]

SIDI is another amazing boot company. very pricy, but what else would you expect from an Italian company. Sidi boots are well worht the $$ in my eyes. cause lets be all honest here.. its not all about function and protection. they must look good as well. so if you can match protection, with funtion and add a bit of style to it, people will spend whatever it cost to get that product. and in my eyes, Astars, Sidi and Garnes are hands down the best boot witht he best protection on the market..

Like the others said.. I have a pair of gaerne sg10s and love them.

[YFZ-FoFiddy-TC]

Sidi Crossfire hands down

best is going to depend on each person opinion, get any decent boot and you should be happy with it

Thanks Dehner!

[ricksmx865]

good choice!!


I've got 2 pair of SG 10's Love em!! very solid boot

[HondaRacing83]

i love my quadrants!theyre stylish,protect well0,and there OK on comfortability all around a really good boot and there like what $150?

[99400esex]

Fox comp 5 boots are what I use and they work great, I love alpines but there way way too expensive

[TWISTED]

I personally love my SIDI's but I believe any of the hinged boots are your best bet......

Well said. With boots they can be expensive but you pretty much get what you pay for.

I rock the original Alpinestars Tech 8's in white. I love these boots, I just think they are a classic. Nice support, look great, but a little on the heavy side. Boot technology has come a long way though, the Sidi Crossfires and Gaerne SG10's are also hard to beat.

Thanks for all the replies! I ended up orderin Black ones, I really wanted white and thats all Ive ever wore but I just didnt want them to get stained up..I tend to be a little lazy when it comes to cleanin boots. I hope they look good

[Fear250r]

Black ones look great. That's what I have. I also didn't go with white just because I didn't want them getting stained and nasty looking.

so hes a liar cause he likes a boot you "demolished" your ankle in?? ive gotten concussions wearing Shoei helmets.. does that mean Shoei helmets suck???

[Muzzgit]

I just upgraded from Oneal Element to Sidi Crossfire SRS.

I wish I had bought the SIDI years ago. They are very comfortable straight out of the box, shifting gears is easier and they don't rub the side of my ankles.

Worth every cent in my opinion.

[KXRida]

Never got a change to wear the sg12's but if they're anything like the sg10's they're and awesome boot. I ran tech 10's for a while and really liked them. Mainly for the support internally. I still have a pair or two of sg10's laying around somewhere if I ever decide to get back into riding again.

[Balaz_73*00]

Shizzzzzam! They feel amazing! I cant wait to ride in em

No,you were prob wearing a little to big of a boot.i have really big feet for my age,my shoe size is a size 12,i wear size 11 quadrants.ive still got about 1/2-1/4 of toe space and it fits my ankles very snug,i love the alloy brackets-way better then them stupid plastic strap things,good calf guard.i was jumping my 400 about 3 weeks ago,overshot the landing by about like 15feet,hurt my wrists,but my ankles were fine,before my quadrants i had some old, oversized axo's/regular shoes,if i would have been wearing either the shoes or axo's id have 2 broken ankles.the quadrants saved my ankles.i hit so hard my shocks bottomed out,,skid plate hit the ground-and somehow my quad ended up in neutral.now there is no doubt the sidi's or gaerne's or alpinestars are better but i will stand by quadrants,cheap affordable,stylish protective boots-i love them(btw i dont have the atv quadrants,i have the mx ones,but i believe the only difference is the sole?)
