So this is the girlz section so I"m going to be girly and show off my new boots.
Mainly because I think they are badass and thought some of the other girls on here might be interested!
They are Puma Choke Hi and they come in aray of colors, but they can be tricky to find..... So far I have seen the best deals on ebay!

I know they aren't true sportbike boots, but they have the look and are better than riding in tennis shoes:) and pretty comfy. I tested them out over the weekend on the Buffalo Run Poker Run

I bought the anthracite

The scary question PRICE? I'm guessing $300

I have Puma 500 boots and Puma quality doesn't impress me. If you were getting the 1000 maybe but those don't have good reviews either.

Puma boots are not good safety wise especially those by the pictures. Maybe for just a short trip to the store or something but in any type of accident, those boots aren't going to do much. For about $70 though, they are better than sneakers but not much better. I'd save up some money for some real boots unless you like having a stub for feet.

Nice looking boots....but I doubt they would stand up in a slide/crash. My AGV Boots got pretty tore up when I went down a while back, and they are twice as beefy as those boots. I think I paid $175 for my boots.

But...if it came down to those boots, or tennis shoes, I'd take those boots :D

Like I said......

Only if you have the matching gloves.
