Great for warmer rides
25 July 2025 by Alan D
Very comfy straight from the box and true to the advertised size. First ride was in the 27° heatwave and immediately felt the cooler air flowing through. Not really done any walking in them, but think they’d be ok for a couple of miles, along the seafront for example. Never quite sure why the laces have to be ultra long on these style of boots, but the excess is easily tucked away behind the Velcro strap. In short, great summer riding footwear that stop your feet from cooking on the really hot days.

Stylish...Comfortable...Plenty of Air Flow
18 July 2021 by Haraen
1st thing....SBS...Thanks a million for your amazing customer service, fast delivery and best prices.
I'm UK size 8 (EU 42). These boots fits true to size. I wore these boots in 30 degrees with summer socks and the air flow was amazing. It kept my feet cool.
The performance is excellent. Good tactile feeling on the pegs, gear and rear brake levers. The soles are not too thick nor too thin. It's perfect for local runs.
Protection is excellent. It has decent protection all around for commuting, local runs and chilled out rides. If you commute to work on a dry day then you won't need to carry 2nd pair of shoes. These are brilliant to wear all day on and off the bike.
Quality is excellent. The stitching, materials, inside soles, laces, velcro....all feel of good quality and robust.
If I have to complain about anything then...the laces kept getting caught in the velcro when doing them up. But on the plus side, that's a good thing too because once you tuck those laces behind the velcro....the laces will sit tight.
Overall....it's an amazing boots for SUMMER, HOT DAYS. I enjoyed the cooling effect from the air flow. I'm very happy with my purchase.
Thanking you all kindly
