Falco Marshall Leather Boots - Brown

These boots are nice boots to wear and use on the bike but are not waterproof as advertised. They should be removed from the 'waterproof' section . I had used the earlier design of this boot since 2019, and found they were waterproof until this year when they started to leak . I liked the boot so just wanted a replacement. These newer boots did not keep the rain out on the first day of use. I returned them. If you do order any then I found they fit a bit tight so needed a size bigger.

Although initially pleased with my purchase, my low score reflects the poor performance in wet weather. Bought as my winter go to boots, they leaked badly during a summer trip to Sweden. Boasting a waterproof membrane and an apparently robust construction, I had expected much better! Having returned the boots to SBS I was also disappointed to see no physical signs of testing and no report to explain which testing criteria had been used. I realise that not all membranes approach the performance of Goretex and Event but if advertised as waterproof then I would expect the first years performance to reflect these claims!
This is my first complaint however and I have been using SBS for many years, and will continue to do so!

Great ankle boot, well made and comfortable on and off my Bike. good construction/protection particularly around the ankles, heals and gear change area

These boots were comfortable from the start and the fit is great. I've already used these boots on a 400 mile round trip with no problems.

These were a recommendation and so glad they got recommended, they feel really secure on and get a good range of moment and with the fact they are fully waterproof is a bonus. worn these for a 12 hour ride with a bit of walking and felt like I just had normal trainers on

This is my second pair and I have worn them constantly, the easiest boots to live with, I have large calves, very wide feet and a high instep so higher leg boots are often uncomfortable for me. These I wore all the way from Portsmouth down through France and Spain over two days 1500 miles with no problems. I also wore them on a 3000 mile tour to Austria/Italy again brilliant!
