Motorcycle boot CE markings explained
The label inside your boots will tell you about what tests they've gone through, and how they did. Here's how to decipher those labels for yourself...

Hard wearing sole, reasonable protection. Stylish.
Very comfortable, perfect for me as I don't have the facilities to change once I'm at work. Great for wearing all day. Feel like there's little compromise on the safety and nobody asks me if they're bike boots!
I purchased them only a week before a riding holiday abroad so needed to break them in quickly. They are such great looking boots I wore them as normal shoes and got so many compliments.
I didn't need to worry about the comfort side as these as the most comfortable boots I have ever owned. I have worn them 9 hours a day for a week and they have been perfect. The sizing is correct - just buy your normal size. The construction is good quality. They feel secure on my feet without being laced up super tight. Sportsbikeshop description of these boots does say they have a side access zip but they don't. They don't need it. They are easy to get on and off just with a quick loosening of the laces. I have been riding in 36° heat and these have kept my feet cool. No sweaty socks for me!
I was very dubious about these boots as they were a brand I was unsure of and such a reasonable price but I am so glad I purchased these. They are stylish, comfortable, great support and protection.
Quite impressed with these boots. They fit well to normal size and are comfortable, on and off the bike, straight out the box. The eyes for the laces are a bit rough and they really should have gear change protection. Overall, this is my second pair of Spirit Motors' boots and both styles have been good and worth the money. Delivery to Europe-shire was flawless!
Comfortable and decent quality. Only issue is that the lace ring is a little bit rough so may need to file it down to stop the lace from ripping. But great for riding around town and good protection
These are a good choice of summer boots. (Not good with the rain)
I wish there was an extra piece of leather for the gear and may be a zipper on the side but overall I'm happy with the pair.
I was after a set of riding shoes that were comfortable & protective but also smart & practical enough, that I could jump off my bike and walk straight into work or a meeting without looking out of place. These shoes tick every box...
- Firstly the comfort, well fitting for me. I am a UK11 and so I ordered a UK11 and they fit perfectly, true to their size. Not too wide or narrow and not too long or short. Perfect fit!
- Secondly protection, no these are not the most protective boots out there, not even close. But for a set of high top type boots, I'm not sure they could be much more protective whilst keeping their other qualities. They are very well built and seem durable. The toe is hard and tough but not steel or plastic capped or uncomfortable. The ankle is thick and tough but not uncomfortable and so far I haven't got wet, cold or hot and sweaty feet in these. Having said that I haven't been in a downpour in these yet
- Smart, personally I really like the look of these boots. I got them in grey but they are also available in other colours. I suppose this is more personal preference .
- Practical, the sole is grips enough without looking like a hiking boot, the small reflective strip on the heal is a great idea, they have durable and thick laces that are easy to use and feed through the holes. The tab on the back of the shoes is strong and large enough to grab in gloves, and the boots open up enough to easily get your feet in and not have to twist and force your feet in.
Overall I have absolutely no complaints about these boots. The price is great, they meet all my needs for what I want and the service was excellent as always from Sportsbikeshop. Thank you!

Boots feel really sturdy, yet comfortable too. I was a little worried, as one felt as though it might be a bit tight for width but they do have some give and now are super comfy on and off the bike. The laces go quite high, probably to make them less likely to come off in a crash but this means they can be a bugger to remove after a few sherbets. I nearly ended up sleeping in mine.
The Boot fits comfortably yet feels robust. Easy change of gears and braking. Comfortable walking around when bike parked up.
A comfortable pair of boots, would benefit from some additional material across the left boot for gear change though. Think twice on colour as soon marked from gear change
It took me ages to find a summer boot with no waterproof lining and these do the job great, really comfortable on and off the bike. I don't know why other manufacturers put waterproof, linings in summer??.
Really comfortable, they look great too.
Ideal for summer use.
These boots are nice to wear and still feel safe on the bike. Great for summer, sizing is good and quality looks as good as anything else I had in the past
I got these for touring in the summer. They look like a trainer so can be worn all day, they look good with jeans. A comfortable fit while still giving protection.
It will be interesting to see how well they wear over time.
As the summer months are approaching, I wanted a pair of comfortable boots that didn't get too warm. Having now used them for a week or two, these boots are the comfiest boots I've ever worn. Great boots that offer comfort, protection, but don't feel too bulky. Also true to size. Excellent!!
