Merlin Adana D3O Leather Boots - Black

Great boots. Incredibly well made with quality thick leather, good stitching. Flex is under the balls of the foot - so I assume a shank of some description . Sizing is good for me. I'm a wide 8.5 and I bought the size 9 / 43 and they fit well with the length making up for the width. However… the ankle flex is limited for shifting due to the thick leather (for my BMW f800st) but ymmv on a more upright bike. Also on mine the hard ankle armour sits close / under to the clasp, causing it to cut into my ankle when walking. It's heartbreaking as they are so good otherwise. Definitely try before you buy and walk around the shop. 5* for quality but fit is everything

Early days, but loving these boots that I got for a forthcoming month-long bike tour of Europe.
Really well constructed and look like they'll offer great protection.
They're fairly stiff at the moment - as you'd expect - but should soften with wear.

These are good quality offering good protection. Boots are stiff yet comfortable to walk in. Had to adjust gear change height to accommodate. Not had a chance to test waterproof claims but quality suggests this should be no problem. Calf is plenty wide enough to go over or under leathers and my calves are not slender which had previously kept me to short Boots.

I wanted a high boot with good protection and waterproof, but not too much of an adventure style.
These Merlin Boots ticked all the boxes, excellent quality and price.

Well made fast DPD delivery very good customer service after I ordered too small …. Due to a slightly misleading size chart

Little bit stiff on the gear change but might loosen up, comfy when walking, not been out in the wet yet.
