Advice & Guides 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...
Customers consistently praise these boots for their comfort, durability, and stylish appearance. Notable features include quality construction, with a commando sole providing excellent grip, and robust design suitable for both biking and walking. While some customers mention initial tightness around the calves and shin rubbing, this typically resolves with wear and the use of long socks. The boots maintain a classic style, fitting seamlessly with various outfits, and their waterproof capabilities are anticipated positively. Overall, these boots are highly recommended for their combination of style and practicality.
Ever since I started riding 8 years ago I’ve been wanting to get a pair of waterproof boots, as my motorcycle is my only mode of transport and I ride all year round. It wasn’t such a pressing concern the first few years as I was living in London at the time. However, since leaving London 4 years ago and swapping my Triumph Bonneville for a sports tourer that could give me the protection for wetter winter weather, the need became a bit more pressing.
As I’m a fan of the retro biker look my first ever pair of boots were from TCX. I found them extremely comfortable and hardy. However, after continuous daily use (including through several winters), they eventually needed replacing. Short-term I went with a similar looking pair from Spada as a quick and easy budget option. While they are still perfectly fine for dry weather, I am doing a lot more travelling for work now so really need boots that are fully waterproof. Enter these boots from TCX.
Looking at other reviews I agree wholeheartedly that they are instantly comfortable right out of the box. No issues with them at all. A common complaint seems to be around the top of the boot rubbing on the shin. I have invested in hiking sorts from Mountain Warehouse to wear when riding. These socks come far enough up the shin that I can’t feel any rubbing on my shin. So that addressed that issue.
I found it curious that some people also stated they found barely enough space to tuck their jeans inside the boot. However, my Wesie Tundra jeans are close fitting meaning I had no trouble tucking them in. However, I also had no issue with my other riding jeans (combat jeans) being pulled over the boots either. So, for me, best of both worlds.
The boots are just as comfortable off the bike as they are when riding. Initially they feel chunky when walking around out of the box. However, after a ride and getting off the bike to walk around, they felt totally normal.
Because of the long zip they are very easy to put on and take off. As it’s currently summer I have not had the opportunity to test their waterproof capabilities yet, but from all the reviews I’ve read, I have nothing to worry about. Size wise, I am a size 10 (eur 44) and these fit me perfectly. I hope once broken in they will remain as comfortable when I wear my thicker socks in the winter. But time will tell.
All-in-all, a great boot for the money, coupled with the usual amazing service from Sportsbikeshop. Highly recommended.
With my advancing age and reduced mobility I needed a pair of quality boots which I could easily put on and take off. These fitted the bill 100% as side zips so no complicated laces, clips etc. They are not cheap but should see me out of my biking days!!
The choice in shades
עמיד מאוד נוח לרכיבה כל אופנוע מגף פשוט מושלם !!! מגף חלומי ! איכותי מאוד
Great fit, went for usual shoe size & it was perfect, comfortable and ideal for riding then walking then riding.
Fantastic boots very well made, highly recommended.
Very comfortable but take a while to get used to if you normally wear a shorter boot. The heel feels quite chunky, probably because I'm used to a shorter flat soled boot so it sometimes catches on the foot rest when trying to change up. They feel well made so I'm sure I'll like them more the longer I ride in them. Good price too.
Super comfortable straight out of the box and excellent quality. The fit is absolutely spot on and sizing is accurate. Great service from sportsbikeshop.
Very nice quality. Look great. I would recommend just going for your normal size. I read a few other reviews recommending go a size up which I did and I think my usual size would have been fine.
These are comfy from the box but you may need long socks as the front may rub your shins until they break in, size is spot on, I usually buy 43 and got a 43 in these and fit is perfect, My jeans easily fit over the boots. No rain yet so can't comment on waterproof side of things but have no reason to doubt TCX. Overall quality boot and I am very happy with my purchase and the excellent service from SBS
easy to put on and take off, Zip and velcro . look good not as heavy as expected,so can wear all day. great price too good value for money
Great boots. Felt like slippers out the box. A little tight when new getting my foot in but once it was seated you wouldn’t know.
Does exactly what I wanted. Comfortable on the bike And comfortable to walk in. Also thay look good especially with a pair of Riding jeans.
And it goes without saying the usual excellent service from the staff at the Sportsbikeshop Harlow.
I feel like Robocop walking around in these. Great with a pair of riding jeans, blue or black. Stylish, comfy, waterproof and endurable. Feel like I can hike up a mountain with these on and then climb on the bike and ride down.
My second pair of TCX and still the best quality boots on the market. I'm a 9 and they're a nice all round fit. If your sometimes a half size then go the size up.
Nice warm and comfortable straight out of the box.
Size was perfect, they look good on and off the bike, not tested in really heavy rain yet but have every confidence that they will be waterproof as others have said.
The usual excellent service from Sportsbike Shop. Ordered lunchtime arrived next day !
I get most of my gear from them now as the prices are good and customer service is excellent.
I love these boots! They are comfortable from the start and warm enough for the coldest winter day. They are superbly well constructed with all the armour and strength I need. I love the classic 'engineer boots' style and the proper sole that works as well off the bike as on. If anything they could do with a bit more padding around the top edge as they rub on your shins a little when new, but nothing worth crying about and soon softens up with use. I have had loads of compliments about the boots and they are getting even better with age. I would definitely recommend them.
