Using them on moto touring Europe for about 3years now. Excellent air flow to combat the sweat in the summer, even with high temperatures. You can feel the cooling effect as soon as you reach an open road. Easy for walk leaving the steeper inclines for other foot ware due to smooth sole with a little grip on the dirt. Not water proofed though (overshoes for inclement weather ready in the backpack) or easy to put them on. The opening is quite small requiring a little more effort to lose up the laces. No pad for the gear stick so the rubbing is visible. Due to the perforation, definitely not for cold rides. Otherwise, really comfortable boots. If you looking for a wide fitting and an air flow, the pair of these in the summer season will make you smile.
