I was looking for something with a casual look, practical and easy to use. I found these with a visit to Sports bike shop, trying them was easy, the staff at the Boston store could not have been more helpful. Finding what I needed and allowing me to try diferent sizes before purchasing. At first I wasnt certain, there was no pressure to buy, in fact they just said keep them on wear them for a while whilst in store, no rush. I tried using the zip, adjusting the laces, and finding the sweet spot for me. This was great as after a few adjustments, followed by around 15 minutes of walking around I had forgotten I was wearing them, the leather was softening and moulding to my feet, at this point I knew these were the boots for me, and they look great with jeans. Extremely helpful staff, very knowlegable, never pressured into a rushed purchase, I will definetly be visiting for my next clothing upgrade.
