You can't beat them for $70 IMHO.
Well I ordered a pair of womens Red Route Ultimate Rider jeans. Hopefully they will fit.

Now, that's what I'm talkin' about. Somehow I knew fnfalman would know what to get! Thanks!

Here's what it looks like on me. Be aware that these boots are fairly warm (no, it's not insulated, it's just that way). Use the boots cleaner/deodorant, ventilator fan, letting it breath out, et al, and do it often. Otherwise it will stink up rather quickly. I chose these boots specifically because they don't look like riding boots. Very comfortable for walking too.

Goodluck! Those boots have been discontinued for a while... Although, since they retailed for almost $200, that might work in your favor if you can find a pair in your size. You may also want to look at the Set-Up Pegaso boot since they are Sidi's "low line".

Btw do you wear a 12? I'll happily sell you a pair of Joe Rocket touring boots I've worn twice for $75.

Please except my apology, Kneedraggers quit carrying them. I did look on Moto Nation but I had an Italian retard attack and was looking for "Tepor" and not "rain"... I don't know why he'd rather spend $200 on boots to wear to work rather than just wear his good boots and change at work but one thing I do know about those boots and Lorica. He's gonna have some way hot and sweaty feet by the end of his work shift!!! Don't they sell these in perforated?

They have great ankle, toe protection. High sided over the bike and no damage to the feet.

Jeeps has a pair of Tour Master Solutions . He loves them. I have a pair of A Star very similar to his. He said he highly recommends his as I would mine. They are bith waterproof and very comfy. We even go hiking in them if we find a good trail while we're out riding. Pics to follow soon.
