These boots are awesome. Was using road specific boots for ADV riding for a bit and these are a huge upgrade. The thick soles feel great when standing while riding. Keep in mind that these boots are fairly narrow. They killed my wide feet for the first few times I wore them. Literal worst pain. Then eventually broke in and fit really well. Also they squeak a lot.
Been riding my older T7 for a few years, mostly single trail, always challenging myself with steeper hills and obstacles: so I fall A LOT, bike (350EXCF) landing on my feet, feet hitting boulders etc: Bottomline: Great protection. Downside: lack of traction pushing the bike up steel hills after falls etc. HERE COMES the enduro version: Fixed the T7 short comings: So overall great boot, super comfortable, wear them in the garage while working on bike to break them in. Hint: Spray Wax chain lube (type with teflon) in the hinge and squeaks are gone. Thanks Atomic!
It is so tight around the ankle it will leave a bruise. Maybe I’ve big ankle bones.
So far it has been difficult to contact Atomic in order to determine what my options are.
Great boots, comfortable right out of the box. Only thing I did strip out one side of one of the backing plates for the adjustable straps.
Fantastic gear without all the bulk and needless pockets....true freedom! Pants are a bit baggy for my skinny legs but they will be good for layering in cold weather. I love the tall size, I don't like my boots half exposed while on the bike. A legit 4 season kit if you add a mid-layer in cold weather. Atomic Moto, the only business on earth where the owner answers the phone when you call and helps you order.
Brian got me these boots in the enduro version. The size was perfect and the boot was comfortable right out of the box. 6 hours of riding and they felt great, looked good and have great protection. very nice boot.
