Love them; need size 10, ordered 9; run slightly smaller. Was told I couldn’t return them, but not sure why…
Looking for a boot to ride as a passenger for ADV and street rides on a GSA. Was looking for waterproof and comfort. I usually wear 8-8.5 in casual footwear. Tried the men's 8 and was too bulky and just a bit too big. Brian recommended the women's boot in same size. Out of the box it was snug, but after a few ride and walking around a bit they loosened up as Brian said they would and are now perfect. They are also not as heavy or bulky as the men's version. Haven't experienced any rain yet, but did walk in ankle deep water crossing a stream and feet were dry.
Brian was super communicative and helpful. His videos reviewing boots were crucial in helping make my decision. The Sidis are excellent. So light, stiff where it counts and comfortable. I would have never known that these work for wider feet without Brian's review as well.
very stiff boot that is going to take a bit to break in. Compared to the X-3, they are not as comfortable but have more protection around the calf. I bought these for my wife, who is 5'4" with 16" calves. They fit her great and have room around the calf to spare. I took a star off from 5 because the top buckle strap is inside the boot with nothing between the strap and your leg. All my other boots have the strap between the liner and the shin pad.
These pants are super comfortable, have lots of pockets and vents to keep you from overheating when it gets warm. I ride in the mountains so the temperature changes with the change in altitude. These pants just plain work.
Tons of vents, lots of pockets, padding where you want it. Doesn’t flap in the wind because it has cinches in the arms. It has a removable liner for warmer days too.
I don’t think I will wear anything else.
Ended up getting a call to confirm my order, that turned into 100 dollars off price for choosing a different color.
I’d say that was Worth the call ! Customer service matters. You won’t get that from a big box store. Imma Happy man
