Perfect fit. Thank you Brian for helping me get to the right boot and size. Coming off a foot injury wearing ‘ADV’ boots, was referred to Atomic Moto and my buying experience was great! New boots are great!
I prefer the precision of the Crossfire 2 SRS but the comfort of the Crossfire 3TA. The Crossair are far better than both-- very precise shifting, better grip on the pegs, better feel on the pegs, and a comfortable toe box like the TA, but not too wide. The three buckles are great and I can go from no knee braces on my ADV bike around town to knee braces for off-roading and dirt biking without having to adjust the buckles. On/off is easy. The lightness is really great, it will be hard to go back. I wear 9.5 in street shoes and 43 fits perfectly with room for a comfort sole upgrade (always thin wool socks for me btw). I thought about getting the HD version but the trial sole just hooks up too much on the pegs making shifting a PIA (I installed trials soles on my TAs). I don't ride hard enduro--in 1st/2nd gear only with my feet on the ground half the time-- and the Crossair soles are plenty grippy for the technical single track, especially compared to rock hard, slippery SRSs. They're vastly better than a trials sole for ADV riding on and off road because shifting is just easier sitting and standing. I try not to dab on big bikes anyway. They also currently cost about half as much as the HD version.
Brian was spot-on for the sizing. Had a great chat about boots, riding style etc.... Boots fit perfect, have worn these boots for 2 days and breakin was minimal.
I highly recommend these boots if you're on the fence about them.
I upgraded from my old size 11 SG-10s which were in pretty good shape but the plastic buckle straps were starting to break off from age. The SG-12s are very rugged, high quality, quite comfortable, and look great. They feel slightly longer than the SG-10s so thicker-than-street-shoe socks are needed. My street shoe width is "C" so, like all the dirt bike boots I've worn for over 55 years, these are a bit wide but not enough to be annoying. Heavy cold weather socks feel snug. As they break in more and buckles are readjusted I think they'll be fine. Size 10.5 would probably be too snug especially with heavy socks. I would buy these again.
I ordered these boots and once I received them I had some fitment questions. I called and talked to Brian the owner. He spent a lot of time on the phone answering my questions and offering possible solutions. Ultimately, I decided to keep the boots. The whole experience was great and I ended up with a great pair of boots that fit well and comfortable right out of the box!
I have not used them outdoors yet
