Ordered these boots after hearing about how comfortable they were for years and several recommendations from others. I came across atomic moto during my search and liked the very informative reviews of products they sell. I spoke with Brian who asked me what type of riding I do, type of rider I am, what i was looking to spend, etc. He initially recommended a pair of boots that were cheaper than these and said they were excellent quality and would last a long time. I told him that I had heard of gaerne sg10’s for years and he said they were a great boot as well if I wanted to spend more than what I had originally told him. I got these for cheaper than anywhere else i could find on the internet. I like the fact that he didn’t try and upsell me on the most expensive boots and was well informed of the products he sold. Brian also told me he is the only one to talk with customers which works out well for the customer and his business.
I received the boots in a timely manner and tried them out. Most comfortable pair of boots I have ever had on my feet and I have been riding for 30 years. The build quality is excellent and blew the alpinestars I had out of the water in every way, shape and form. I will only order from atomic moto from now on and have recommended them to my riding buddies. Thanks again!!
I called cause I was having trouble getting anyone at Rocky mtn to give me any figment answers about these boots after sending a pair back, and i got ahold of the boot whisperer lol . Brian had me take a pic of my feet and email him within 5 minutes he called me back and emailed me some figment guides. Well to make a long story short he explained what was going on with my sizing and two days later I had a perfect fitting boot. Atomic Moto has earned a customer for life!
I wanted to upgrade my boots and spent a good bit of time researching different brands. I have a pretty wide foot so it was a challenge to find the right fit. Because of the awesome customer service from Atomic-moto I found these. These boots fit my wide foot without having to go up 2 extra sizes over my normal size 11. While the forefoot is wide the heel/ankle is snug and not sloppy. The overall quality is fantastic. This is the first hinged boot I have ever owned and it is a lot more comfortable than my previous boots. If you are going to invest in a higher end boot I would definitely consider Gaerne. I would also highly recommend Atomic-moto, I honestly wouldn't even shop anywhere else for them. Their customer service is far above anywhere else and adds tremendous value!
Great product and great service. Thanks Atomic-Moto!
Great boots, my second pair. These being several years newer had more plastic but that’s okay. They are also much stiffer so they need some breaking in. So far so good. Comfy already and not yet squeaky.
Very comfortable right out of the box, size 49 is perfect for a size 13EEE.
Brian was great to work with and help me find the right boots that would fit properly!
These boots feel very sturdy and protective which I love. Protection was my top priority with this purchase and I feel these boots will hold up to whatever challenge I put them to.
Having wide feet I was worried that they would be too tight, but the fit is just right. Maybe a bit snug, but the sizing in my eye seems a bit generous and there's enough room for my feet to not feel cramped.
I did have one issue with the lowest buckle on the boot. With my high arches/instep, the part of the buckle where the strap is held in place created a pressure point that made my feet/toes fall asleep after about 5 minutes of wearing the boots. Even leaving the buckle at the widest setting would not alleviate this issue.
I ended up taking some side cutters to the retaining bit of the strap and cut the protruding bit flush with the rest of the strap parts. After this mod the boots feel much more comfortable and I do not have issues with my toes falling asleep. The only concern now is that the removable part of the strap could "fall out", however if the buckle is left done up when the boots are stored there does not seem to be an issue.
All in all, I highly recommend these boots to someone with protection as their top priority and reasonably wide feet. If you have high arches/instep, be aware that there may be pressure points, but easily fixed through a simple "trim".
Excellent fit. Wide toe box, quality build and materials.
Excellent customer service (best in business). Will buy from here again.
Ordered these boots a couple weeks ago. A few days after my order, I got a call from Brian to inform me the boots might take a few days to get to me. Now, I’m nursing a broken foot, so time isn’t an issue. Boots finally arrived with an awesome pair of compression socks as a bonus. I’ve ordered from this company before and have never had a complaint. The fact I was contacted by phone about a few days delay on my order speaks volumes about atomic moto. This is how small businesses stand out and why we need to support them. Thanks Brian!
After much research and even a purchase and return (from Amazon) of an O’Neal Element I went with the Boulder Comp as recommended by Atomic staff. I found out that I have very little room for a boot with a higher toe box because of my shift lever. The Boulder Comp was better, although I did have to adjust shift lever. Shifting is far from idea but manageable. I wear a 10 1/2 in most shoes and ordered size 11 in the comp. The fit is good. The bottom portion is very stiff with hot spots on the top of my arches. The top upper portion has good flex and is comfortable. Buckle system seems good, functional and sturdy. The material on these is synthetic. I imagine with time the foot area should loosen up for better flex. The boots should offer good toe, heel and lateral support. The build quality appears to be very solid and they are not made in Chine, big plus for me. I would have rather gone with a fully leather boot but they were sold out. Brian at Atomic is outstanding and really knows boots. They were ordered and delivered in less than 5 business days. If the bottom half of the boot loosens over time, then you would be hard pressed to find a better boot at this price point.
