Thanx for 0the review. On my stickly off road KTM 300 I love my Tech 7's. Now I am considering these for my new adventure bike as I will not be hardcore offroad riding just sand, gravel, the odd trail and a lot of pavement.
Yes, I would love 🖤 to see a Hybrid between the bad ass yet super stiff 🎿 Crossfires and the Adventure boots 🥾 ! Would also like to see a more modern sleeker tread pattern, instead of the 80s work boot tread pattern.
Alpinestars Tech 7 Enduro Drystars provide great protection and help keep your feet dry too. If need to walk a long distance; recommend pack a pair of light running shoe and use as needed in trips.
Oh! Sorry. I would assume if you’re in your shoes then you’re camping or at a hotel. Either way, that’s where my boots are if I’m in my “camp” shoes, stashed in a tent or stinking up a hotel room. 😷
In regards to comments, yes I stay in hotels/motels when overnighting, so it’s easy to move my bags and gear into room for safe storage. At 68 years of age, my lower back is a mess and after riding need some comfort. Another option are the Forma Adventure boots. They are lighter, waterproof, provide protection for off-road conditions, and I walked in them right out off the box. If riding rallies, enduros, or aggressively; the Alpinestars Tech 7 is my recommendation. A broken ankle or foot bone is not my idea of fun.
I love my Forma ADV boots the, high model not the low model, for regular dirt and adv riding. Water proof, very easy to walk in, long lasting and have saved my legs a bunch of times.
@@JohnTYoung I have a 7.5 - 8, wide, high instep and the fit was better than most street shoes I'm able to acquire. They were comfortable out of the box and now have three years of extreme use. I also got a set of the low ADV boot but find them lacking in both protection and riding comfort. Trail riding I have hit my foot against rocks and tree roots and no problems.
Had the formas - nice boots - saved my ankle once. The sidis are much more protective and slim enough to fit under jeans. I like m time with forma, but not going back.
Same issue with Forma, amazingly comfortable, easy to walk in, 100% waterproof, but no where near the protection of full on Mx boots. Had tech 10s, great on bike, no good anywhere else. Great vid. 👍
This is the "new generation" of the Adventure 2. They look almost exactly the same as the old ones, but appear to be not as "stiff",...especially in the heel and toe area. I can't squeeze mine with the fingers, quite as much as you did with yours. I heard that from other people too. I believe they used a softer plastic,...for whatever reason,...maybe cost,...or maybe they wanted to make the boots more comfortable and aim more directly for the adventure market. I don't know.
Great review. I’ve been considering Sidi for awhile now then I came across the Alpinestar Toucan Gore-Tex....might go with them as my foot is a wee bit wider than most.
Hi John enjoyed every bit of your reviews! I found in the internet, "rev'it h2o expedition" boots. Kinda offers a protection similar to an mx boots. But the price is horrendous!
They are really good boots. I like mine except my right foot gets irritated and the second buckle digs into my ankle. Decent protect, waterproof, and relatively easy to walk in for short periods of time. The only other boots that I've considered are the Rev'it Expedition, which seems to fit into that 'in-between' that you mentioned but... they are incredibly expensive.
As much as I’m not a revit fan and I think many of their products are overpriced or under perform compared to the competition the expedition gtx boot seems to tick the most boxes. They are really protective really waterproof and comfortable to wear and walk in. I have the Sidi adv2 and the dainese fulcrum gtx boots right now but I’m looking for a more protective pair. Tech7 would be great if they were waterproof but even the dry star ones leak water. I will use them for many weeks adv trips so if they get wet it gets complicated. Sidi adv gtx never ever leaked water. And last I wanted to mention that the revit boots right now are on sale in Europe for 500€ so not so big difference between them and the tech7 drystar.
2 months later: I'm back, watching again. The first 25 seconds I hear that Sidi squeek! My Sidi ADV 2 boots arrived today. Wore them in the bathtub for 1/2 hour - NO LEAKS. Tomorrow going for a road ride in the rain to test out the boots & some other new gear for my 2022 trip. Curious if you ever let the 'outside plastic part of the TOP buckle' dive under the 'inside part of the material' when you snap in? (At 4:47 I see you lift it over) It seems that if you let the plastic go where it wants to go, it will put pressure on the waterproof liner, causing eventual failure of the gortex. You put out some good vids - Thank you!
Walking up that hill, these boots will probably fend off a rattlesnake bite as well! I'm prepping for a 2022 run at the TAT. Sure would be nice if there was a store that I could walk into, and try on different brands/models/sizes. PS I liked this video, thankfully there's no background music so I subbed.
I run the Gaerne adventure boot and also have the Gaerne Balance oiled boot. Love both of them but wanted more protection so I bought the Gaerne SG12's, great boot but they wouldn't work with my Stegz Pegz. The rear spine of the boot stuck out to far and I couldn't adjust my Stegz rubbers back far enough, I was always riding on the arch of my foot and that wasn't acceptable and there was no way I was getting rid of the Stegz, absolutely love them. Might look at the Toucans, although the last pair of Alpines I had I totally hated, but that was 16 years ago.
Have you tried the Desert Stegz Pegz? They sit farther back than the regular ones. I wear SIDI Crossfires and ride on the balls of my feet and the desert style work very well.
@@JohnTYoung No I haven't, I'll need to look into them, I was unaware that they sat back farther. I have them Stegz on my xtrainer and 390RR Beta, absolutely love them. Thanks for the feedback, I'm about ready to pull the trigger on the Toucan's, they appear to have the level of protection that I am looking for, right in the middle between adventure and MX boots.
I had a pair of these...things I didn't like...noisy, and not that comfortable for me. Also I had the Sidi Rain ( waterproof but not Gortex) version and they were not waterproof. The biggest complaint was the heal wore out really fast. I switched to a Forma Adventure and they still are comfortable, and waterproof after 5 years. The soles are in great shape as well. They don't offer as much protection as the Sidi but for technical riding I use an Alpinestar Tech7 Enduro. YMMV
Interesting, I use a pair of Gaerne all terrains, seem close to the same, shorter, softer, full goretex to top but have 3rd buckle but maybe less ankle support. Can't try them all so nice to see some real world reviews.
Hey there John, been following for a while now, i like your reviews very much. Wich pants are you using in this video? i see that they combine vey well with the adv boots...

Hey John.. been following for a while but comment infrequently.. check out the Alpinestars Toucan boots. Been wearing them for a little less than a year now and I’ve very pleased. Gore and has a bit more protection than the sidi adventure. Downside.. the cost.
Hi Cole. I did, and I wanted to like them so badly. They are exactly what I am looking for, price be damned. BUT, the difference in fit between the Alpinestars boots and Sidi boots are night and day on my skinny assed feet. I now own a pair of Sidi Crossfire 3 TAs and they fit so much better than my Tech 7s did. Still, not water proof and weigh 5 lbs per boot so there's that. Thanks for the comment and the advice. I really appreciate it!
@@JohnTYoung how skinny are we talking about? Do you shop for C width shoes normally? Or do you buy regular width shoes and have a little bit of wiggle room. I'm about to buy a pair of these but keep seeing that word narrow and I'm getting a little concerned. I think these boots would offer more protection than the gaerne trials boots that are so popular.
Hello, I am using Vespa gts. I want to buy this boat. Because it will protect my shins in case of an accident. Did I get right? In which season can I wear it? I do not use a scooter in rain and snowy weather. In rainless, hot or cold weather. But I use it especially between May and September. In my country, the temperature between May and September is between 25 and 40 degrees. Do you think summer heat will be a problem with this boot? Is it a problem to have it on my feet in winter or cold months? Will it be a problem for the scooter? What is the difference between suede and leather models? Is the leather model safer and warmer? ThanksFaux or Artificial leather? Is it cut? Isn't it safe? I want to buy Sidi Adventure Mid 2. I am someone who uses a Vespa gts scooter. Won't it protect me in case of an accident?
I wear Magellan rubber boots... not very protected I know but that’s all I got. I can’t stand riding boots. They’re just too uncomfortable. Those boots you have look sweet.
I guess the Gaerne Fastback Enduro boots are the best one you are looking for. Endruo sole with good protection. Have you tried that? If so, is it good for touring?
The more in between options that provide more protection than these, but aren’t MX boots, would be Forma Terra Evo Dry, or the Revit Discovery GTX. Far more protective, but you can still walk around. I’m going through this process right now, and it’s awful. :-) The Sidi Adventure boots are so comfy for my foot, but not nearly enough protection for my taste.
What about the Gaerne Dakar GTX? I ordered them just now and I am also considering to order the Sidi for comparison, but I am a bit worried because I have wide feet (although I had years ago Sidi MotoGP boots - but I think I can remember I bought them more because I "wanted" them and actually they had been also a bit too narrow...).
