yotaman88210 Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Any full coverage boot like that will work, but I think you can find a better one for the money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natedogg624 Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Rider Gear Requirements (No, shorts and flip flops won't cut it....) 1) Damage free BSI, DOT or SNELL full-face helmet with face shield. 2) Riding boots that fully cover the ankle. 3) Gauntlet style gloves with full wrist coverage. 4) One or two piece leathers. Two piece leather suits must zip together for Novice, Intermediate or Advanced groups. Ballistic nylon suits such as Joe Rocket, AeroStitch etc. are acceptable in the Novice and Intermediate Group only provided they are either one piece or two piece that zip together with 50% zipper contact, reinforced and padded shoulders, elbows, hips, and knee areas. No chaps.looks like you are good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost1888 Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 I have these TCX that NinjaNick posted. I don't do track days but have been very happy with them as for regular to aggressive street riding and walking around every hour or two to 20 minutes or so. For the price they have been just what I was looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rusty 996 Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 nothing under $ 250 give you good protection, and i think thats the reason why you have riding boots specialy for track.its not to show of what you can afford but what can prevent injury.i have pair of sidis .dont try save on your gear,you will regred later,thats what happen to my friend.

repsol2007 Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 I broke my foot and ankle last year at Mid-Ohio in a average track boot. I recommend not skimping on boots! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jermattak Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 i would pay alot more for some better boots, if i had cheap boots or shoes on a month ago when i wrecked, i would probably be recovering from my feet being snapped off my feet, rather than a broken ankle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kawipilot Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 You can drink cheap beer, or watch low budget porn, but never ever skimp on safety equipment. Buy the best you can truly afford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squidy Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 If your looking to spend a little extra I would check out the Sidi Vertigo Air Boots. They have good ventalization and seem to have great support over competitors of the same price range. I'll be looking to pick up a pair within the next week or so.-Danny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
