boots and bibs?


i spent some money on trukke boots they were about mmmm 130 bucks i think they work well and i got a good pair of black carhartt bibs from sportsmans warehouse. they work well. i have a yamaha jacket ;)! so im not a total cheapo
 
Reima h2oproof bibs. Haven't had a wet butt in 3 or 4 seasons. But they can be too hot depending on temps and riding style.

As far as boots, sorel and trukke have provided excellent performance. Trukke's have more ankle support than the sorel's, but both are quite warm.

I bought a pair of yamaha boots , not sure which model , for like $120. And if you don`t mind wet feet in the 1st 10 minutes you ride then they are great :brr
 
the baffin boots i have have never leaked water or made me cold, they just are a little big for me, i would trade someone for the equal boot in a size 11

i have used fxr clothing for the past ew years and love it, had leather before and will never go back.
 
I wear a Yamaha Flame jacket and Yamaha Team bibs that were both made by FXR and they are very warm and very dry.
Id be very interested to hear about Yamaha boots and how your feet are wet for the first 10 minutes. Im looking at getting a new pair of boots and had considered a pair that Yamaha sells that go for $130. They are rated for -65 F, so youd think they would be warm, but Id like to hear more about them.

No my feet don`t have a chance to sweat in these boots. Within 10 minutes of riding you feel cold water soaking through them. I ride with my feet in the footwells so the snow melts on my boots. But i have never had a pair of boots wet through like these do. They did it the 1st time i wore them and yamaha dealer said if you don`t buy gore-tex them it`s your tough luck. I`ll have to look and see which model they are.
 
Oh- that's too bad-- You'd think they'd take 'em back. I usually wear my L.L. Bean pac boots with the removable felt liners, and they have rubber bottoms and leather uppers so they won't leak. So far they've always been warm and dry
 
Well just cause mine leak doesn`t mean they all do thats for sure.Could just be bad seams or something. But i sure was not too happy they wouldnt do anything about it. They basically told me i shouldnt of been a cheapskate and if i spent more money and got the gore-tex i would have dry feet.
