Milwaukee Renegades
by: Sandra

I thought I could wear a "cute" pair of boots from the shoe store w/a little heel...and of course I can and have! But after classes, riding a while, and reading up on typical motorcycle injuries (because nobody PLANS an accident, right?) I wised up and went shopping for a practical biker boot. I don't really like that "work boot" look, and was appalled at spending big $$ on a pair of "ugly" boots, but started shopping anyway. As I read descriptions, studied brands, and made a check list of what I needed from a true riding boot, I started paring down options to styles I didn't "hate"...

I finally narrowed it down to the Milwaukee brand, either the renegade or the captain's boot, I think...and I was really starting to like the look as well! I settled on the Renegade, ordered during an on-line sale, and was absolutely stunned to find they fit perfectly - shoes by mail order? - yep, and it worked for me.

Now I wear them any time we're going somewhere where jeans are appropriate and I will be walking a lot, like county fair, a concert, long day of shopping...anywhere I don't have to take my shoes off - they ARE a bit of a pain to put on/take off a lot. But VERY comfortable, durable, built for the job, and I think quite CUTE w/the metal tags on the heel, toe, and laces. And of course, they're perfect for riding, too!!

Thanks! Yeah, I have some Rev'it boots, but they're so stretched out my feet just slide around. I was looking at Sidi womens but they're around $300.

Try "River Roads". They are lace up with a good sole.

Try 2 or 3 bike stores or locate a Cycle Gear store. Try everything on, it's all about the fit. You don't want to buy something that doesn't feel good. Also need to be comfortable enough to walk in.
