The Gaerne Adventure Boot tilts toward the street side of Adventure Touring. It is a fairly soft and very walkable boot, with a lots of flexibility for ease of walking. The BOMBERS feel this is at 80% street / 20% adventure and dual sport riding. The styling of these is subtle, the quality superb, and like all Gaerne boots, supremely comfortable. They can be worn with armor, and pants tucked in, or, cinched down snugly so you can wear your jeans over them. The boot has a plastic shin plate, easy to use buckles (another area where Gaerne leads the industry) and reasonable support. Their light weight, wide heel area make it good for walking. In fact, they are the choice of some police departments, because the LEOs can do foot pursuits in them!!!
