This is a road boot (an amazing one at that, that's what I got them for) and will not offer any protection for off roading. Your ankle and shin are covered, sure, but there is no bracing or stiffness. Get a motocross boot if you're doing any kind of off roading. I fractured my ankle due to bad boot choice and it will follow me for the rest of my life even though it was 100% preventable.
After seeing this review and checking out the Formas and ASs, I like these better. I wear 9.5 in normal shoe size (USA), what size would you recommend I get? Size chart goes from 9 to 10, no half size, so it’s either 43 or 44. How do they run? Thanks for helping. Cheers from Honduras

Watch my next video on the Rev'it Expedition boot, for exactly this reason. It's a valid point! - Andrew

9.5 UK should be a 43, unless you are the upper end of a 9.5, in which case the 44. - Andrew
Thanks for the review! What motorcycle trousers are you wearing at 1:15?

@@AdventureRiderMoto Thank you! Based on a.o. your TCX boots review, just ordered them.
To additionally wax it or not?
I don't think there's any need. They are great out of the box - Andrew
@@AdventureRiderMoto not for waterproofing but I see on the video that leather is (easy) soaked with water
@@Vjekoslav-vf3hr I use obenaufs heavy duty LP. it darkens the leather a little bit but I actually prefer it.
@@Vjekoslav-vf3hr Mine has been soaked numerous times and always dry well. Waxing would be a good step but it's not essential.
Rode in mine 2 years now, never waxed them. actually i don't think i ever cleaned them.. still going strong. awesome boot
