What a great video...actually showing how good the protection is (stiffness, very little side flex, and just how hard it is to flex the toe). Thanks...and absolutely love the scenery where you ride!
I purchased the SG22 Goretex (waterproof) with enduro sole. They are great boots and the toe box is actually lower then my Tech7's so I adapted very quickly. I thought they would be hot due to the goretex but they were very comfortable. Thank you for the video
nice one! Ohh man.. I might have to look at the waterproof one now 🤣. One of my concerns was exactly the heat. I was under the impression that the Goretex version would be too hot. What kind of temperature have you already ridden with it? cheers mate. Thanks for sharing your input!
@@RoiaMoto I've got the Gore Tex ones too, and they're not too hot, I tested them in Northern European summer (so not that hot, about 20 to 25C), but I was impressed of the overall comfort. Also they are completely waterproof, I had to scout out many bog crossings and I was stomping in the water a lot seeing if it's sinking or not. Also spilled quote a bit of water into them from the top and next day they were mostly dry. I've heard people say that if you get waterproof boots wet they take several days to dry.
😂😂😂😂 Yes! The squeaky a lot. Next time I need to edit the squeaking noise out of the video! Despite the squeaking, hands down best boots I’ve ever used.
@@RoiaMotoassuming you’re an Italian why not create these videos in a nice suit with some loafers? Sure you’re not obligated to wear these noisy boots in the videos.
haha I'll skip the suit. That's too fancy for me 😎. But I must say it would be quite a scene to make such videos like a "proper" Italian. How do you know I'm Italian? Could you notice the accent?
Hello hello! Nice video .. again... these boots are looking awesome 👌. The level of protection is great! My THOR BLITZ BOOTS were exactly the same in stiffness when they where new but now they have loose some of its stiffness but the got more comfort. I remember when I first try them I want the ti throw out of the window. But day by day ride by ride they became much more comfy and now when I am not wearing them I feel that something is rong. Protection gear is the alpha and the omega. Greetings and Don forget the toolbox casetina!! 😂😂
"wanted to throw them out the window" hahaha 😆. Fully understand the feeling. But as you said, once you get used to good protection it feels strange to ride without it. Toolbox checking coming soon 😎
Thanks for the video! Hey I noticed you're wearing a wedding ring. You should consider swapping it out for a silicone band for riding. You could wreck and break your ring finger which could be super dangerous with a ring on.
Hey mate! Thanks for the comment and watching the videos! It would be great to have the Tech 7 with me during the video but I had to sell them. I couldn’t afford the SG22 without selling the T7 first 😂. They are definitely much better than the Oneal but I definitely feel a huge difference compared to the SG22. Both great boots!
I have Tech 7 and the SG-22. The Tech 7 is nowhere close to the flexibility of the cheap boots in this video, but they are also not nearly as stiff as the SG22. There’s a massive step up from the Tech 7 to the SG-22. They’re both great boots, just depending on what your use cases and risk tolerance are.
I was looking at the Enduro version with Gore-Tex lining, do you have any feedback on them? How are they different? Would the enduro sole be better when off the motorcycle than the MX sole?
Hi mate I have never tried the enduro version so I can’t share my personal experience. A few comments I can make based on the data sheet. The sole should be better, however I haven’t found the sole of the standard SG22 to be a problem. The goretex makes it water proof but you must match it with an over the boot trousers. Don’t let water get inside by sipping in via your legs. If the Enduro version gets wet, it’s expected to take longer to try. Usually products that have a Gortex layers breath less. Expect higher temperatures inside your boot. If you ride often in a cold/wet environment, for example UK/Sweden, it might make sense. If however you ride in Australia, Im not sure it’s worth it.
Actualmente llevo unas Leatt 5.5 que son muy cómodas y mi pie encaja a la perfección, hace tiempo probé las Gaerne sg12 y las Sidi y me aplastaban el tobillo, me podéis decir si estas sg22 son mas anchas en la parte del tobillo que las sg12, en la zona donde vivo no hay ningún distribuidor cercano, gracias
Hi there! I have never worn the SG12 so I can’t compare them one to one. I definitely feel some pressure on my ankle with the SG22 but it’s acceptable. Do you have the option to buy it online and return it if it does not fit you well?
@@RoiaMoto Si, eso hare, la pediré a una tienda fiable con opción de devolución, muchas gracias. Mencionar que también tengo una 300L y aunque para ponerla a punto tuve que gastar bastante dinero (suspensiones, escape, torre rally, etc), la moto va muy bien, es ligera, potencia suficiente y muy fiable, estoy muy contento con ella.
Hey mate! I've never work the Forma Predator II so I can't make a direct comparisson. But I'm really happy with the SG22 as you can probably notice in the video 😀. If you have a shop nearby definetely recommend trying them on to see how you feel. cheers
I recently reviewed the AIROH Commander. Take a look on this video. There is a new version out which I still don't have, but seems even better. AIROH Commander 2.
these boots aren t good for off road riding, too much hard, you feel nothing & go for mistakes, they are good for moto cross, for off road i prefer more flexible boots

I was still cursing those boots because of the squeeky noise it made during your excellent Tire changing video!
😂😂😂😂
Yes! The squeaky a lot. Next time I need to edit the squeaking noise out of the video!
Despite the squeaking, hands down best boots I’ve ever used.
There is solution for squeaking noise. Use Daytona paste for motorcycle boots or simply you can use some lubricant under moving elements.
@@RoiaMotoassuming you’re an Italian why not create these videos in a nice suit with some loafers? Sure you’re not obligated to wear these noisy boots in the videos.
thanks for sharing that! Never used this Daytona paste. I'll take a look

How do you know I'm Italian? Could you notice the accent?
Very good information thank you... I think about change my tech 7 for this SG22
The SG22 offers a significant upgrade in safety. As always, make sure it fits you well and feels comfortable.
It's a gore Tex boot, are they waterproof, waterprotected or just for the breathing? I'm riding sidi. Love em. But one watercrossing, and I'm soaked
Hi Paul,
The “enduro” version is with Goretex. Mine is the standard version without goretex.

@@RoiaMoto np!
... Love your videos. Thanks.
3:20 ... I have the Tech 7 Drystar and in no way will they bend/flex sideways.

@@RoiaMoto ... I agree, the SG22 are the top of the line boots.
Great review 👍👍 Do you find the toe box wider on the SG22 vs Tech 7?
Hi mate
Yes, the toe box of the SG22 is wider.
@@RoiaMoto Ended up buying the Gore-tex version 👍 very nice boots 🥾Thank you 💸💸😆
@@petersen_michael_ how is it? I'm thinking of buying one but the duty is too expensive importing it where I am 😢.

i ride the same exact bike with the same exact boots for the exact the same reasons. I have the enduro the version, i guess i went all in
It's great combination 😎. Is yours waterproof (Gortex?)
@@RoiaMoto yes it is.they are great,
Have you tried a pair of Frey Daytona?
Never tried them. Can't really say anything negative or positive about them.
Interesting.
I was going for the Forma Predator II.... Need to ponder 😂
What about helmets?
I need to get a new one for next season 👍
Hey mate! I've never work the Forma Predator II so I can't make a direct comparisson. But I'm really happy with the SG22 as you can probably notice in the video 😀.

If the boots aren’t squeaking they’re no longer doing their job.
I like that 😎
these boots aren t good for off road riding, too much hard, you feel nothing & go for mistakes, they are good for moto cross, for off road i prefer more flexible boots
I’m heading on a 5.000km trip in 3 days.
Will definitely report back how has been my experience with them on longer trips.
Hi, how did you get on on your long trip ?.Great video, thank you for sharing 👍. @@RoiaMoto
It's a great boot ONLY if it fits.
Fully agree.M!
