Great review as always, thanks. I bought these from you earlier this week. They are wonderful! Very light, the easiest boots I've ever tried to put on and take off. I have broad feet and a very high instep so am limited to a short boot. I have a foot injury (non bike related) at present, so can't try them on the bike but they are very comfortable right from the start. HOWEVER; I have seen no mention of the fact that the gear change pad is on the left boot only. I think you should make this clear. It's not just your review, others are the same. I ride modern l/h and classic r/h gear change bikes. I'm a bit concerned about the durability of the right boot. I can't understand why Klim decided to do this.Your comments would be appreciated.
I really love your reviews, but I feel you missed this one. I had the first generation of the Outlander boots and have loved them, finally starting to come apart after 4 years. I purchased the new Outlander but sorry to say it is a step back. Primarily, and significantly, the boot is more than an inch shorter than the already short first generation. (Like MW wrote below.) It simply does not perform as any kind of touring/multiday motorcycle boot. Useable as a commuter I guess, or just as a hiking boot. The upper on the previous generation was thicker as well, just much better for motorcycle touring. Someone said, "let's use less material and call it an upgrade." Not so much, sent them back. But thank you for your detailed videos, they are outstanding.
I was pretty sold on the Forma Adventure Lows but these have peeked my interest. I was one that saw the boa system and immediately questioned it. It looks like you will tighten it up and then move your foot and it will loosen up as you walk...but if it's top quality then I'm willing to try it out lol. I'm a 9 1/2 in US what should I look for in these? Go up or down?
These are comfortable, easy to secure and easy to walk in, but they have absolutely zero protection for twisting your ankle. How do I know? I post this as I lie on the couch recovering from multiple lower leg / ankle fractures and ankle dislocation incurred in a simple low side while riding in these boots on a simple trail. Serious bummer. After what looks like 2-3 months of recovery, I’m switching to MX boots and probably won’t ever wear these again. Too bad.
Thank you very much for the feedback and I hope you are well by now. I tried it and almost bought it, but decided to search for reviews before buying because it felt like lousy protection qnd that Klim was going more comfort than protection on this one. Motilegends (as much as I like them) seems to have downplayed the lack of protection on this one.
@@darshansebastian on a personal level I realize that my injury was because of bad technique on the bike and poor fortunes when I came off of it but still, I wouldn’t recommend these boots for any sort of off road whatsoever. Anyhow, tomorrow will be the one year anniversary of my injury and I’m still recovering, still have pain, am still doing physical therapy, etc. I recommend that everyone wear motocross boots for off road. Soft adventure boots without stiff soles and hard plastics to protect against twisting motions will not serve you in a crash.
I bought these boots yesterday , the left boot (that happens only on the left , remember the left has the gear lever extra leather layer ) has a design flaw ,the last wire loop (the toe area , right side) when i walk it digs in my foot and is annoying , i definitely cant walk much on these boots.
@@Motolegends LOL... not really, you pronounce those words correctly according to your geographical accent. The issue people have when watching your videos (which are great BTW) is that the company Klím has a specific name pronunciation. I'm sure when you say that you're going for a hike and you need to "CLIMB" a hill or mountain, you don't say, "I'm going to "Klím" that mountain"... just sayin' Keep up the great vids!
"rare is going to be the foot", beautiful use of the English language Chris. 👍🙂
I bought these and can say they are as good as Chris says

I particularly like the Boa lacing system.
Amazingly informative reviews!

What about sizing..is it true to size..thanks
yes
Just bought a pair, will not be doing any off-roading on my VFR. Bought them to go with my Hood K7 jeans, rather than wear my full height Daytonas.
I think that the reflective scotch light panel is a deal breaker! 🤣
Great review 👍 thank you!
Are these boots steel toe?
Is it fair to say Klim are the premier brand for 'moto hiking'?
Informative as per usual.
Very clear !!! Thanks
👍

You are saying Klim wrong.
Yes, I also pronounce tomato and aluminium incorrectly. CP
