Sidi Doha Boots

doha_1245_general.jpg

I actually won these in a raffle almost a year ago and had pretty much forgot about them in the back of my closet until recently. They call it a boot but it’s really more of a heavily reinforced shoe. The things are quite stout and the pictures don’t really do them justice. I’ve begun wearing these on my commute to work, they work perfect for hopping off the bike and running to a meeting. They’re definitely made for the casual jaunt to work, quick run to the store, etc. I wouldn’t recommend them for serious riding; however, get a real set of boots for that.


Pros:
They look like regular athletic shoes, easy to wear to work.
Ankle down protection is very good
Great feel, these were definitely designed for riding a motorcycle.

Cons:
Cost, a MSRP of $160!
High-top portion of shoe could be reinforced better as compared to the rest of the shoe, seems kinda flimsy in comparison.
Not the most comfortable if you have to do a lot of walking, the shoes are quite stiff due to all the protection built in.

Overall, I like them quite a bit but they’re over-priced at $160.
