The PUMA Testastretta II Mid mixes the essence of PUMA and moto performance into a street-ready style. The Testastretta II Mid takes performance elements from the MotoGP, using the looks of the vamp shiftguard, slider, heel counter and separate aluminum heel to bring authenticity to this moto trainer. It also has a synthetic upper, injected EVA midsole for cushioning and an oil-resistant, non-slip rubber sole. Whether you're on a bike or on foot, this shoe is all about the motorsport lifestyle.
They slip on easily and are comfortable on and off the bike. Very satisfied overall. Of course they are not going to protect as much as the more serious full boots, but they are great for around town and short commutes.

I've read on other sites that these aren't necessarily riding boots, but are instead just "shoes" not intended for riding. Thanks in advance for your response!
they are a good hybrid of both in my opinion. They offer some protection while still being comfortable enough to wear off the bike for a while. I wouldn't recommend them for hardcore riding but for commutes and around town they are great.
