I have a pair of Icon Tarmac Ventilated Boots that I love. However, ventilated boots only get me through so many months of the year. I tried a couple pairs of hiker/harley style 'Frankenstein' boots and was not happy with they way they lessened my feel for foot controls and pegs. These goretex boots are great thus far. I don't ride in downpours and I have not immersed them. They have kept my feet dry and toasty in light drizzle and cold weather though. (35' without windchill) They are a little tight in the toe because of their styling but I expect they just need to be broken in.

For winter foot warmth, nothing beats thick wool socks. Unfortunately, they are not comfortable on pressure points and itch. Enter the liner sock. You want something that wicks moisture, is very comfortable, and does not fall off and get lost in your over sock when worn in layers. This sock works perfect. I bought a pair of these and a pair of polypropylene hiking liners socks at a backpacking store. I like these better because the hiking socks tend to creep down to my toes over time.

This Jacket is well represented in the descriptions and pictures. The only disappointment is that the material it is constructed of makes loud 'crunching' noises with the slightest movement. I'm hoping that will lessen once it's broken in more. (been commuting in it for two weeks)
- It performs well while riding.
- The pockets and pant connection zipper area all easily
accessed and used.

** I'll have to get someone to sew a 8" pant connection zipper to my Joe Rocket Hemp Jacket (bought here for $129.99) as it is equally as nice the Aqua Sport but doesn't make me sound like a walking Doritos bag :)

I'm very pleased with these. I like the dual closure that lets you adapt to different sleeves and still keep them snug. Some loose threads make me want to give 4 stars but once I trimmed them nothing has unraveled further so I'll rate these a full 5.
Pros: Good looking, comfortable on hot days, fit was right on.
Cons: The leather on the pads of your fingers is pretty thin. Don't want to test just how thin. They are not cheap.

Lycra and mesh base construction. Ventilated foam padding on hip, thigh and tailbone areas. Hard PU inserts reinforce the thigh and tailbone areas for additional impact and abrasion resistance.

Exactly what I'd expected after reading/view reviews.

I wanted something to wear under my jeans for days when I couldn't bring myself to put my "real safety/powder pants" on over my 501s. I'm not a big guy and I was afraid there wouldn't be enough room unless I bought some baggy/painter pants. I was pleasantly surprised. At 170lbs and 5'11" I am able to wear these under my everyday jeans. (usually costco/generic but Levis are fine too!) The only pair of jeans I cannot wear these under are my 32x32 501s. The peace of mind these provide definitely made them worth the money :)

How high are these boots from the floor?
"How high are these boots from the floor?"
On a Men's size 10 equivalent, the outside of the boot is 7-7/8" tall at the highest point. However, the back is cut lower for mobility and is only 5-7/8" high.

if my waist measurement is 32 what is the best size for me?
your waist is not a "squishy" area. Stick with your actual pant size unless you are planning to wear more than two layers.
