Bought these boots and now have put on 3k miles. Great for everyday use and even comfortable enough to wear/walk in.
They were a little tight (narrow) but soaked them on my feet in the tub for about 10 minutes then wore dry and they fit very well. Prob the most comfortable boot I've worn.
Rides: 2012 Harley Davidson FXDF Fat Bob
Yes, I recommend this product.

Can TCX X-Five Plus Gore-Tex Boot, be worn for a long time and walked in for say 4 - 6 hours Comfortably
While on long rides, say 1 to 2 weeks, I would like not to have to pack other shoes. Can a person ware these say for all day and not end up a cripple, haha. While my wife is with me, she likes to shop, which means stopping at places and looking around for hours.
I wear man like that and I'm perfectly comfortable. I actually worked in mine before and was completely fine.

How high do these boots rise in front and back?
I currently wear a military type boot @ 9 inches high, I Prefer a higher cut to low cut boots.
I'm 5'8" and they come up to mid shin in the back and a lil bit higher in the front.

Are these boots too hot for summer use? I live in S.C. and it gets REALLY hot here.
2000 BMW R1100RT
I wore mine in 107 degree El Paso TX and my felt were very comfortable. The only time I felt like they were hot is when I'm walking around in direct sunlight they feel a lil hot on the toes. Perfectly comfortable while riding though.

I wear a 10 1/2 M shoe size, what size should i order of the TCX X-Five Plus Gore-Tex Boot
I wear a 9 1/2 typically and I ordered mine as 9 (EU 43?). Use the size chart and choose the next half size down for length. I would only go up if you have an extremely wide foot. I have pretty wide feet and mine were a lil tight til i got em wet and let them dry on my feet. 100% better now that they are broke in.

Does the TCX X-5 have a removable insole?
Yes, i removed mine before I even broke them in and put in a Dr. Scholls gel work boot insole. These are extremely comfortable boots with those insoles.
