Velcro is shite!

Lasted less than 2 yrs with only occassional use. Would not recommend!

Go for Sidi's.

i have the vertigo air for street riding as they have a comfy sole, good ankle protection for street use and good ventilation.

or gaerne make decent boots also.

I've had mine about 5 years, trackdays, about 50,000 road kms. still in great shape 8)

they arent the full race boot, they are the zip and velcro ones. and are in awesome condition still.
