These Boots be Loaded

It's been awhile since I've landed some premium riding boots to evaluate, and the passage of time shows as these things are becoming more complex, feature-rich and meticulously engineered. I mean, these are just Triumph Alpinestar AS2 Boots yet they are practically small foot spas designed to protect, coddle and shield your trotters. These guys have armor everywhere (including toe sliders) and a waterproof lining, and really are some of the most accommodating boots I've ever put on (especially considering they aren't quite broken in yet). Comfortable on the bike, comfortable to walk around in. We shall see how waterproof they are. Oh, and check out the cool Union Jack imprint on the inside zipper flaps. Attention to detail like this is soooo sweet.
