Summer Boots

the difference to non perforated/mesh boots is huge. You can actually feel the air over your feet as you ride.

I just watched a video on those @ revzilla and those are awesome boots! Perfect for what I'm looking for in a summertime boot except for one big drawback (not your fault, I forgot to mention it) I need at least a D size and even then those can be tight. I would buy them this second if they were wide enough. Thanks for the great input, they look so good I'm a little depressed that I can't wear them.  :-/  I don't understand why most shoe makers assume everyone has a narrow foot, what a pisser!

For me, it's the opposite! I have super thin feet, there's actually NO racing boots on the market that I can wear, I need shoelaces!!!
 
BTW, about perforated shoes, I have Alpinestars Faster Vented boots and it's awesome how you feel the wind around your feet!

Good luck! Haven't heard of any moto boots that come in different widths... AND perforated at that.
 
Just wear flip flops. :P

I would trade off vented for waterproof b/c of the unpredictable weather here in VA. Rockin' Gaerne Balance Oiled Boots

Thanks for that, they're nice boots! From what I've read, Alpine stars sizes run a little larger than euro sizes so that's a little comforting to me but still, no size EE. I don't like having to return things. I've been eye-balling these and they're nice, a little pricey but no wide width.

The astars boots arent much off kn the euro sizes
 
I normally wear a 46 euro (11.5us) in everything
the 45 smx3 and smx plus boots ive gotten are fantastic... a little snug but have broken in well
(smx plus not worn in yet)

ATGATT... ATTATT, two acronyms I live by.

Nice boots but my feet need air flow.

Right, I've been looking at those (SMX 3's my favorite) and they're nice but I really can't wear what most people can wear. I need boots in a wide width, like an EE because of my high instep. Anything snug or too hot and my foot gets inflamed and turns into a balloon. I must seem like a hard to please, high maintenance ho.  :-S
