Great shoe at a great price point
I purchased the Kili Lo boot for riding and I have to say what a great boot, high quality, offers plenty of protection. With the reinforced areas such as the heel, ankle, and shifting areas, It makes riding my CBR easier. Size is true to fit, I picked a 10 (43 Euro) and it fit perfectly, they are very comfortable. Great price!

Fantastic comfort and features.
Firstgear designed these boots with comfort in mind first, and it shows. The inner lining is very soft. There's enough give to accomodate my wider feet, while still maintaining a rigid outer with good protection.
The Kili Lo has nice, hard ankle, toe and heel protection. A semi-rigid sole, that is still pliable enough to be comfortable for walking around.
Being waterproof boots, they don't have any decent airflow. However, the inner lining wicks away moisture so your feet stay dry -- adding to the comfort aspect.
Excellent style, too. Fairly technical boot, without screaming "I'M A MOTORCYCLE BOOT!" Sleek, black and simple. Easily worn with jeans or shorts, off the bike.
For the price, it's hard to beat the Firstgear Kili Lo boot.
Highly recommended.

Great
Excellent heel, toe and ankle protection. The straps are good and prevent any chance of your laces being caught in the bike's controls. The boots feel really solid and well built.
I think the price is excellent for the quality.
The boots also look fine with jeans so there's no need to carry mulitple sets of shoes to your final destination.
Recommended.

Perfect for dry and wet weather
These boots are comfortable and reliable. I live on an Island and it can rain at any time. I am no longer concerned if it does because I know my feet will be fine. The protection is great and really gives me a confidence boost when riding.

Just your basic over the ankle riding boot
First off, this shoe is pretty good looking, you'll never mistake it for a casual or trendy shoe, but it definitely doesn't look too out of place by today's standards.
As for the comfort, it does dig into your shin quite a bit, not sure if this was my own fault, but something to keep in mind if you want to walk around with these boots.
The toe and heel are pretty hard and I feel like they provide pretty good protection, the "hard ankle protectors" are a little dinky though, just some extra padding, nothing too special here.
I did have some issues with QC, random spots with extra glue and resin, scuffs and scratches, but nothing that affected the performance of this boot.
Overall, this boot is decent, it feels like it would protect adequately in a crash, well as well as a short boot can. It feels very good on the bike, no slip at all, even in the rain.

Good looking boots.
I bought these boots for my boyfriend, he wears size 12 which was the biggest size available. He tried them on and said they feel tight and probably just has to break them in; so he put them on and went for a ride.He said he likes them.

wp short boots
These boots were very comfortable right off. Have not had a chance to wear on the bike due to weather, but boots seem to have the flex to be comfortable. My other wp boots are a D brand from Italy but much higher boot. How cool these boots are in summer are yet to been seen, but for travel I like something that is wp just in case it rains. For instant comfort and very little break in, I would rate these very high.
