Yes!! I use my orthodics in mine for that "custom" fit!!!

Yes it does! I replaced mine right away!

Yes it does. I wear orthotics so this feature was important to me. It removes easily and can be put back in easily as well. Hope this helps.

I just got the TCX X-5 yesterday. I just checked and they are removable.

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.

Yes, the TCX X-5 does have a removable insole.

I usually wear a 10.5 - 11. I ordered 11s and the fit is just about right on the length. They are a bit loose on me, but I have narrow feet, so I'm used to that. It also allows for thick socks when it's cold out.
The really great thing is that Revzilla will exchange them for nothing, so if you get the wrong size, you can change it!
Hope this helps!

I just got my TCX X-5 yesterday. I wear a normal size 10. Ordered the 44/10. They do have a little room to spare. So I'm thinking they'll be on the stiff side and a little snug at first, but after they break the fit should be spot on.

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.

My previous answer contained a type. Size 44 fit my size 10 foot correctly. I would recommend going up to a 45 for a 10.5.

I wear a 10 and a 43 fits perfectly. For a 10.5, I would recommend going up to a 44.

I'm same size as you, Mike. ORDER A 43.

Now RevZilla has a terrific return/exchange policy, so if the 43's are too snug, then move to a 44. But I'm pretty much a 10.5 with not a very wide foot, & the 43's fit me spot on.
Hope that helps.

I wear these in 95 degree central Florida weather without any problem. They wick very well.

Above 75 degrees, there warm. With next to no air flow, these will be HOT boots in the summer. I'd look for WP air boots.

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 regularly wear these boots riding and find them very comfortable. I've also worn them all day at work, but I have a desk job. I haven't given them any long, urban hiking test runs. That said, they seem comfortable enough to pull it off for light duty use. But in terms of what I look for in walking / hiking shoes, these are definitely on the heavier end. They remind me of old-school hiking boots. You know... the heavy, thick-sole, ankle-supporting, rain-proof, bullet-proof, last-through-anything kind. The exact kind I stopped wearing in my early twenties because by the end of a long hiking day it was like wearing lead weights.

So... standing and walking in them for a few hours, I'd say they should be fine. But if "looking around" includes hiking up and down hills / stairs, walking 10 or more miles in a day, or otherwise really hoofing it, I'd find a light-weight pair of urban hikers and pack them along.

I wear man like that and I'm perfectly comfortable. I actually worked in mine before and was completely fine.

Weeeell, it depends on what you're used to. The X5+ does have a stiff sole, but compared to cowboy boots which I wear frequently, the X5+ sole feels normal to me. I could do them as an everyday shoe though there are folks that couldn't.

I've worn mine every day for a week while on short rides, and I've worn them all day just walking around to break them in. No problems so far ... I might try going on a short hike this weekend to see if they can be OK even when the going gets a bit rough.
