Simply Wonderful - Spoil Yourself and Get These Boots
I looked at every boot on this site before buying these Daytonas. It was a close choice between the $300 Dianese boots and these and I'm so glad I picked the Daytonas. First I'll tell you that the pictures of these boots do not do them justice. In the images they look like the golashes I had when I was a kid, but in person they are stylish and very cool looking. Now to the important stuff, the fit. These boots are amazingly comfortable and have several Velcro adjustments that will let you loosen and tighten them as needed. I also applied a little silicon oil (that came with my Shoei helmet) to the zipper so that it would close a little faster and easier. This helped because when you fit the boots tightly the zipper can struggle a little on the curve. I wore the boots tightly for a day (around the house) to break them in, then I adjusted them (Velcro on back) for a more comfortable fit making it easier to shift my bike (low shifter pedal) and more comfortable to wear after riding. My main concern (vs.the Dianese boot) was the lateral ankle support. I would not be concerned about this as these boots offer plenty of support and can be easily tightened to offer more support if desired. After having these boots for a week now (and riding frequently) I can honestly say that I'm in love with these boots, they might be the best pair of boots I have ever owned. They fit me (with slight adjustment) as if they were custom made for my feet. I can feel the protective chin and ankle gards skillfully concealed in the layers of leather ensuring I will avoid injury in an accident, yet they are comfortable enough to wear frequently (in fact I'm wearing them right now as I write this). If you can afford these boots and you're on the fence, I would spend the money and get them. Hands down one of the best pair of motorcycle boots I've ever owned, and I'm sure they will last (given their obvious quality workmanship) for many years to come. Don't settle and save a few bucks, spoil yourself and get the best. Buy yourself these Daytonas.

High quality. Great option for wide feet.
I have a wide foot and high instep and this is the first pair of motorcycle boots that really fit me (44 wide on a 10 1/2 to 11 4E foot) . My previous boots were Sidi Mega Rain in size 45 which were ok but a little tight for me in the toe area. The Daytona boots are significantly wider in the toe area, which is great for me. They go on and off easily, which is unusual for me. There is also plenty of adjustment for my large calves. I just returned from a 4000 mile trip on which I encountered all kinds of weather, including hot, cold, and rain. The boots performed perfectly on the bike with no leaks during one day of moderate to very heavy rain during most of the day. The only ventilation is the Gore-tex, but my feet didn't feel overheated or clammy even on some long hot days. The quality of materials and construction appears very high in all respects, and I expect them to last a long time. I particularly like the quality of the leather, the dual zippers, and the smooth finish inside. The boots are walkable off the bike, but keep in mind that these are fairly tall boots with substantial armor so I don't expect to be hiking any distance in them.

Hot feet, no more!
Comfortable boot. I wear size 11 and the RV specialist recommended size 44, perfect. My feet are usually hot so I wanted to try Gore Tex. After riding through Death Valley today with temperatures nearing 100, I was comfortable. No soaking wet socks as with previous boots. The only reason I'm not giving a five rating, is that these are expensive boots with the directions stating that the boots and zippers need to be treated with two different products before wearing? Really? You want to try them out when receiving them. Couldn't they provide a small sample to get them wearable? Might lead to future sales of the products. Other than that annoying tidbit, all is good. Fit under jeans and don't exhibit the garish look so many other boots seem to relish.

These are the boots you want if you need Gore-Tex and want a full featured boot
I got these based on a few reviews I read.

They do fit one typical size lower than what you would normally get (eg 46 A* boot would be 45 in these).

The best part from moving from a plastic shelled race boot is obviously no more squeaks when walking. These are also supremely comfortable over long distances. One of the best features are the dual side zippers which make getting in and out of the boot fast and comfortable. The rear calf adjustments are ingenious as well.

If you have ever had issues getting your pants tucked in your boots or getting good calf fits, these are your boots.

I just did a ~3k mile Gap trip over 6 days and I would wear these all day long (12+hrs) and had no issues. They don't flow air per-se...but they aren't overly thick and are more than manageable in 95f+ degree heat. In that kind of heat everything is hot, so its not like your feet would stand out as a discomfort point.

Totally waterproof as far as I'm concerned. I went through two big storms and had exactly 0 concern about the waterproofness of this boot.

NOTE: you need to plan on buying the full care product kit for these, thats the zipper lube, polish, conditioner and water proofer restorer thingy-stuff. Its about $65 worth of care products and you will want those to treat these boots right. Revzilla sells all that stuff.

Most boots with decent usage will get you 3 hard years of life out of them. If you take care of these properly you can probably gun for 8-10yrs if you do it right.

These aren't cheap, but if you are ready to get some really good gear then your boots should not be overlooked. These are ideal for ANY street riding (non-track). If you go offroad you may want something more traditional and protective.

Awesome comfortable and dry boot
The Daytona Roadstar GTX boots are an exceptional product as you would expect from Germany. The Size chart on the Revzilla website is totally incorrect. It says a 46 converts to a 12.5. No way! I found a 47 converts to a 12 so don't use the conversion chart.

Just spend the money already. It doesn't get better.
If you take away nothing else: these have all the armor you really need for touring. They just don't look like it.

Fit:
42 seems to have been the right choice for my slightly-wider-than-9D feet. Loving that these aren't as narrow as so many of the Italian boots out there. They fit just wonderfully. Well, the right boot is a tad tight around the widest part of my foot. But it seems like the sort of thing that will be long-gone after break-in. All my favorite shoes/gloves started off the slightest bit tight.

Comfort:
Coming from basic Sidi riding shoes and non-proper (read: thin and unarmored) leather riding boots, these are a bit of an adjustment. They're quite thick all around due to the Gore-Tex membrane, thick leather and hidden steel shanks. My feet have a lot less "feel" than I'm used to. The bulkier boot is going to require that I adjust the shifter and more of the pressure and clicking nuances of the foot controls are M.I.A. But again, this is probably just a matter of getting used to the boots.

Heat:
They're definitely warmer than my thinner boots. But on 80-something degree days I'm not totally dying and sweat is at a minimum. I'm sure the slight extra heat is a small price to pay for the level of protection/windproofness/waterproofness the boots offer. Certainly they're a crapload more breathable than the Sidi Adventure Rain boots I tried for an afternoon. With those, I was sweating in air conditioning.

Armor:
Subtle steel shanks in all the right places with padding so you don't feel them. If you were to look at this boot and didn't know Daytona's reputation, you'd think they weren't really armored. Not true. There's a decent level of flex, enough to be comfortable. Good enough crush resistance for me. There's not any focus on torsion resistance though. But again, they're for touring not the track.

Overall Quality
I've honestly never seen a motorcycle boot with this level of refinement in material quality and construction. I'd compare the quality to the likes of Arc'teryx.

My Daily Commuters
I've been wearing these Daily for the past two years. I really don't think there is a better boot for 4 season commuters.

It's hard to find boots that are protective but comfortable enough to hop of the bike and walk around in. These fit the bill and some. Can't recommend them enough. My most used/versatile piece of gear.

Very Comfortable, truly waterproof boots
I've had 3-4 pairs of cheaper boots in the past and while they did the job these Daytona feel much better. Fit is excellent and they are very comfortable to walk around with. Other boots I wouldn't know if I was pressing the rear brake or touching the gear lever. With the Daytonas I have good feel of what my feet are doing.

Have been through 3 major downpours and my feet have stayed completely dry. After 3000 miles on them I see no signs of wear.

The curved zipper may look strange but after a couple of rides (don't need more to break them in) it zips up and down like if it was completely straight. I'm very happy with these boots

Amazing quality. These boots are hand made and you can tell every time you put them on. Way ahead of the typical "Italian" brands that are basically plastic and metal boots made somewhere in eastern Europe. I use these on track and very happy with the level of protection -- full leather unlike the other brands.

My old pair are 30 years old now, and need to be replaced. Tried other boots, and not as all around as the Daytonas.

This is my second pair of Daytona Road Stars. First pair lasted 12 years, resoled once. They are warm but fit like a glove with all the adjustability in the calf area. Waterproof without a doubt, durable construction that lasts and lasts, and walk around comfort without pinch points or squeaking sum this boot up for me.

Why did I choose Daytona Road Star GTX Boots? Because warm, dry, protected feet are priceless.......
Jimmy H on Aug 31, 2017
After deciding to get a pair of Daytona Road Star GTX as my touring boots, I kind of hesitates which size should I choose.
7 out of 10 of my shoes are US size 10.5, 2 are size 10, 1 are size 11 and I always use EU size 44 as my default sizing.
"Daytona size is not EU size..."
"Daytona tends to wear Large..."
The reviews here also have many "spot on" experience when choosing Daytona boots with their original EU sizes.

To me, if the boots are large for me, I can put some insoles inside, but if they are small, returning is the only option.

Should I pick 43 or 44 ?

Greetings

Samuel Lin
A shopper on Aug 31, 2015
BEST ANSWER: I have the Road Star GTX in size 44, and they fit perfectly. I wear a 10.5 shoe typically.
Do these boots have rigid ankle protection? Does it protect against ankle rolls and crush impact (ie, bike crushing ankle on a low-side)? I know they are highly regarded but I'm trying to understand where they fit on a comfort vs absolute protection spectrum. I'm currently wearing Dianese TRQ-Tour's which I picked for their rigid ankle protection.
Jeff W on Oct 7, 2013
BEST ANSWER: The Road Stars do not have a TPU exoskeleton as some boots now have. There are pucks sewn in to prevent ankle sliding damage however there is minimal hyperextension protection. There is a flexible steel shank to assist in crush protection of the sole. I have 6 pair of top quality boots in the MC closet and none offer the on bike and off bike comfort of the Road Star. I do have some that possibly offer better protection.
Can anyone comment on 1) durability of the zippers 2) easy of taking on and off and 3) tactile feel of the bike foot controls? I will use these boots daily for commuting so these are important for me.

I've been wearing a BMW All Round boot now for a little over a year. They have been extremely comfortable and are very easy to get on and off during my daily commute. Also they allow me to feel and operate the bike's foot controls better than any other boot I've currently used: which I admit is only a few.

Unfortunately I've had to replace them under warranty because after 6 months of break in, the leather AND ZIPPER creased so badly near one ankle that the zipper eventually stopped working. I can tell the same thing is happening again.

Ease of taking on and off are pretty important too as I'm typically changing shoes in a parking lot to and from work.

Finally, I have another pair of boots (Sidi Canyon Gor-Tex) but they have been very stiff and make the controls difficult to 'feel' and sometimes even operate. Do these give you good tactile feel of the bike's foot controls?

BEST ANSWER: These boots are bomb proof. I have had good Sidi , and Alpinestar boots and the Daytona's are better quality including the zippers. I don't see the zippers ever being a issue. The double zippers make sure there is not much tension on the zippers. These were also the most comfortable boots i have ever had in 30 years of riding. (currently Ducati Multistrada}. I put 10k on these boots over the summer and there is no signs of wear at all. As advertised they are 100% waterproof and not that warm on hot days. The tactile feel from the boots is excellent as the boot has good flex. On and off is very quick and the inner liner is very smooth on the skin. I could have afforded to buy any boot and i spent the money to import these boots from the USA to Canada. I don't think you will find a better boot .
So I have a pair of road stars. 13 yrs old, resoled once and I think they are finally done. Zippers are starting to go and I've tried seam gripping the shifter pads more than once. My question is, is there any reason to believe sizing has changed? I see the sole is different and slight cosmetic changes. These have been the best investment in motorcycle equipment I ever made.

BEST ANSWER: if in this day and age, where everything is made to autocombust, you still want your boots to last more than 13 years, or you come from Venus or you come from Mars.
Buy another pair, keep them being made in Germany!

As a side note, I am about to change my worn out tires (Pirelli Scorpions made in Germany) for Pirelli Diablo Rosso made in ... China...

shall I?

cheers,

Do these boots stretch across the vamp? (top and sides of the boot where it curves)
I tried some on in store and 45 was defintely my size but it was a bit snug in that area........
Jesse G on Jan 29, 2014
BEST ANSWER: yes when I got my boots they where snug on the sides but they do break in and now they fit great. I even forget I have them on
Hello . I am very interested in these Daytona Road Star GTX Boots.
I wear size 45 wide shoes. Should I order 45w in these boots or are the daytona sizing a bit small so would you suggest I get the 46 Wide just in case ?
RG1007 on Oct 22, 2014
BEST ANSWER: I wear a US size 12 shoe. When I purchased these boots I ordered a size 46 thinking they may run small. Size 12 fell between a 45 and 46. I ended up returning them for a size 45. The reason was my heals would slide up and down in the 46 boot when I walked around in them. The 45 were a little snug at first and now fit perfect after a summer of riding and about 4,500 miles. These are by far the best boots I have ever owned.

Revzilla customer service was very helpful with the return of the size 46 boot and shipping of the 45.
I wear an 11.5 in shoes and want to see what size you all recommend? The size chart recommends 45... Also, I have tried a few other boots that are similar and the calf areas were huge. My calf measures 16.5 inches. How well does it fit in that area?
A shopper on Mar 17, 2014
BEST ANSWER: I wear size 11.5 and the 45 fits great you will love the boots. when you first put them on they will fit snug but they will break in.
How tall are these boots? I've been wearing 11" boots and find that just the right height for touring
A shopper on Jan 21, 2014
BEST ANSWER: First I have to say, the boots are extremely well made. As for the height, measured from the side it is 11", the front is a little taller, comes in at 13". The size was true to the chart, so fit was spot on. I have ridden in them 4 times since purchasing, various degree temperature, low 40 - to low 70 and it has been comfortable.
How does this boot compare up against the Dainese TRQ Tour boot? Is it worth the extra money? Will this fit inside something like the Dainese New Drake Air Textile pants?

As far as sizing goes, I'm normally a 9.5 but have feet on the wide side, normally like getting wide sizing. There seems to be no wide size for the 42, should I just go up to a 43?
Justin A on May 29, 2014
BEST ANSWER: I can't answer your question regarding the comparison with the Dianese boots. My other boots are Alpinestar Supertech Rs. They do fit under my Levi 550 jeans (which are under my Aerostich Roadcrafter). I'm not familiar with the pants you mentioned, but if they are an overpant with a zipper on the lower leg, I would think they should fit under them just fine.

Regarding sizing, I went to Revzilla in Philly to buy both boots (about a year apart), and tried on Sidis and Dianeses before choosing the Supertechs. For the other boots, 44 was the size, but for the Supertechs, 43 fit best. Based on my previous sizing, I was a little surprised to find 43 in the Daytonas also fit best. My US shoe size is 9 on the wider size. You might want to try a 44 for starters.
I wear a 10.5 to 11 shoe size. What size should I order these on? Men size! Thanks
A C on Aug 27, 2016
BEST ANSWER: I wear a 10 to 10.5 and got the 44 boot. Very comfortable boots.
