So, even though I didn't buy these from Revzilla I'm still going to do a review because I love it his website. These boots are comfortable straight out of the box. The new design looks great and they are some of the best looking boots on the market. The toe is refined and not too large and boxy like a lot of the other boots. I wore these while riding my DRZ in the PNW and it rained all day. We went through multiple puddles, streams, and tons of mud; my feet stayed warm and dry all day even though my riding buddy's were soaked. The goretex liners did a great job in keeping me warm and dry, but these boots may be a bit hot in the summer weather. I had three low speed crashes (10 mph) in really muddy sections and the boots stood up to the he abuse well. If you're on the fence about weather to buy them or not, just buy these boots because they are awesome!

I bought Adventure 2's to replace a well worn pair of Aerostich Combat Touring boots for and upcoming 20 day trip to Baja. I expected to pay a price in walkability and overall comfort for upgraded protection. I was immediately surprised by the comfort of the boots right out of the box; no break in required. I wear a 12.5 US shoe and have a narrow foot. The 47 fit is spot on for me. Because of the hinged construction, the boots are amazingly comfortable to walk in. I think the hinge construction also makes operating the shift and brake easier than in some other boots with comparable protection. The Adventure 2's are easy to put on and off; the buckles work very well. I wear over the calf socks and the comfort around the top of the boot is also excellent. I am very please with the boots, and look forward to many miles with them.

Been riding on these for a few hundred miles so far. I'm very happy with the comfort. My old Sidi boots took some time to break in. These felt great out of the box. I were these with jeans as well as riding pants no problem with pants fitting over the top. I'm a size 13 in running shoes 12 in dress shoes. I ordered size 12.5 US and they fit perfectly. I would recommend these for street or adventure riding.

I wanted a pair of waterproof boots for use on long distance rides both on and off road. Given the general price range of this boot category, I wanted to ensure my purchase would hold up for several years and many thousands of miles. I selected the Sidi Adv 2 based on reviews and a previous experience with Sidi quality.

Although I'm pleased with the Sidis thus far, this review is based solely on off road use. The boots arrived in the mail a couple days before I flew out to Rawhyde Offroad Adventures' California ranch for their Intro to Offroad Riding course. [Side note: I can't recommend this course highly enough. Exemplary coaching and skill development. Investing in good gear is helpful but investing in your abilities is paramount. It increases enjoyment, safety, and allows you to access so much more on your bike.]

Like many, my shoe size differs based on the manufacturer. I ordered size 45 and they fit just SLIGHTLY large with regular socks. However, I removed the stock insole and threw in a Superfeet Green size E insole and the fit is perfect. My foot is average to narrow with a normal arch. For comparison, I wear a size 11.5 Salomon trail running shoe and they fit perfectly. I also wear 11.5 in Nike but my military boots (Garmont) are 10.5.

Although the outsole is beefy and thick, I found the Sidis to be comfortable to walk in (but I would carry proper footwear if I wanted to hike more than 5 miles over anything more than intermediate terrain). I wore them around the house for two days to break in and then wore them on the plane out to Rawhyde. No issues. I was even able to fit them under a pair of boot cut pants (skinny jeans need not apply). Micro-adjustment of the buckles is easy and allows you to dial in "the squeeze" to your preference.

The boots performed very well during the Offroad riding course. I rode an R1200GS and the boots provided great protection on the shins, ankles, heel and toe. With a pair of over-the-calf wool ski socks, my feet stayed comfortable from both a heat and friction standpoint. I'm sure the feet can get warm during long, hot days but it's easy to open the velcro tops for a quick air out during breaks. Although I have a bad ankle, the hard plastic exoskeleton provides solid stability; I didn't experience any rolls or twists when dabbing or planting the foot in sand, off-camber dirt or gravel. The shin plate protected against low branch strikes and a couple slow-speed falls.

From a riding standpoint, the boots do have a thick toe box and sole, which obviously gives less tactile feedback on peg placement than a boot with thinner soles. From a seated position, I didn't have any issues finding the rear brake or the shifter. However, I needed more time and practice to get comfortable shifting and braking from the standing position. This was especially true when upshifting and when lightly scraping the rear brake during certain drills. Riders with more experience than me will likely have a steeper learning curve but I know I'll be putting in more reps until the feel becomes second nature.

Overall, I'm glad I selected these boots. So far, I haven't found them to lack any features found in other brands. Yes, they are expensive but they're made in Italy and imported; I'd be concerned if they weren't pricey. As to the squeak, walk less and ride more! But buy whatever gets you out riding.

These break in within a day and are super comfortable. They saved my leg at least twice already. Great boots with great traction and comfort both on and off the bike.

Im a 10.5 sneaker I ordered a 45 and the fit is perfect these boots are so comfy. I rode in them twice shifting up is difficult but they are still breaking in. I have also been walking in them around the house and they just started to squeak. I didn't find it to be a problem it doesn't annoy me at all and they are soooooo comfortable I love them.

I have Forma low and have walked around all day with these, SIDI Discovery Rain Boots and now these. By FAR these boots exceeded my expectations.

Bad Ass looking, SUPER comfortable right out of the box (wore them for about 2 hours around the house, LOL). Rode a couple of hours on Tarmac and a couple of hours off-road, mud, water crossing (actually waded in about 10 inches of water test the bottom before going through and stayed dry).

I must admit though, I had some issues shifting while standing up on the pegs (Just inexperience with them). Sitting down shifting wasn't a problem.

If you're considering an off-road boot, spend the damn money and look NO FURTHER. You too will be impressed.

For its purpose of all around boot this does the job. Tall, and Dry. Nice and wide girth up top but flexible to fit around knee brace of extra shin padding. Feet stayed warm even in 25F temps and 70+ MPH. Wasn't expecting them too. Nice room in toe box to allow occasional thicker socks. But extra airspace in toe box helps with warmth IMO.

Great boot overall; however if you are new to adventure boots their is a learning curve in terms of feel. To explain further, the boot offers so much protection that you lose control of the feel for brake input and gear shifting. I scared the bejesus out of myself when I went around a bend and could / didn't know whether or not I was applying the brakes or not. After a while you get use to the feel and all is well again. Just my humble opinion as I am new to this type of boot.

They are ever thing their ads say. They have kept my feet dry in the rain, warm during cold mornings. They even have their patented squeek. Just taking some time to adjust my breaking and shif ting to the new boots. Would buy again whenever they wear out.
