    Flailing injuries are very common in a motorcycle crash and proper riding footwear addresses that injury potential with heal cups and padded ankles. Dress for the crash....not the ride.

    Bates 3/4 with laces that never have to be used and a side zipper most of the time. Sometimes just my Skechers.

    I wear Bates Durashocks. They are actually a duty boot, similar to jump boots. They are lace-up with a side zipper and they come in wide sizes. I buy mine from "The Working Person's Store" online. About a hundred dollars. They wear forever, take a good shine, and are comfortable to walk in

    Milwaukee stomp boots. Been wearing them for YEARS

    (Though the below link shows that they're discontinued... you can still find them elsewhere)

    Riding boot

    That suggested replacement is pretty close to what I wear. Loggers; they've saved me many times working and a few times riding.
