They fit and are very comfortable. No issues shifting gears like I did with my last pair.

I slid off the road at a mere 12mph. The real issue was that the ditch was nothing more than a rain ditch. To explain this, it was no wider than 10inchs. So when my front wheel slipped in and my bike's rear continued sliding down the road.
This forced my bike onto it's side. My instinct was to put my foot down to keep it from going down. Sadly the momentum was enough to pin my boot and fling me over the side into a roll.
If it wasn't for these boots my left ankle would have been broken. So I get away with just some bruising a road rash.
These are some very sturdy boots. As my story explains; that not all accidents are a slide.

The shoes look amazing, just feel a little tight a few times at the beginning, but after a while they are very comfortable
Michael Y.
They are tight when you first get them but break in great

In person these look too much like xc ski boots. That said they are super comfortable and low profile.

A bit to tight but they look decent may have to break them in.

They’re comfortable shoes you can feel the feedback when shifting they’re also fairly sturdy

I think these are a decent pair of entry level WP boots, based on my initial impressions of a "break-in day" at work, and several sunny rides during free time. Break them in before riding!! You'll thank yourself when you're riding.
Order your usual size, and they will be VERY snug during the first few times you wear them; super uncomfortable. I wore them to work (where I stand 90% of the time) with thick cotton socks to help break them in faster. That was stupid uncomfortable and my feet where dying at the end of the day, but it was better to do that than be distracted by such discomfort while riding. It's way better now after several rides!! With thinner socks (tip: dress socks are thin, comfortable) these boots fit snugly for safety and security, but are comfortable (even on a warmer sunny day in Michigan). So, I'd recommend that anyone get their usual size and expect to do some sort of break-in process off the bike like I did to get the materials to relax to the shape of your feet.
I pull the laces pretty snug, tie a double knot, and wrap the loose lacing from the knot around the outside of the Velcro strap so they're secure, but held away from the foot controls.
NOTE that I have not run into any wet weather while riding, nor have I really tested the waterproofing by some other means. I don't go out of my way to ride in the rain, but I HATE getting wet feet on a ride when caught off guard.
I will say that during unboxing and inspection for defects, I didn't find anything beyond a few loose fibers here and there. I didn't notice any loose stitching, but it doesn't mean none won't come loose after break-in. The build quality seems good, and design seems to have ample protection for the toe, heel, and ankle.
YMMV, but these seem to be a good xhoice for beginner AND veteran riders looking for a basic sport-oriented WP motorcycle boot for everyday riding that isn't obnoxiously overpriced and gaudy AF. Their nondescript, blacked out look with reflective material on the heel is well thought out, and it means they can be worn in different situation without drawing too much attention. For ~$137 w/ tax and shipping, these are a REALLY good deal; even from my initial impressions. If possible, I'll try to update/refresh this review when I've got more time, mileage, and different weather conditions.
I wear these with HJC i10 helmet, Merlin Chigwell Light D3O jacket, Street & Steel Oakland riding jeans, and Reax Tasker short cuff gloves. I ride an '02 BMW R1150R.
Hoon responsibly!

Great Boots but it runs a little small as well as skinny so I would recommend to get 1 size above your shoe size
