Race Boots
Hot off the heels (get it?!) of our gloves special, we follow up with some super sweet boots this time around. It would appear on the outside, that crafting a proper set of boots is a lot easier than making decent gloves. We’d all be forgiven for thinking that’s the case, but it just isn’t.
The sheer range of movement your foot/ ankle/lower leg is capable of means there are all sorts of potential injuries a boot manufacturer must try and protect against. But much like gloves, there’s always the protection versus freedom of movement and loss of feel debate to be had. Some race boots can be properly stiff and unforgiving, at least until they’re wear in and this can take much longer in some cases than others.
