    Those Tony Lama boots look pretty cool not what I thought when you said cowboy boots.
    I have Bates Tactical Boots. Very comfortable and waterproof.

    They ain't dress boats. Some folks git Cowboy boots cause you can git them waterproof, they are durable, No boot strings to hang on anything.
    Pair I have now I've has since 06 and I ride with them. They ain't water proof.
    Was too hard to break in.

    Make sure you get rubber soles or you will have fun with trying to move bike or keep uptight

    Leather soles don't work well

    Here is a pair of Harley leather boots that are water proof and have zip up sides. And non-slip soles. I have been wearing them for the last 3 years summer and winter. They are a great pair of boots.

    CB, the boots I showed you don't leak water. You know it rains here a lot and my feet stay warm and dry. They are very comfortable boots to. I did put a quality pad in the boot to ad in the comfort. I can walk for miles in them, I love em. The pair I showed you are a pic of them on E-Bay. Like any boot you do need to keep them treated.

    keep them treated,
    It sure helps leather out a lot to keep them treated , mink oil , saddle soap , there's a few more good ones , they even make a spray for around the edges ,I treat all my leathers boots, chaps, jacket :D, makes them last longer & keeps you dry

    I had the GM of the dealer of the HOG group that I use to belong to ask the chapter to turn in their riding boots for some charity. I thought to myself, "FUG THAT!" One just can't get rid of their boots! :wtf:
