Stylmartin Vintage Boots

There are more than a few resources for obtaining vintage plastic or fiberglass reproduction body work for your vintage bikes not to mention other replacement parts if you are lucky, but what about clothing, specifically boots?


Stylmartin Continental "Vintage" Touring Boots

The boots described in this review of Stylmartin Continental Touring Boots are one possibility. They are offered more as a "touring" road-going boot which is reasonable. They are available in the colors black or red(above).


Alpinestar 2020 Supervictory Steel Plate Boots

These are my favorite reproduction enduro/off-road boots. And the one true enduro boot on this list. I own a well worn pair of Alpinestar Supervictory Boots that I mostly use in vintage events and are well worn enough that they should probably be replaced. I had purchased my pair at Metro Racing who no longer appears to sell them but I did find them still available. They are excellent boots that give a lot of feel for the controls. But at the same time, they do not have a lot of the integrated hard plastic that provides the extra protection available on more modern boots. Still, they are the closest boots manufactured today duplicating that old school vintage look and function.


Alerostich Combat Touring Boots

Not really vintage or serious off road boots, but if one were looking for some mild "dual sport" boots, these would work. These boots are the equivalent of 50/50 dual sport motorcycle tires. They look like real off road boots but are really better for touring.

Cited in the Stylmartin's review and very similar in style. Available in Black or Brown. The most economical of the group.
