Here are what I consider to be 10 of the best dirt bike boots available today. I’ll give you the positives and negatives of the gear, not just the positives.

I eliminate any product from my list that I wouldn’t use myself or be comfortable recommending to my friends. I do my due research to save you time and give you enough information for you to make an informed decision on what is best for your needs based on my 40 odd years in the business. Do I own every piece of equipment that I write a review on? No. In that time I have bought and worn out more gear than I care to remember. I have been riding dirt bikes of one kind or another for over 40 years.

With all that in mind, I have reviewed 10 boots, ranging from entry-level off-road boots to full-on enduro boots designed for competitive off-road riding, through to adventure boots that fall into that middle ground between street and dirt riding. Street boots aren’t up to the demands of riding off-road, and dirt-only boots are overkill and lack the comfort needed by adventure-touring riders who wear their boots all day, both off and on the bike.Īdventure riders may need to do a lot of walking in them, and generally wear their riding pants over the boot, so adventure boots are usually lower, more flexible in the foot, and waterproofing is a requirement given the occasional stream crossing and wet weather riding. They both share the same impact protection qualities, but the best dirt bike boots will also be more flexible in the ankle movement to make walking more comfortable.Īdventure riders are looking for different features in a boot from dirt bike riders. Motocross riders will be looking for a smoother sole to allow the boot to skim the ground when railing through a bermed corner, so a chunky tread pattern is not what they want. The best Dirt Bike boots for Enduro and Dual Sport riding will feature a sole with a deeper tread pattern for more traction when off the bike, or when negotiating a tricky obstacle like a slippery hill climb. The most noticeable difference is in the sole.

There are subtle differences between Motocross boots and Enduro or off-road boots.
