Its stiff..... too stiff. It feels like snowboarding boots.


I took a quick ride and i dont enjoy it at all. I cant feel the shifter and constantly got false neutral.

Also i think my foot pegs need adjustment, maybe this is why aftermarket rearsets are common?


I call the store and they say the only track boots that are comfortable are Dainese in boots. Ofcourse that means i have to get Dainess suit.... Which sucks because i already bought a suit.
 
Fwiw that's how I felt with my first pair of real street boots. Took a couple days of riding.

They're supposed to be stiff (armour tends to be hard). They'll have a bit of a curve to the sole so yes you'll likely have to adjust the shifter a bit.
 
The person at the store does not know what they are talking about. I could take my Daytona boots for a jog.

Other boots are more uncomfortable but it could be you bought the wrong size or that you are not used to real boots.

This is normal. I've had two pairs of boots. Both had a break in period where I couldn't feel anything.
 
You don't need a Dainese suit to wear a Dainese boot. Correct me if I'm wrong.

My TCX boots felt like ski boots. I thought they all must.. until I got some Supertech Rs.

Yeah. Only 2 crashes on these though. 8 more until I think about new(used) ones (from Jordan)
 
I'll sell you my old pair, I think they're two seasons old but they smell like they're 20 seasons old. Washed before this season. Championship winning sweat will cost an extra $15 :)
 
Lol ....

The dainese in boots requires that extra shin armor don't they? After all they're made for the dainese suit.

BTW the boots I got is TCX r-s2 evo. Reviews say they're more comfortable than the supertech R..... Sigh...


What do I do? Where can I see the Daytona? I look at their pics online and hard to tell if they're track or touring boots

Dainese makes more than one boot. Their Axial Race or any of their "IN" boots work best with Dainese suits. Any of their "OUT" boots will work with just about any suit.

I just meant that I just wore regular boots prior to that. Like, everyday black leathet side zip boots. Will never ride with those again.
