well my old boots are showing the abuse they have been through so I'm thinking it's time for new.
I'm looking at the Sidi Vert Corsa, but what color
white?

What do the leathers look like that these boots will go with? How about the helmet and gloves? Gotta see the whole ensemble to decide! :)

neither of which I plan on replacing anytime soon, unless of course something bad happens and I'm forced to.

I dont like that white turns yellow with exposure to UV and chemical spills. I say go with the darker boots.

sweet, but way too much $$$ for my poor ass to justify. Maybe when I make it onto an AMA grid you could buy them for me

The black are SWEET and there is a reason people like Mat Mladin, Jason Pridmore and Nicky Hayden (when he was racing AMA) wear them.

They are the BEST.

BTW - Mat's Joe Rocket boots are Daytona's rebadged as JR's (notice the inner boot in the pic).:ride:

Omie, have you tried them on? I hear from many people (and myself) that the adjustment across the instep is very uncomfortable. You end up leaving it loose and then it breaks.

Yea, the reason being they're sponsored. If they were just doing track days or even your little ccs/wera races and had to pay for their own gear, they'd be wearin Sidi like the rest of us(generally speaking.)

They are the BEST.
Which style are yours?

Go with the black. I have these boots and they are great. I do not mind the adjustment over the top of the foot, I think it makes them much more comfortable.

Not true If you don't take care of it they will....... You have to clean it every so often so it don't trun yellow. I have a white jacket and its not yellow.

Joe, I just saw this and aside from you not knowing anything about Frey boots and why Mat and Nicky have them re-logo'd makes you look stupid.

As for your "little ccs/wera races" comment....I'll leave that one alone.

Wasn't talking about the "re-logoing" dude. Talking about them not having to pay for their own gear...so no shit they're gonna have the best of the best. If you were paying so much attention to what I was saying you would of answered the 2nd question ;)

The original post is a question on a $250 pair of Sidi's, not some $1000 pair of boots.

You're arguments are very superficial.
