    I've gone through 2 pairs of boots in two years. They end up loosing their waterproofing. The front of them is not really leather and ends up cracking.

    I would love a decent pair that wont fall apart.

    Don't wear steel toecap boots on a bike, if the front of the boot is pushed backwards hard enough the toecap can slice the toes off.

    Scrap the cap!

    I saw those Ricah ones in Cotters and they looked lovely. However someone on another thread here told me to stay away as the build quality is not great. Thoughts?

    Its the first pair of Richa ive had and so far they are holding up fine.
    I wear them daily while commuting and ive walked around in them for an hour or two and they were comfortable.

    No complaints here so far but i havent had them long.

    Btw, when ya saw me on the N7/M50. Were you the dude with the high vis on in front of me?
    I couldnt make out the bike.

    I always wear boots with composite toes (kevlar/carbon fibre mix) for this very reason ;)

    So I bought the TCX's, arrived today. Tried them on and they are a little tight - despite being the same size as my current ones, and the same as other brands I had tried on in shops. Will they loosen up can anyone tell me?

    My tcx touring boots loosened up after a few times wearing them but my tcx race boots didn't so I sold them.
