Not from ml seems to have stock issues still waiting for my belstaff gloves be interested in trying the short klim boot

I’m going to give you my impression because, even though we have had some of the Daytonas in for customers, and even though we are huge Daytona fans, I have not ridden in a pair. The Daytona Trans Tourmans are incredibly strong and well built, but we have not ranged them because we thought they were simply too heavy, too cumbersome and too expensive. If you want the the very best made, most robust adventure boots on the market, go for the Daytonas. But the Klims are going to be much nicer to live with.

@@Motolegends Thanks for your swift reply! I think I’ll give the Daytona a try as I’m so convinced by their craftsmanship after all. The design is quite different but in this case I’d favour function over form.

@@AIXpi Well, how about a report on the boots, AIXpi?

Pretty strong. As strong as anything other than the big plastic ones but might depend on how heavy the bike that lands on you is!

@@Motolegends the average 450 lbs adv bike….

Dear Manuel, The Sidi Adventure 2 is a great boot. They kind of invented this category. They are a supremely strong boot, and probably more robust than the Klims. I would say they were better suited to the more serious end of adventure riding. I have had a pair, and they are impressive, but they do not cross categories in the quite the way the Klims do. The Klim boots will cope with gentle off-road work, but they are not what you would choose for the really gnarly stuff. But for the road and for walking off the bike, the Klims are in a different league to the Sidis. The Klims are therefore better all rounders. The Sidis are also technically dual purpose, but they are further down the off-road continuum than the Klims.

Arvind I have the exact same question. Worried about the heavy and big toe box and the lack of ankle support on the Klim’s. Which one did you go with?

@@CorporateAdventurer I'm still riding with my Royal Enfield boots... But got to make a decision sooner... Somehow felt Klims might not be the best option... Durability, toe box might impact gear shifting, lack of ankle support, etc are in favour of Gaerne... If you are in or around Mumbai, best to try out the Gaerne at LABS showroom and pick it up...

@@dudefromcbee exactly paying LABS a visit. They have the Gaerne’s and I am from pune so also looking at Tech 7s at DSG. The only bad thing I’ve heard about the Gaerne’s are that they are really squeaky. I wish we had Sidi’s available in India via LABs.

@@CorporateAdventurer Have only heard people complain about Sidis for being squeaky. But that shouldn't stop you from buying what's best between Gaerne and Sidi...

I've ridden in mine once but have put at least 100miles on them walking and snowshoeing

Climb but drop the “b” at the end. Well, at least that’s how the Klim folks pronounced it when I was able to get a factory tour a few years back.

@@Chris-hj3lc or maybe they don’t know how to pronounce their own name? 😂😂😂 I pronounce it wrong as well. “Climb”

He’s just having fun. He knows how they pronounce it.

It’s definitely KLIM not climb. If KLIM had an e at the end, it would be pronounced climb because the e changes the sound of the i.

Dear Jamie, What comes across is that you decided you wanted to be rude about these boots, and the people you perceived would be wearing them, before you watched or listened to the review, if you ever actually did do so. And I suggest this because it is made absolutely clear in the review that these are not proper, outright, off-road boots. So you have brought absolutely nothing new to the table. The Klims are adventure or dual-sport boots for those who want to mix road riding with some trail riding and a bit of walking. I understand that some people don’t need an excuse to be rude, but it would seem that because the wearers of boots like this are not like you and don’t ride perhaps where you ride, they are worthy of being termed ‘poseurs’. This is clearly your favoured term of abuse, as you use it twice in your short review, albeit incorrectly spelt. Really, if you have nothing interesting or insightful to say, you should perhaps hold, rather than express, an opinion. You have said nothing about the boots that we had not already made abundantly clear. Not sure also that I agree with your central premise about waterproofing. On an off-road bike you would need to be in pretty deep water for it to come over the shaft. This kind of water is, in no way, totally implicit in all off-road riding. And if your are in shallower water, say less that two feet, you will be much dryer in the Klims than you would be in a classic, non-waterproof, off-road boot.

@@Motolegends no waterproof it not something that anyone that goes adventure ridings want. Water crossing floods boots. And they don't dry over night. It is a good looking ok. But it is a street boot. Not an adventure boot. You review is more selling g with misreading impression. It was just like you review about the sas tec armor.being 50% better the ghost. Just by saying ce level 2 is 2x better the ce level 1. Sell With facts to give people the right facts before they choose the wrong product.

@@jamiemui5186 they don't except the fact and feed back that the entire boot is dependent on a single bow rope . Once the rope breaks the boot is of no use at all .

Everyone rides differently.

@@oklahomahank2378 yes that is why there are adventure boots for real adventure rider and not real adventure boot for the casual rider.

Why?

@@TheQQRYQ80 why they will leak on u and not i had they 1st 1 month trip end up with wet feet then send it back for warranty payed 40$ shipping to them they send me new one's that I still have in the box for sale now dont want to take any chances with it useing forma for 6 years now and replace them every 4 year because they start leaking after 4 yeas but more cunffy then klim only makes good jacket and pants but rest not so good

​@grego10r thanks I'll get alpinestars toucan instead. Also I'm worrying about the Boa system that cable can snapped and you gave send them back for warranty again

@@TheQQRYQ80 yet cables over time becomes slow old shool brackets r the best I use forma boots now and love it

@@grego10r I’ve never experienced leaking boots so far. I have two pairs of Daytonas because I ride a lot and they both are more than 10 years old and still working fine.
