boots made for riding motorcycles
Motorcycle boots range from extremely technical models more akin to athletic footwear like ski boots or athletic shoes, as for racing and offroad travel, to casual styles adapted for motorcycle use with additional armor or protection, to traditional styles merely marketed as popular among motorcycle riders, such as horse riding boots, military boots, and engineer boots.
Motorcycle boots including armor and other impact protections may be designed to meet safety standards and certifications, such as those of the European Union.
