Riding motocross can be an extremely dangerous sport, so it is vital that riders wear the equipment offering the highest protection. Unfortunately, like most things in life, consumers really do get what they pay for so when choosing your gear, please be sure to choose wisely.
Over the course of the last few years Sidi have continually produced the best motocross boots on the market. They are a proven standard and really give a lot of bang for your buck. Apart from boots, a helmet is just a close second in importance when it comes to protective gear. You can get away with not wearing a helmet but you will soon give up without boots. They protect the rider from rocks and other debris that are dislodged by the tires of the rider before you. It also protects the rider’s legs from being crushed by a fallen machine.
Over the last few years, a range of smaller, lesser known brands has made an entry to the market. They offer products for $70-130, but let’s face it, they really do not offer the protection that serious motocross riders really need.
On the other hand, Sidi Motocross boots are priced from as little as $120 (for kids) right through to the highest amount. The development of their products over the years means they do not just offer products of excellent function, but they are also extremely fashionable as well.
