Nice quick and to the point video!! I just got some Leatt 4.5 for my son today. They are pretty comfortable and seem to have decent protection. Should be an overall good and safe boot for the little bit of trail riding he does. I wanted protection for him, and comfortable too...i think they should be pretty good at both.
Thanks! Yeah I've had them about 7 months riding gnarly terrain weekly and they're still very comfortable. They did take a little time to get broken in I'll say. After a full day of ADV riding my feet were ready to escape, but they dont bother me all day anymore.
I don’t think the sidi would save your ankle in a crash, from the motocross perspective at least. Thats been my biggest concern since a big crash where I got separated from the bike. Im excited for the budget friendly motorcycle equipment that leatt puts out
Hmm I'd say Leatt's fit is more for slender feet in my opinion. I'd say you'd want to look at Gaerne for a wider foot. I did another Boot review for ADV boots and noted the Gaerne was a wider fit in general. So maybe checking out theGaerne SG-22 Enduro Or the Fastback would work for you better. Thanks!
So far so good man. They took a little bit to get broken in and used to a stiffer boot. But they're still rock solid after around 2000 miles of riding. The foot bed is showing some wear since I have sharper pegs.
I would definitely trust leatt way more for protection, comfort and stiffness maybe not but I have trusted leatt with my life many times including my chest protector and helmet. Don’t underestimate them, they are even used by professional motocrossers.
Leatt boots made in China, Sidi in Italy. Gaerne, Alpinestar and Sidi boots are everywhere in mx and Enduro, hardly ever see anyone running Leatt boots unless they're sponsored by them.
@@blairfwilloughbymost Sidi are made in Romania now, as are most “Italian” boots nowadays. I have 8, yes 8 pair of Sidi road/OffRoad and none are made in Italy.
Dude, Leatt is the dopeness! Love Mine
Great video! Excellent for people considering both boots.

The Sidi boots are meant for enduro not MX
Would leatt work well for wide feet?

W video
How have the leatts holding up?

Neither of them
Dude, Leatt is not even n the same league as Sidi or Gaerne
haha, I had that thought originally when I ordered both brands. The shin protection on the Sidi is pretty weak compared to most other boots too!
