Icon Accelerant Waterproof Boots
Anyone have them ?
They seem like a pretty decent boot for around town or a quick jaunt. Sometimes if I'm riding somewhere and will be getting off the bike and walking around quite a bit these may come in handy. They have some protection and would be more comfortable than a racing style boot I believe. I like my A* boots when I'm on the bike but don't care too much for them if I'm doing a lot of walking but happen to be out on the bike. I found them for $100 shipped which seems like a decent deal. Icon Accelerant Waterproof Boots When it comes to riding in the wet, it has always been a toss-up. Deal with soaked feet or wear a set of hideous black waterproof touring boots straight out of the Star Trek prop room. Until now. Introducing the Accelerant Waterproof Boot. The Accelerant is 100% waterproof, making it the ultimate performance based street specific riding boot. It’s also the lightest boot we have ever produced. But that doesn’t mean for a second that Icon compromised on a single aspect of safety or durability. The Accelerant Waterproof Boot comes standard with a shin deflector strap and is reinforced with an aluminum positive lock buckle. Inside the ultra-comfortable midsole, you’ll find a full steel shank for support. Finally, it features a specially designed pro-grip compound rubber outsole. The new Accelerant Waterproof Boot is low-key with casual styling, but maxed out with functionality and comfort. Durable leather/nylon upper 100% waterproof Internal steel shank for support Internal ankle armor Shin deflection strap Aluminum positive lock buckle Lightweight construction Anti slip rubber compound Imported |

I have the Field Armor boots and can vouch for their comfort and protection. BTW my experience with waterproof boots is that they get soaked from the inside out!

I may pick up a pair for $100 shipped from another place I saw them listed. I still have my A* SMX boots for the longer rides. |
