Yep, hiking boots in the summer, riggers for winter. I am sure the last pair of riggers i got from screwfix had ankle pads and were £22 ;)

Seem to remember Lidl did some velcro fastener ones going back a few years. At the time I was pleased to get a set of waterproof bike boots after the last set from M&P turned out to be waterproof in the sence of a thin plastic bag between the lining and the outside, lasted about a few months before the insole moved and the plastic bag ripped. Added insult to injury as when I bought them online my card details were used to remove £1800 from my account - pretty damn sure this was down to my M&P purchase as that was my only card use in a month. I got the money back from the bank as it was fraud but let's say they ain't seen my custom since then. Thinking back on it I think I had 2 sets of those lidl bike boots over the years. Lasted quite well, especially given the bike was my only transport over those years so they got the abuse of all year round commuting, not being cleaned at all often and the odd leaky gearbox or petrol tank disaster - I hate how often fuel line proves not fit for perpouse and fractures after a few months. I found renapur leather treatment was ace at waterproofing any kind of leathers, boots to jackets.
Not sure if lidl still do the motorbike gear, not seen it in a while but it's that way with Lidl. When it was in stock it sold very fast and was pretty good.

I do most of my riding in London...so I take no chances and wear MX boots with shedloads of padding/protection.

I wear MX boots too had them donkeys years now. There getting a bit worn now with hardley any tread left on the soles.
I find there steel toes are great for leaving nice wavey scratches on car doors when they cut you up.
You would think there easy to get on as they open up alot but there far to stiff and heavy for him.
