Leatherless boots

[Muttly]

I was offered some recommendations for leather free boots but the posts have vanquished.

If not too much trouble would you mind repeating the feat?

You might consider changing the title.

Leather free BOOTS.

Richa tracer evo

Dainese torque D1 out

RST tractech evo 3

Richa raintech

Alpinestars SMX-S waterproof

Also... Sidi have made a lot of leather free boots in the past, so worth looking at their range and the "ingredients"

Eg Sidi Black Rain Boots. No leather

If you google. Use the term "LORICA MOTORCYCLE BOOTS" as that is the most commonly used material as a leather alternative in a boot and you'll get plenty more results.

Why would you want non-leather? Personally (and this is just me I'm sure) but if I wear any kind of non-leather footwear within a few days they smell like week old summer roadkill. Then my wife makes me keep them in the shed.

I was wondering if there would be a smell issue. Is this the case with Lorica boots does anyone know?

Most boots are lorica https://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/motorcycle_parts/content_cat/851/(2;product_rating;DESC;0-0;all;86;90)

I had a pair of Sidi Black Rain EVO boots that were Lorica......I guess they did smell slightly worse than my leather boots......but spraying them with boot deodorising spray after each wear kept the smell to acceptable levels......
