mojobanana Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 I've got Sidi Vertigo boots (like the look of the Alpinestars though) and they have vents. Haven't had an issue with hot feet with them yet. Wet feet, yes. Hot feet, no. (the vents have a habit of opening up when it's raining.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonkeyKnuckle Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 I have some SMX4s in black but can't say my feet have got particularly hot. The rest of me yes but not my feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 lack of circulation can cause hot feet are the boots too tight ? or leathers digging in to the back of your legs behind knees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimsoon Posted July 4, 2009 Author Share Posted July 4, 2009 could be tight boots, i do do 'em up pretty tight, think its cos they do up similar to my snowboard boots with the pull tight and slide toggle.when i get the bike back i'll try em a bit looser(spelling??)thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Can Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Consider the socks you wear too. I wear Bridgedale "coolmax" liner socks and that's it and my feet are fine in my non-biker but still full on gore-tex lowa mountain boots.The liner socks are designed to wick sweat away into your main socks and therefore help keep the feet cool and dry, but I just wear them on there own on the bike and that keeps em even cooler.happy dayscheck em outhttps://www.cotswoldoutdoor.com/webpoin ... 19-group2= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimsoon Posted July 5, 2009 Author Share Posted July 5, 2009 thanks for link, im looking at the EDZ? clothing too, might as well get some socks to match! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 When you take your boots off, do your feet feel as warm to the touch, as they actually feel? If not then may be circulation.. I have the same problem, and its because they are tight and the blood circulation isn't as it should be, so may just need to loosen them a little.
