Those are perfectly fine for riding. Good boots.
A dog had his chain reduced one link at a time, every few days, until his chain was so short he could barely move. He never resisted because he was conditioned to the loss of his freedom slowly, over time. Are we in this country becoming like the dog?

those are great boots... they are very comfortable for both riding. they're also pretty comfortable if you have to stand/walk in them all day...
