Friend of mine rides to work most days and uses a backpack for shoes/pants/shirt/tie. Otherwise its riding shoes/low boots, riding pants and leather coat over his tee shirt for work. Also full face helmet, it easier to straighten out your hair when using a helmet than not, like removing dirt and getting bug guts out So he keeps a hair brush and face towel in his backpack. Five minutes or less in the restroom and he's a businessman.
He also gets there about 15 minutes before his coworkers and bosses do.
He also has a spare outfit/shoes he keeps hung at work as a just in case. Depends on if you have to be shirt and tie everyday or just most or some days.
+1 Nalian's suggestion on keeping a pair of dress shoe at work.
It may not be vital to "ride" with the proper boots on. But it sure is vital to crash with the proper boots on. I highly suggest if you want to give yourself thte best chance of keeping your feet and ankles in tact is to wear proper riding boots. Change when you get to work.
I have to wear a company supplied uniform at work so I get a locker. Maybe you can suggest a locker? I change at work and I leave my uniforms at work as well.
I ride with a suit, dress shoes with leather bottoms are bad, they are super slippers with any glavel on the ground, I rode once with dress shoes, never again. I also shine my shoes twice a week so they were very slippery and skuffed the top of my shoe from shifting. Bring either a book bag or saddle, or keep some in the work place. I put them in my saddlebag. Chaps are a good investment aswell, rain puddles from the night before can leave ugly stains on black dress pants
Also for a dress boot go with Dr.Martins- they are nice, comfortable and stylish.
Also if it is real warm out leave your suit coat at the office, suit coat+leather jacket+95 degree weather= smelly suit coat Trust me on this..
I would just leave my dress shoes at work under my desk. Then change out of my boots when I get there. I'd say leave your suit jacket too... if it doesn't need to be cleaned every night. Then again you probably don't wear the same suit every day?
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.
I have to dress business casual at work. I wear my regular business clothes and my work boots I use for riding. It doesn't look the best but no one has ever said anything. And I don't have to deal with customers either, so I don't really have that to worry about. YMMV.
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?
i love this site...thanks for all the suggestions...i'm gonna look into those mr. martins but i might just end up changing shoes when i get there...and being a broke college student right now i only have one suit...so leaving the jacket there will work for now...i don't have to meet customers in person...it'll just be over the phone if i do...im going to be a financial analyst...so i think i may also be able to pull off boots at work...we'll see...thanks alot! taking the motorcycle safety course in a month so can't wait to start riding full time to work
I take it one further than most have said on here:
On Monday, I drive to work with a couple shirts, dark and light slacks, and brown and black belts and matching shoes. The rest of the week is ridin' time baby! This way I can have some variety in my clothes; I work at a school, so I need to wear something different each day. Then on Friday afternoon, I pack up all my crap in my huge backpack and ride home. It works like a charm....
Any day I ride to work I'm in pretty early -- mostly to prevent being murdered by the homicidal a$$hat cager maniacs during rush hour on I-295! It also gives me opportunity to change clothes unobtrusively in the men's room. Not that I care what management thinks -- I'm pretty senior myself -- it just avoids a lot of "what are you doing" "what's that for" "what, you ride a motorcycle" questions from well-intentioned but clueless co-workers.
