No ma'am. I'm used to wearing some sort of a lug-soled shoe most of the time, however, so maybe I've just adjusted my step/shift style to accommodate. But they've worked really well for me (and no scrapes yet from the shifter - yay!).

Cheers,

Is okay, dude....I have seen women riding wearing boots like that. Fine if you don't have to walk around much and want to sit on the bike and "look good!" :bling:

You're forgiven..... how long did it take you to find those???

I've been really pleased with my Sidi boots... I have three pair now and they are by far the most comfortable boot I've ever worn. I wear them all day when I ride the bike to work and I've even done some easy, short-distance hiking in them with no issues. :)[/list]

Which Sidi's have you worn? I'm thinking of purchasing the Ladies B2's and wouldn't mind an opinion before I put down $200+ on them.

I have the Champion Air (for summer) and recently replaced my Sidi Sport Rain Boot with the Canyon Gore-Tex for winter. Every single pair I've worn have been comfortable from the get go. The style you're looking at is more "race" oriented while I prefer a touring style boot so not sure if we're comparing apples with apples. If there is a dealer near you that you can try some on, that would be the best thing. :)

So when you look for boots do they have to have high heels? I love my Icon super duty being just over 5' the heel gives me nearly an inch and they were designed to shift easily. Used them on patrol for over 8 hours and no problem.

I got a new pair on ebay for $65 including shipping
