I was pleasantly stunned to see that I am not the only poor soul who runs around all day in sneakers! :D

I am still wearing my hiking boots. As yet I haven't been able to find a decent fitting motorcycle boot.

I wear some skechers, but they're getting pretty thin over the left toe so I'll be upgrading to some Harley (or similar) boots in the spring.

i wear steel-toe "engineer" boots.

they're not really workboots, and they're not really motorcycle boots, although that's what most people use them for.

they became popular after most people saw them on marlon brando in "the wild one"

As long as they are of a good heavy leather construction they will be fine.

I wear steel-toed work boots. Gonna pick up actual motorcycle boots at some point, but new pants are higher on the list.

A pair of Harley boots. Were the only motorcycle boots in the store, and the ones at the dealers were always race boots. They are nice, and not too 'fancy' to wear at work. I use them everyday, except there's one problem. They don't climb up the leg enough, and thus water gets in them. I have to change my socks almost every morning that rains when I ride to work.

And thus I've decided to order a pair of these for winter:
