My Sidi's fit well and have proven to be great protection in multiple asphalt surfing attempts.

I would NOT wear Oxtar unless they were sponsoring me.

I've been looking at Oxtar...whats wrong with them?

I have heard of them failing on more than one occasion.

I have personally seen them fail on a buddy in a relatively low speed incident. The bottom of the boot came off and he ended up on crutches due to poor quality control.

Damn, that is unacceptable. The SMX3's held up good when I crashed in them.

SMX Plus boots or better are the only A*s I would wear, otherwise go sidi. There is another brand of boot that is mostly sold in Europe that is suppose to be badass too.
