great boots, survived a bunch of shit with me including big wheeling. Ruined the heels that way. Just don't use them in the rain, they let water in like crazy.

Good to know. My SMX3's actually held out water for quite a while before my socks started getting wet.

They hold up ok in a drizzle and car spray, but get a nice soaking rain and you are fucked. That's why I want the Sidi On Roads, they a good all around good touring boots.

FWIW the SMX-5 can be purchased "waterproof" and the SMX-plus boots used to have a waterproof/goretex version so maybe you can find a pair on closeout.

SMX-5 $250 retail
