Either my ankles are small or the boot requires a pretty perfect fit to be snug. I usually wear a 9.5, but I think I should have gotten a 9. Anyways, if you have nice think ankles, then the ankle protection motorcycling needs here may be right for you. I need to return them, however.

Great boot, stylish for a work boot and comfortable. They run very narrow, however. I had to get a wide width and I have a narrow foot! I agree the zipper is only for style. You have to untie them. Zappos is great. I end up returning a lot of things to get the size right, but I love the selection and convenience.

Bought these boots for my fiancee, to use during our bikefests. She found them to be true to size, and sturdy protection right out of the box. I hope they are durable, because they were not inexpensive. They are very "Biker", so that is a great start with us.

These boots are great. I don't need full sleeve tats to coordinate with them. They support my ankles well. They come in wide.

These boots are the best purchase I have ever made. I bought them for riding my motorcycle and it was like they were broken in from the first day. I don't think I'll ever buy anything other than Red Wings. And Zappos is the best place to buy anything. Their customer service is fantastic.

The longest lasting boot I have ever owned!!! I work a very rugged job! I burn through a pair of boots every three to four months, but since I found this specific pair - they have lasted me 3 years and 9 months. They now need to be replaced. If you break the price down over that amount of time, it equates to about $3.55 per month at the current asking price of $160.00. THAT IS THE BEST DEAL UNDER THE SUN!!!! Given when I purchased the boot they were $99.00 that makes the monthly price I paid $2.20 per month for the life of the boot. You must try them - they take 5 to 7 days to break in, but once they do it's like putting on your favorite pair of socks. ENJOY!!

It's simple. If you're looking for a motorcycle boot that combines superior quality, durability, and a lace/zipper style that guarantees an effortless entry and exit through a variety of ways to secure the most comfortable fit possible--regardless of the socks you wear or the condition of your feet--these are the boots to get! Like I said, it's that simple. Plus... you're an inch-and-a-half taller... without surgery! Combine that with Zappos elite service and how can you lose? What else can I say?

Although I do not own a motorcycle, I wanted a pair of work boots with a sense of style, and these are a good answer. The leather is soft and immediately comfortable while the sole is sturdy and provides excellent support. My foot is long and narrow, and these boots fit surprisingly well. My heel is a bit too narrow for the space inside the boot, so I need to wear a thick sock and find some form of additional padding. The zipper is a design feature only, but a very good one. The boots have to be untied to put them on and off. The name plates on the heels are like jewelry.

Best boots ever! I love these boots. I ride a bike and these boots really hold up. They feel a bit snug at first, but break in nicely. I had a pair of Harley brand boots that fell apart before six months. I've had the RW's about 3 years and they are still gong strong! I ordered these boots again, as a gift for a friend on a Friday night, got them Saturday morning. Zappos is AWESOME!

A bit heavy, the Red Wing 1671 - I wear the Red Wing boot 1670, a pull on. It is light and comfy. The Red Wing 1671, although a smaller boot is twice as heavy and not as comfy. I have to wear a thicker sock to keep my heel from sliding. I should have found the boot in a store to try on before ordering it. It's great for riding, the sole is very thick and stiff, but for walking, a bit heavy and clunky.

Quality boot - The 968s are a very good quality boot. I have narrow shins so boots are always an iffy fit with me, but they fit well and there is a slight slip on the heel when I step which is always the case with boots. You can adjust the two straps, but they don't really do much. The boot looks nice, but isn't going to grab any attention. I look forward to riding with them.

Very sturdy for motorcycle - After trying several other boots, I got these because they were the sturdiest I found. Solid for serious riding - no messing around. And after breaking them in, they've also become very comfortable. Wear them all day. Good support, great traction, and protection. And infinitely adjustable w/ laces and zipper.

Love the looks and feel of the boot. However, within 1 1/2 months of owning and wearing them, the zipper started to come out twice!!

I really liked the boot. The sole is a little thick for my motorcycle shifting but I was very pleased with this find, especially since I have a wide foot.

Sturdy boots - These boots are sturdy, good leather, steel toes. The zippers are really convenient for on & off. They make me more confident on my scooter on the highway & around town. I wish they were 1"-2" taller so my pants would overlap them when seated on the scooter. Oh well, they're still great.

MOTORCYCLE BOOTS - These boots are awesome. Feel like Iâ€™ve had them ten years the first minute I put them on. They are a little pricey. However they are comfortable with plenty of padding.

Nice boots - The boots were great. Fit well considering I have a problem with my left foot. All considered, the shoe is excellent quality and I'd recommend them to anyone. Nice to find boots in a wide size.

Red Wing 967 motorcycle boots - I like 'em! I've had these boots for a couple of weeks now. I've walked about 10-15 miles in them to break them in, which improves them a lot. When I first got them, they were very hard to get in to; I had to lower the zipper AND loosen the laces. But now I can just use the zipper and leave the laces tied. I bought my size (9.5 - D) and that seems about right. I wear them with medium weight socks, and there is a little dye transfer onto the socks when new, but nothing awful. They feel a little tight around the toes on my right foot, but that may loosen up as they're broken in further. (Donâ€™t know how much, though, as they do have steel toes) They're not lightweight running shoes, so you do clomp around a bit. Excellent construction. No complaints on arch support. Looking forward to actually using them on a MOTORCYCLE! I take the class next week.

Very comfy for my w-i-d-e feet. I had to order the extra wide, but they are more comfy than any others that I have tried. I finally can have a boot that is comfortable to wear for riding.

Great shoes for riding but not for walking - These shoes are great on the bike but I cannot wear them all day. Just take a second pair of shoes to walk in.

Sharp boots for work and play. These boots look awesome! The lines are classic enough that I can pass them off at work in khakiâ€™s and polo's. Right out of the box I wore them for several days without any fatigue and most of my day is standing at a work bench on concrete flooring. Comfort I rank as a 4 instead of 5 only because I'm not used to having play at the top of a boot when walking. With my old motorcycle boots I had laces all the way to the top for a snug fit. This isn't a drawback just something to get used to. On the plus side this is the first steel toe boot that I don't have an uncomfortable feeling inside the boot. I haven't had shoes with zippers since the age of 5 years old. But I don't have the hassle of tying and untying boots all the time either. My 1st pair of Red Wings and it will not be my last. Thanks for a terrific product.

First Zappos buy. Excellent service from the Zappos crew! I lived next door to a shoe store for years. My mom worked there for 20 yrs. From this I was familiar with Red Wing shoes. The 988 M/C boot is exactly as presented. I'm not a big shopper (online or otherwise) but I can't think of any way that your site could be any more informative or easy to use. For what it's worth I am completely satisfied and will continue to use Zappos.com

A good buy - This is the third pair of footwear that I have purchased from Zappos; I have been very satisfied with all of them. The fit of the Red Wing motorcycle boots is very good. Zappos service is excellent. I have a narrow foot and until I found Zappos' I had a difficult time finding shoes or boots that fit. I couldn't be happier with both the products and the service that I have received.
