I bought a pair of Alpinestars Scout boots after reading a bunch of posts. I wore them last night for about 2 hours, walking around the house, working in the garage, etc. I think they are exactly what I was looking for. I already have motocross boots, street motorcycle boots, work boots, and hiking boots. All of those boots have their place, but didn't quite fit what I was looking for. I think the Alpinestars Scouts will provide a boot comfortable enough to walk or stand in for long periods of time, and provide decent protection for off-road riding.
