Ohhh So Comfortable ;-)
Only had a chance to wear my Chargers a couple of times so far, they were comfortable right out of the box. I wear a size 10 Running Shoe I ordered a Size 11 Boot. The fit is PERFECT. I wish they fit under my Levis, I'd wear them every day.

Sidi Charger Boots
They run small. Get them at least a size bigger. I had to send one set back that were too small. They are the most comfortable boots made right out of the box. Save your money and get the Chargers (still expensive, though!) instead of the much heavier and more expensive top of the line model. The Chargers are the best.

Awesome Boots
The SIDI Charger boots are great for dualsport riding and broke in after just a few rides. They are now easy to walk in and quite comfortable. The buckles are strong and have a lot of adjustability. I wear a 13.5 or 14 in most shoes and the size 48 fit perfect. If you have a fat foot, these boots are not for you. They seem to run a bit narrow compared to the Fox Comp 5 and Astar Tech 3. The toe box seems less bulky and therefore easier to shift. I would not hesitate buying these boots again. I don't see how the Crossfires could be $125 better. Great boots...get you some!!

The best boots
I tried a number of different boots and all of them had their good and bad points. I finally decided to order a set of the Sidi Chargers because I had heard good things about this brand. These are the best boots I have ever owned. The buckles are night and day better than some competitors buckles, the pivot works great, and they are light, very light. The only problem I had is that the toe box is very tight initially and took a bit to stretch to the shape of my foot, but after the first ride, they're broke in. Great job Sidi!

Good Boot
After looking at more road oriented touring boots I realized they offer no more protection than a good pair of work boots. I wanted something to keep my feet attached, and was able to try on the charger boot. I was amazed how comfortable it is for this level of protection. They also fit under my jeans for a less than, mad max look. After reading a lot of posts, on forums about broken ankles, and skimping on boots being a big mistake, I got the chargers and am very happy with them. I ride a Suzuki DL650 and a DR650, the chargers work well on both.
Ride Safe!

Returned Chargers for Crossfires
Love Sidi boots! Charger boot is a tighter fit (like Alpinestars) than the Crossfires - too tight for my wide feet. Chargers are lighter, though I didn't really notice when on. I returned and upgraded to the Crossfire TA which has roomier adjustment available. Crossfire is also easier to break in. Crossfire's boot rates 5, Chargers are average at 3.
