From my personal experience the SG 12 is a great fitting boot with plenty of support, they look and feel great. but that’s not to say I haven’t had a few problems with the quality of the boot and so far the biggest problem is that the company does not stand behind its product. This is a shame because I do love the boots but I also need to know as a consumer that if I have a problem I can count on the manufacturer to step up and take care of any issues within reason. The stitching along the upper half of my boot began to come apart within the first month of ownership then the Velcro began to separate from the upper strap after about six months. When I contacted the company they asked for pictures which I complied and sent them and after over a month the response that I got was that they don’t see any issue. So I have paid to have what I consider warranty issues repaired at my cost. My advice is that if you purchase these boots make sure that you’re willing to suck up the cost if they fail. After a brief bit of research I have found many other customers that have had more severe problems than mine and the company has not stood behind their product.

Good review and information. Reviews from people that are selling them and have not even ridden in them usually just regurgitated the boot makers own marketing blurb and must be taken with a grain of salt. Good, honest long term reviews like yours are much more useful.

@@BrokenSprocket I broke my right shin bone (inner side) when my ebike fell on me due to wet offroad. I am trying to find a motorcross boot. Does SG12 has THICK HARD SHELL on entire inner section (like ski boot)? In the videos it seems to be a thin plastic and rubber? Thanks !

I am still trying to find a motorcross or other type boot, but looking thru all major names, I still can't find a boot that has HARD SHELL on entire inner section (like ski boot). That can withstand 200lb bike fall on top of lower leg. Any suggestion? Thanks !

I own a pair of SG12's and a pair of tech 7's for backup boots. Although the 7's are very comfortable, they are no where near the level of quality. I have 400 plus hours on the SG 12's with one resole.

Good one, nice to see how they wear and tear.🛠 They're also one of the few makers who still make their own stuff in Italy and not china, which to me at least, means quality🤩. Do you run a lighter boots for touring or easier days ?🤔 Not that Ive ever seen your ride easy 😲 Tx4V
