Does most expensive REALLY mean BEST?

  • Does expensive equal best? The REV'IT! Expedition GTX boots are the top of the top, in terms of features and price. They are THE best boots I have ever used, as well they should be for the price. But, do you need the top just because it's at the top?
    I received these boots to test out, but all opinions are my own, and no money was exchanged for the making of this video.

    Solid review. I remember how excited you were that they said yes to them. Perfect for someone with a Klim budget. I like my alpinestar tech 3s, even though they don't flex much for shifting or walking.

    I have the Revit GForce road boots and they’re the most comfortable pair I’ve owned, actually worn them full day in the office several times under jeans. Need some boots, and purely due to comfort factor of the GForce I would consider. Not sure how the price tag is warranted, I know my GForce are made in Vietnam and still cost me $200… they’re making some serious margin I’d imagine. Will still consider though given protection and comfort. Nice review, keep up the great work!

    • @YankiRides
      @YankiRides  Před 7 měsíci

      the price tag is a bit much, but I can say, I haven't met a person that regrets getting them yet. The alpinestarts are great too (from friends telling me) for the lower budgets

  • @DonkeyDongDoug
    @DonkeyDongDoug Před 7 měsíci +1

    The Alpinestars Tech 5s are a little more budget friendly, but still offer a 4 buckle design. The Tech 7s offer a little bit more protection though.
    I wore 3 buckle TCX boots for the first couple years of riding, and had some big crashes off road and those boots held up just fine and kept me protected, but as I keep growing into it some more... it just makes more sense to have a boot like a Tech 5 or Tech 7, just in case I do need that extra bit of protection. If the extra $200 in cost saves me from screwing my ankle up... then it's worth every penny.

    This is another vote for the Tech 7 Enduro Drystar. I have these for the serious off road stuff, and a set of Corozals for the touring with a little bit of dirt stuff. I am not sure how they compare to 900 dollar boots, but you can buy two sets so that you and a friend can figure it out.
