The width of these boots tends toward roomy. Some brands like Sidi and Tour Master are more narrow, perhaps a C or D width, and I’d estimate the width of these FirstGear boots as slightly more wide, say D or E. Other brands that run wider like these FirstGear boots are TCX and Alpinestars.
Our Two Cents
The Palisade boot from FirstGear is a waterproof high-top lace up style.
The boots have a lace up closure with a hook and loop flap to store the laces so they don’t get hung up in anything on a ride. The toe box, heel, and ankles are all reinforced to protect from impact and a large reflective on the rear of the boot will help you stay visible at night.
The foam insole is relatively comfortable and the sole of the boots is pretty flat with sections of tread for improved traction off the bike. The FirstGear Palisade boot is a great waterproof option and at this price point, it’s hard to go wrong. :: Mike, 02-24-2022
