This technical, waterproof shoe is ideal for short touring trips and winter urban use as it fuses the concept of a touring boot and a high tech bike shoe.

It works fine for city, @work

The boots look like they have some ankle protection built into them. Is there actually armor or padding of some sort ?

[warlock2008]

it is not armored. is a rubber material. it gives some protection, but not for circuits.

i took these ones thinking that i could stay at work, wearing them more than just while ridding.
