Bad sizing.

I bought a pair of Daytona Strive boots in size 42, which I thought would be UK 7.5 to accommodate winter socks, but they would require about 4 pairs to fill the space. Bought size 41 & they were so tight that my toes went numb within 10 minutes. Sent both pairs back.
Top quality boots but expensive. However Sportsbikeshop honoured a price match which made a huge difference. I have used Sportsbikeshop for many years and will continue to do so. Nobody else comes close.
Bought these Daytona Strive to replace some sports boots that I just couldn't feel comfy in, from straight out of the box these are just like slippers, the quality of the leather etc is second to none, and the fit is fantastic, had 12hrs plus in them over the weekend, at only their 3rd outing, and not once did I think I can't wait to get these off, best boots ever!
Wanted to get a new boot and wanted to try the Strive but wasn't sure on size. The really helpful staff got two sizes in for me to try the next day and I was sorted out with size 43. So well done MK. The boots are great would well recommend to anybody wanting a sport boot thats 100% waterproof.
Great quality boots with incredible feeling of safety built in. Comfortable from the moment they were put on. 100% waterproof in several downpours. Price match made them a no brainer upgrade.
I know they are expensive, but after trying on 8 different pairs of boots these were the ones. Buttery soft leather so don't need to break them in, easy to walk in and after riding in what felt like a monsoon, my feet were perfectly dry. Worn with my big socks, feet never got hot either. If Carlsberg made motorcycle boots these are the boots. To top it off as usual, great service from Sports Bike Shop and they price matched a competitor. Outstanding product and amazing service.
Finally had to replace my oxtar boots which had started to leak after 9 years. Thought id try the daytona boots because of all the good reviews, although the price is 3 times that of the boots they've replaced. They are however comfortable straight out of the box, seem very well made and have already remained dry after several deluges of heavy rain. Overall I'm very happy with them. Sportsbikeshop's service is excellent as always.
After reading many reviews I decided to bite the bullet & go for the Daytona Strive. Easy to buy, super swift delivery & I can see these keeping my feet dry & toasty for many years to come.
Love them. They're sized quite large compared to other Daytona boots. I tried the Road Stars in 43 a while back which were way too tight, but the 43s in this boot are the perfect size for me. I'm normally a 44 shoe.
I've only had them for about a month at the time of writing but have already been caught in huge downpour and of course lots of cold weather - no cold or wet feet. They're simple with one zip and full Goretex inner boot, so I can't see these ever leaking, as expected from Daytona boots.
They're a much sportier / light weight / slimline boot compared to the Road Stars but of the same quality which is nice if you're used to something a bit more sporty.
Very happy with them and can see them lasting 10+ years maybe with an occasional re-sole / re-Goretex which can be done for quite a reasonable price with Daytona.
The quality and craftsmanship of these boots are of a high standard. But then would you expect anything less from the Germans. They are very soft with all the protection you need in all the right places. The sole although strong has a nice flex to it so you could wear these boots to church if you like. Breaking in time is very quick. I only had one issue with my 1rst pair. The left boot when fitted pressed down hard on my foot on the inside at the bottom end of the zipper whilst the right boot on my bigger f
