Substantial boots, good weight, decent materials. Floating system does not negatively impede movement and provides hard shell to both sides. Zips and vents resist splashed water, yet the boots are sufficiently breathable too - so suitable for most conditions. I'm a typical UK 10 and opted for the Euro 45 - perfect length, initially tight across the width, but moulded to my feet for a good close fit.

The only issue with this item is with the glues and stitching, or I should say "il temperamento" is quite a well-known hand-made-in-Italy feature. Other than such kind of minor flaws, I am really satisfied with the built quality of Gaerne boots. The form of both sides are well-balanced, robust but not bulky, silicone sprays may get rid of the squeaks from the polymer ankle pivots. During the break-in period, the boots give a tighter feel than that from fellow Italian manufacturers such as Alpinestars and TCX, but after some time of use they bed in properly and I love the supporting features very much. The degree of ankle movement is nothing more or less than adequate, with some sorts of flexibility I feel comfortable when riding on bikes with both OEM and racing rearsets. But if you have a pair of thick feet or chubby calves, I recommend going one size up, also unpadded stockings are preferable. Gaerne does not entertain half size on GRW, and you might feel annoying when putting them on when it is brand new. I still have no chance to try it out in pouring rain conditions, but in daily commuting situation it is a pair of out-and-out waterproof boots, it is an item which makes me feel glad. En plus, I am also happy with FC Moto, they come up to my inquiries immediately, and I will definitely be back again soon.
