Hey Fellas, since everybody was so helpful with my suit, I figure I would throw this out....been doing alot of research on boots for track days, searched threads on this sight as well, so far the boots I'm leaning towards are the sidi either the b2's or the vertigo air, I have read mixed reviews as to weather the B2 is track worthy, nothing bad about the vertigo (300 bucks though), does anyone have insight on the b2 and/or vertigo? also I would have to say that these boots are the best looking on the market, JMO

PS Ive been wearing the suit aroung the house and it's starting to feel a whole lot better....

IMHO the Vertigo is the best money can buy.

I also have the Vertigo and love them. Have had other brands in the past, the Sidi are the best for the price IMHO.

I wear a 9 1/2 and have the 43 EU = 9 1/2 US and they are spot on.

I've worn Sidi's for a very long time, I bought the Vertigo Corsa's when they came out 4 years ago... Best off the shelf boot made. And the Vertigo's are almost identical to the Corsa's but without the external armour. Fit & finish are great, comfort it by far better than any other boot after they've been broken in. Size wise they're right on, maybe a tad on the large size by maybe a 1/4 size.
