Why Should I Wear Boots while Riding an ATV

Let's face it, riding your ATV or motorcycle is just about as much fun as a person can have legally. But you need to be smart about it. Properly protecting your body when you ride is essential.

You know that you need a helmet, gloves, and goggles and you know exactly why you need those items when you ride. Have you thought about the footwear that you should be wearing when you ride?

Boots are class A protection for your feet, ankles, and lower legs. Riding boots are specifically designed to protect your feet, ankles, shins, and lower legs from flying debris such as rocks, branches, sticks and sometimes even other vehicles. Motocross boots are stiffly designed to protect you against foot movements of the foot and ankle that wouldn't occur naturally. The boot will attempt to stop your foot and ankle from turning in awkward directions and thereby save you from a break in place.

One great example for wearing proper riding boots is if you run into a stationary object such as a tree stump or a log. These can seriously hurt your leg or foot if not properly protected. You might get a bruise if you hit one of these objects when wearing a good pair of riding boots, however if you're not adequately protecting your legs and feet, you could fracture that area on impact.

A good rule of thumb many ATV and motorbike riders use is to dress for a crash. If it doesn't happen, great! If it does, you'll be more than protected and ready.

Use proper protection for your legs and feet when you ride and you're assured of a lot of good safe fun on your ATV or motorcycle.
