as the title says.

Brand new without the box,only worn around the house (to try and break them in).
I got these of the tinterweb and put them on without my leathers.(a bit tight but OK ,,,,,,i thought)
Put my leathers on and ,,,uh-oh.With my Herculian (FAT) size calves. They're too small.

They are size 9(43).White/black/florescent yellow and touches of red.

linky type thing here :-

Hey I ain't knocking white boots I mean lets be honest anyone who considers Mart and Squid fashion icons can't really be that high on the Gok Wan scale

Fashion will own a Harley or a Ducati and have no chance at all. Unless we stop for a pie or something.

On the boots - tried them under the leathers?

Is that fashion advice or just old fashioned tailoring talk ?
Mart and John Ridersites answer to Trinny and Susanah ?!

Do you mean to cover them up?

But seriously, it's worth a try.
I know the problem, all current sports boots seem to be for stick insects.
I always end up trying every pair in the shop and the initial problem for me, is getting them on even when starting at +1 in size.
I can't get most sports boots past my ankle, and when I do cant easily fasten them over the leathers.
The best ones for me were Sidi, but then again I bought the Black Rain Evo boots , which are more for touring.

Yeah. I got sidi verti (something) lol.
Much more forgiving in the ankle/calve area.
I just need to recouperate some funds for some new sidi's.
