Bates make custom motorcycle boots for about the price of a regular good boot ($225-295). Since they are individually made you will have to wait. I ordered sport boots in November or December (they warned me it may take a few months). One of the boots fit a little too big so I sent it back and they made me a new one (they didn't charge me any extra). Tried them for the first time today and got to do about 150 miles in them. They are made from soft leather so are very comfortable and are hard in the toe and heel and have pads over the ankles, on the other hand they are not as protective as those ski boot style track boots. Overall they apear to be a well made set of boots, they don't look like they are from a Flash Gordon costume (mine don't even have the yellow patch which you see in the pictures) and are custom made to your feet.
