I can certainly recommend the TCX Infinity boots



Had mine for about a year now and done about 19k miles in them in all weather. VERY comfortable, utterly waterproof and with some thermal socks plenty adaquate for my motorway commute in winter. BIKE/RIDE (can't remember which) tested them by leaving them in ankle deep water overnight and nothing came through at all.

Shin protection is excellent and hardwearing.

As you can see I have a few scuffs in mine but that's only cosmetic. Soles seem to be lasting me fairly well, especially as I've caught my foot on the road a couple on times while sticking my foot out in corners.

The leather is fairly thick so you're not going to be wearing thought them that quickly if you are hard on them but YMMV of course.

When mine finally wear out I'll be buying another pair for sure (I should get another 1-2 years out of them easily).

My only complaint is i'd have liked the gear change toe guards to have extented further forward as they don't always protect the boot on the Tenere (you can see the scuff marks)
