Not much cheaper, but I'm in love with my Astar octane for street demos.

Trouble with Doc Martens or any kind of steel-toe boots is that the toe box is too high from top to bottom........making it very hard to shift unless you've got a cruiser

I had a pair of steel toe Docs. I hated them.

They are thick in that regard but I don't have any problem shifting in mine. |

Back in May I bought the Alpinestars Miglia.
http://www.alpinestars.com/shop/cate.../miglia-shoes/ I like them pretty well. Definitely not suitable for anyone with a wide foot as these run quite narrow. |

I have these and have had these for years...
http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com...eet-Shoes.aspx If you put jeans/pants over them, then they look like normal shoes. They seem to be built tough and feel as if they'd stay on in a crash and even provide some ankle protection. You can walk around them all day and I've even worn them out on the town. I've actually added a Dr Schols insert to them and they feel even better. If you want a shoe, I'd look into the shift shoes. EDIT: I forgot to mention the do feel kind of heavy when you grab them but I don't even notice the extra weight while wearing them.
