Way back in the early 1970s I only ever wore steelcap boots ...
Now I have proper riding boots and would never wear anything else ... the position of my feet on the pegs is completely different to the BSAs and Meridan Triumphs I rode back then .. steelcaps would be very uncomfortable and hard to change gear in on the modern bikes I have ...
I've also dropped the bike in my modern boots with exoskeletons and have walked away (well, limped a few paces) ... in steelcaps I would have broken my ankle ..
Get some decent riding boots as soon as you can afford them
