Thicker soled boots?
Greetings ladies. I have a question on behalf of my (very much) better half. She is a new rider. Started on a cruiser but has just gotten herself a Honda CB500X. The seat height difference is 7-8cm. She is not flat footing any more but nor is she tiptoeing (168cm tall). She is reluctant to put a lowering kit on the bike as that will affect handling, not so much of a limitation now but as she gets to know the bike better that will become more of an issue.
It has been suggested boots with a thicker sole might make that 1cm+ of a difference. Currently she uses Forma Slam Dry lace up boots. She likes the shorter style and the feedback from a softer boot. She has been looking online and will be calling to the local shops over the next wee while. Realistically there is going to be limited choice locally, retailers can only carry so much stock. I thought it might be worth asking on here if any of you had a similar experience or would recommend a boot that might address the issues?
Thank you in advance for any suggestions and to the guys who hang out on this forum who will post "funny" replies, haw haw haw.
