I'd go with the Icon Super Duty. I personally don't have them, but a friend has a pair and loves them. Plus I think they look better also.

I am really enjoying my Dainese K-Night boots. Comfortable to ride/walk in and comfortable while off the bike too walking around.

If you get the icon super duty make sure to get the second style "Icon super duty 2" I just got them and they are nice, comfty, you can wear them off the bike. I like them a lot.

Check out the Oxtar Jupiter Gore-tex shoe, looks extremely comfy yet still has some good safety features. I almost bought these but decided to go to a race boot for better protection. I commute everyday with my bike so I'm just going to leave a pair of shoes at work to change into.

Are the boot sizes the same as shoe sizes? Thanx everyone for your help, after looking more the Icon Super Duty 2 are the ones I'll probly go with.

Some of the bots go by european sizing(46,47,48) instead of US sizing. In that case just look up their reference chart and figure out your size(I'm a 12.5 and have a 47). Icon goes by US sizing and they should be the same size as your regular shoes. If you're in between sizes you'll probably want the larger size.
