i have a CHP accociate. he told me that in his experience, the accident victim's chance for survival is greatly diminished if the shoes come off. (very unscientific, i know)..but he said when they come up to an accident, they get immediately discouraged if they see a pair of shoes.

i put my boots on all the time..no exceptions. i regret getting the tall version, since they have some that are 6" lower..i also do not like laces on motorcycles. i once had a brain fart and got it hooked on the shifter..no biggie unless you come to a stop thinking i could get that foot down..(i saved it by tilting the other way)
