May is Motorcycle Safety Month and at Working Person’s Store we want to focus on the gear riders need to stay safe and look cool while doing it. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) recommends that all motorcyclists wear helmets that meet the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 218 for protection. In addition to helmets–and safety gloves–there are boots, jackets and other apparel that will make your ride safer and more comfortable.
Wearing protective boots while riding can help reduce your chance of injury if you’re involved in a crash. Boots that go past your ankles will also give you support you need when balancing on your bike. At Working Person’s Store we offer a wide selection of boots just for motorcyclists from brands like Harley Davidson, Chippewa and more.

The 9.5-inch uppers on these slip on boots will give you coverage and protection for your lower legs and feet. The heels have a 1.5-inch lift to give you better grip on ladder rungs. To give you even more protection, these boots have steel toes and are ASTM F2412-11 I/75 C/75 rated for safety. With the full cushion sock lining and ShockAbsorbers TwinPad comfort technology, you’ll want to wear these boots for a long Sunday drive or your daily commute.
