Well, at least I&#8217;m glad someone is reading this thing!<\/p>\n<p>To me, &#8220;office friendly biker boots&#8221; are boots that have these features:<\/p>\n<p>* rubber sole for grip on pavement while riding<br \/>* no leather soles &#8212; they slip<br \/>* no big lug Vibram soles &#8212; they just don&#8217;t work well in an office setting<br \/>* dark foot\/shaft color that goes well with pants I wear to work<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s really it.  Now, what kind of boots fit that description?  There are <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bootedman.com\/cowboy\/#dual\" target=\"_blank\">&#8220;dual purpose cowboy\/biker boots&#8221;<\/a> in my collection, such as harness boots or cowboy boots with rubber soles.<\/p>\n<p>I also often choose to wear <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bootedman.com\/cycle\/#cop\" target=\"_blank\">motorcycle cop uniform boots<\/a> because with pants over them, all others can really see are shiny black &#8220;shoe-looking&#8221; feet.  (But man, how I enjoy the feeling of tall boots on my legs, even if no one else knows or cares.)  I have many tall black cop boots in my collection, and often I have a pair of them on my feet at the office.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, most people don&#8217;t care and don&#8217;t say anything, as long as you don&#8217;t put a boot in their face.  Wear what you want, but also wear what provides safety while operating a motorcycle and goes okay with the office attire.<\/p>\n<p>Life is short!  Wear your boots!<br \/><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I blogged yesterday about using my Harley to get to the Metro and then go to work, I mentioned that I put on &#8220;office friendly biker boots.&#8221; Someone sent me an email through this blog to ask me just &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bootedmanblog.com\/?p=67\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-67","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-motorcycle-boots"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bootedmanblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bootedmanblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bootedmanblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bootedmanblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bootedmanblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=67"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.bootedmanblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bootedmanblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=67"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bootedmanblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=67"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bootedmanblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=67"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
