Almost every part of the boot can be replaced even the sole that’s the beauty of it. I’ve been riding them for a year with a crash they are still in fantastic shape & I destroy boots on my rear sets with the way I ride. I killed my cowboy boots riding street :lol But these take a licking and keep on ticking.  
These are great on street or track you wont need another pair of boots after these for years to come.:excited

Seriously sidi should pay me to talk about these boots.
