Presently I wear these on my 1981 CB 750 Custom:

They are/were marketed as motorcycle boots and have some maleoli protection, and there is some other armor as well. They are super comfortable on and off the bike. However, if I could do it all over again I would have bought a zip on motorcycle boot with more protection. Newbie mistake I guess.
I double knot them when I wear them. They are comfortable in hot weather and when it is cold I can put some wool socks on and ride a little longer and extend the season a bit.
I am considering the new Alpinestar SMX 6 vented boots for my next boot. They have some of the technical aspects of a hard core sport boot (that hinged ankle brace could prevent/minimize an ankle injury in an off); yet go on pretty easy since they zip up and then velcro.
