Klim Blak Jak Boot

These boots are sold in U.S. men’s sizes. We’ve tried on a selection of sizes and think this boot runs true to a US shoe size. The width is generous, we think C to D. If you sometimes wear between two sizes I’d recommend trying the larger since I thought the boots ran just a bit on the snug side if anything. The lacing system gives a wide range of adjustability for instep fit.

The Klim Blak Jak boot is a good looking and well made boot. It offers the looks of a construction/hiking style with a smooth sole which will be stable and comfortable.

This is a good looking boot for sure, and I think it will break in be quite comfortable. One thing missing here is any significant protection for motorcycling. Klim makes a lot of gear for all kinds of motorsports including ATV which wouldn’t necessarily require the same protections you find in street bike boots, so maybe that is what they were aiming for here. Nearly any boot for street bikes will have built in ankle protectors and a reinforced toe box and heel surround at a minimum, but none of those are here.

But if your focus not for street riding or other sports where you’d want protective features, then you’ll really like the quality and styling here. I’d compare these boots with other well made outdoorsman boots. The sole is wide and relatively flat like you find with work/construction boots, so they’ll be plenty stable. The upper material is a light suede leather that looks great. :: Paul, 03-23-20
