Your cart is empty.Your bike is part of your everyday life, your gear should be too. The Axle Shoe by Highway 21 is a legit riding shoe that thinks it's an every day sneaker. Reinforced toe & heel boxes, dual ankle protectors, crush resistant sole with composite shank, and topped off with a black textile upper means that it seamlessly slides from riding to living, just like you do.

These are awesome! They are great for riding. Nice ankle support, strong shank, true to size, great grip and lightweight… What else do you need? Also look really good, casual and not aggressive. They aren’t super comfortable after walking around for a long time because of the ankle support, but they’re riding shoes and are supposed to have ankle support. GET THESE! You wrong be disappointed!

I wanted something that looked like Vans but with some protection. There isn't the same amount of support as my leather boots, but it's way more than a pair of skate shoes. The durability seems fine as long as you have a rubber covered shifter. If you have a knurled or an abrasive shifter, I can see it chewing through the toe cap. They are stiff at first, but do brake in. I normally wear a size 12, and these were a little tight.

I am a new motorcycle rider. I bought these boots because I was struggling with changing gears with my other motorcycle boots. My old boots were very stiff and made me nervous to change gears. I also didn’t want to look like a space ranger. I really like these boots. Because of the lace up in the front, I have more mobility with my ankle to change gears. They are a very nice material and they are very study. My ankles feel protected and stable, and I have the front mobility. They do not have a zipper. They are only lace up. They have good grip and my feet do not slip off of the gear paddle or rear brake. I recommend these boots especially for new riders to help them build their confidence with changing gears.

Ordered these riding boots for the looks and comfort. Rode with them for only a few weeks or a month at most. Top of the left boot already wore through from the shifter, even after a week and a half wear and tear was already visible. Boots were comfy but not for long.

They arrived a day early which is always nice. They look pretty nice. Similar to my vans which I love. I wanted the black/gum which wasn’t available so I ordered the black/black. I received the black/gum which was a nice surprise. Most of my shoes and boots are size 12 wide. A few are 11.5 wide. I wear vans in a 12. I order these in a 12. These feel slightly more narrow than my vans but they are wide enough. The 12 fits great length wise. They have zero arch so I’ll probably get inserts. They seems nice enough for every day shoes. They are my first pair of riding boots/sneakers so protection wise I wasn’t sure what to expect. Now they I can see/feel them in person I don’t get it. I can’t imagine they’d provide any more protection than a normal pair of hiking books. I actually think my danner and merrels would be safer. The toe box, heel, and sole are all soft and flimsy and aren’t going to help. The ankle protection is tiny and not located where you’d want it. I have zero confidence they’d help me in a crash. They do seem like they’ll have decent grip and not be slippery. All I’ve done is un-box them and walk around the house so far. I’ll update after a few rides but as of now I’m pretty sure I’ll be returning them and looking for something with more protection and possibly a side zipper.

I really love these shoes. Did a lot of research and read a lot of reviews. Ordered these because the price was reasonable and the shoes looked to be comfortable for everyday use.Bought these 8 months ago and wear them 3 to 7 days a week. Wear them to work and I’m on my feet the majority (75-80%) of my day. I have no other boots or shoes for the bike. I walk around festivals and concerts without any fatigue or pain. These shoes are built to last and very comfortable. They have not lost their shape or are fraying. The laces will eventually have to be replaced, but the wear and tear on them are no more than usual. I have rode in weather and the shoes were not overly water resistant, however they did not gather water also. The tread works for dry use, however oil and other liquids do make you slip a little. The size was a bit small for my feet, would recommend getting a size half bigger.7 months into wearing them I replaced the inserts with some Dr. Scholls work message inserts. I have been enjoying these shoes even more. Replaced them mostly for work, due to being on my feet all the time.I wear these in Texas heat and they don’t make my feet sweat like crazy (like leather does). During the winter however, they do not keep your feet warm (without the proper socks). Riding in 50 or below weather you will need the proper socks.Pros:Comfortable, sturdy, keeps structure, no breakdown or large creasing around the movement areas, Price pointCons: Not majorly water resistant and not warm in 40–50-degree weather on a motorcycle, will slip a little when you put your feet in oil, need to go up a half size,

This is the 1 out of 10 items these days that is "as advertised" or even better. They are extremely sturdy, they look brand new after a full summer. Zero wear on the bottoms from the pegs, and zero wear from the the shift lever. There are comfortable to ride and walk in, and still give good feedback to/from pegs and shifter all while keeping your feet cool. One of the few items these days that does everything extremely well. True to size, and I highly suggest. Credit where credit is due, hence the review.

Ill start off by I'm using these for bmx and moutian biking.. The shoes are nice and stiff where they need to be, great ankle protection, shoe still flexes at toes so you can walk.I pulled out a few metal eyelets on the first two rides, but overall for using them for something they aren't intended for they do nice. I'm happy for the price
