Orazo Riding Boots

Re: Orazo Riding Boots

Hey, I am really interested in the picus-vwr. Does anybody have any reviews on them?

I've been using Picus-VWR for the past couple of weeks. From what I've observed, the product focuses on an all rounder boot which will protect you while riding rather than a full fledged riding boot. In my opinion that's not at all a bad thing. I use the boot daily whenever I ride, I don't find it difficult to walk around wearing it.
The only time that you'll miss having a full fledged riding boot would be a track day, where boots like Orozo's would rob you of vital feedback from the bike due to the thick and sturdy sole.

Hey Abhijeet,

Thanks for your review. Actually, a few of my friends in jaipur have been using the orazo picus lace product for a 3-4 years and they have given me very positive feedback. I want to start touring myself in a few months and am shopping for good VFM riding gear. Would you recommend the vwr for touring purposes? I do not ride on the track anyways. Is it better to buy the lace version or the vwr?

Thanks in advance.

Yeah you can use for touring purpose i have been using it for long time. It may take time to settle with the boot but one day you will get use to.
Though i like the style of lace version but would recommend to buy VWR, as the headache to tie up the lace wont be there.

I personally prefer the VWR version due to the fact that I don't have to worry about my shoe-laces getting stuck in my gear lever. Also, putting the boot on and off becomes really a breeze.

Thanks a lot guys. I actually prefer the vwr in terms of looks. It has a sporty yet military look to it. But I guess each person has his own taste. Anyways, I will purchase one and give my review on it. How long do they generally take to deliver the boots?

Hi [MENTION=85309]VisheshS-RE[/MENTION] , We have a policy of dispatching our boots within 7 working days from the date of receiving the order. However, on a realistic note from our experience, In majority of the cases you would receive the boots in 6-7 days as the end to end production time for a boot is generally 2-3 days. It really depends on where you live.

Hey [MENTION=15923]Orazo Boots[/MENTION] ,

Thanks for your reply. I live in Delhi (saket). From what I can understand is that your boots are water resistant, is there any method that you would recommend to reduce water seeping during heavy rains? like what was happening in Delhi last week.

In water resistant boots, the only places from where water can seep in is through the stitch (specifically the holes) and not through the leather material.

You could either buy a waterproof boot cover or , we also recommend, applying wax on the stitch area when you expect to be riding through heavy rains.

Normal candle wax will suffice. However, this is only needed when you anticipate that you will be riding through heavy rains. In light to moderate rain, water will not seep through the stitch joints.

[MENTION=15923]Orazo Boots[/MENTION]I was checking out your boots on your website. why don't you guys put a toe slider on your boots?

I think it is because the abrasion resistant leather takes care of the function of the toe slider. Atleast that is what my friends who have used it in the past told me when i asked this question.

Exactly the reason @VisheshS-RE mentioned. The leather we use is abrasive resistant to a high grade. Hence, chipping of the leather does not happen very easily. Also, the use of a toe slider changes the aesthetics of the boot. We want our boots to look practical and blend in with various attires yet also give most of the features that are suited for practical riding purposes.


Our boots were recently mentioned in an article by riderzone.in which is about riding gear that can be worn to office everyday.
