Your logic would have all upper body clothing lumped under a single category such as 'shirts' or 'blouses', whether they be either, or a jacket or a dress top or an undershirt. Or perhaps all vehicles as 'cars', whether they be an army tank or a passenger car or a tractor trailer. A bit too simplistic, I think. 22: 1418:
It really does seem most armour is made to look pretty, but fails to serve the purpose it is designed for, especially with sport bike rider armour. Most of that stuff has exposed materials of the wrong hardness level to skip and avoid damage that would instead bite into the tarmac and cause enhanced

Idk if it's doable, but I really do believe that it's notable. There are a large proportion of motorcycling armour producers out there who make shit that looks badass but has absolutely poor forethought when it comes to fall or collision dynamics. For example, the touring boot shown on this page.

I'm a rider, but I'm not an editor on motorcycle related articles and don't exactly want to cross genres into something I don't know 100% about, but I'd love to see some common beliefs in the motorcycle community, and objective logical deductions such as the above included in the article. It's

Thx for the tips. But..um, sorry, we can't add this information to the article unless there's the reliable source we can cite. I personally prefer medical source. If at least one established manufacturer claims these "decorations" to be harmful to the wearer, we can cite it in the article but

I don't believe that I agree. I think that there are enough variations between what is termed a "motorcycle boot" to warrant the separate articles. A motocross boot worn by dirt riders has little in common (except for being a boot used on a motorcycle) with the patrol boots worn by motorcycle
207: 209: 1326:
Moreover, both of the latter (engineer and harness boots) are not strictly used for motorcycle riding but have a large following outside of the motorcycle category. Lumping them in with the motorcycle boots category would not be accurate.

There's a rubber stopper hanging off the external outer portion of the boot. Looks cool. But if you fell, that would bite into the ground decelerating that limb causing an axial torsion and knee / hip trauma like crazy.
