Gotta be the best bike boots I've ever owned. The Pilgrim Grande are just so good. As a casual boot for everyday walking, they excel. They arrived just before a short break holiday I took with my wife in The Algarve. I walked miles for 4 days straight and even from new, the boots felt incredible. Cozy, yet supportive, light yet sturdy and soo very easy to put on and take off. Once the laces were set, the side zipper was a dawdle to open and slip on or off. I wear mine on a cruiser with jeans, and because of the extra length of the leg, my jeans don't creep up or allow draughts up my leg. The soul is very grippy, especially on gravel or grassy surfaces, but do tend to clog with small pebbles a bit, to be expected with any good gripping boot. I bought two pair, black and vintage grey and love how they look with jeans, either riding or just out casually. I'd seriously recommend them to anyone considering a new pair of boots, AND they certainly were VERY affordable.
