    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

    1. "What size should I order?"

    Your most common size in sneakers/tennis shoes. The boots run a tad long, but the MOST IMPORTANT THING is that your heel feels nice and snug and your toes aren't hitting the ends of the boots. They should feel tight around the rest of the foot until you break them in.


    2. "But I saw a review that said—"

    LET ME STOP THERE. Did the review specify what version he had? Is it the same boot you're going to buy? Do you have his foot? No. No. Hopefully no.

    I make upgrades with every batch. The little numbers next to the boot name indicate what version you'll be purchasing.


    3. "So what size should I order?"

    For men? Your most common size in tennis shoes (NOT boots). For women? I'd say go up a size if you're on the fence.


    4. "Okay, I got them, and they feel a little tight. Did I get the wrong size?"

    Probably not. Take the laces completely off and walk around. The only thing that should feel comfortable is YOUR HEEL. As long as it's nice and snug, the leather will soften and the boot will mold to your foot.


    5. "Wait, so I can actually wear them?"

    Yes. It's called "The Live Free Guarantee". How can you know if you like riding boots if you can't wear them — or even *GASP* ride with them?

    There are some limitations though. Read "The Live Free Guarantee" — but overall, I want happy customers. Happy customers come back.


    6. "I can really return them even if I've worn them or ridden with them?"

    Yes, but again, read "The Live Free Guarantee", it's our UNOFFICIAL Return Policy. Our Official Return Policy is called The "Road House" Return Policy. They work hand in hand. If you abuse "The LFG", you won't be able to purchase from us in the future.


    7. "It's Thursday and I need my boots for a ride Saturday, will they come in time?"

    No. You can buy expedited shipping at checkout, but that does not include Fulfillment Time (1-2 business days) and shipping times are estimates.


    8. "What kind of conditioner should I use on my new Indie Ridge boots?"

    I've probably tried every conditioner/oil that exists. I recommend "Leather CPR". It's cheap and you'll never see the bottom of that tub.


    9. "Do you ship internationally?"

    Yes. But you're responsible for all shipping fees, in addition to duty and fees. Sorry, but you know where you live.


    10. "How do I return or exchange a product?"

    For domestic orders, click anywhere it says "Size Exchanges & Returns", enter the email address you ordered with, and follow the instructions. For international exchanges, contact us at hello@indieridgeusa.com


    You can email us with any other questions just don't ask how to do a Size Exchange or Return.

    Or call us at (323) 207-9181 between 9:30am-5:30pm Pacific Time. If I don't answer, Stephanie (the nice one) will.

    If you leave a message, I'll call you back and we'll talk about nothing, or everything, for 45 minutes.

    - Steve

    I'm a fan. I also made them.

    As usual, I knocked this one out of the park. I took all the improvements from Versions 5.0 and made this bad boy.

    I named it after Joe Walker, one of the test pilots from the X-15 program (Knight, Crossfield, Walker.... I wonder if Armstrong will be coming next?)

    It's a great all around 3-season boot. And because I bought them first, I get to review them first.

    You've done it again, Steve.

    Style and protection!!

    Bought a pair of indie ridge boots! Very stylish and a great safety for your ankle and foot! Recently got into a motorcycle accident and had some pain in foot, but not nearly as much pain, if I didn’t have the pair of shoes on! Firm believer in indie ridge boots and products!! Always keep the shiny side up!! Thanks Steve for an awesome product!!

    Just Look At Em!

    Look at these things, they look awesome. They're super comfortable even before they're fully broken in. Haven't had a chance to put some serious miles on them yet but from the short rides I have taken the ventilation will be a huge improvement on those hotter days.

    Totally satisfied - AGAIN!

    My third pair of Indie Ridge boots. In my almost sixty years of riding, these could be the best equipment purchases I've ever made. Durable, good looking, comfortable right out of the box! And the only dedicated riding boots (with all the safety built in) that are truly all-day "street walkable!" I've modified mine with speed lace hooks.

    Love these boots!

    I am a new Indie Ridge customer. I went on my first ride with these boots in 95 degree weather and my feet stayed cool and dry. These boots are super comfortable and built to last.
