+1 on the riding boots. I just replaced a pair of Ku****ani because they looked terrible after I took a spill, but they where still in good shape structurally. They did their job well.
When I think about the bare metal spot they rubbed into the engine cover, then take a look at my fully intact, fully functional, zero road rash feet and lower shins, the choice is obvious. That's just me though.

deej.....you're joking right 
If you let your wife ride her bike w/o ridin boots.....that is just irresponsible as a husband.....you're a big boy and can ride in a tank top, shorts an slaps, your choice and your F'up ankles for the rest of your life......but ya got to protect the lady....not the paint.

I don't wear riding boots, they are the single reason for paint rubs on bikes. Get this, my wife's' bike with only 600 miles on it was spotless, and a few months back when I took it and a friend riding for the day over at Tahuya, in just a half day his riding boots wore off the paint on the side covers. No thanks, I like my camo boots and jeans.
