Yep, and the first few pins in his right ankle will let him understand what proper riding boots are designed for.

Lets just hope he learns that before anything like that happens. lol Broken ankles tend to hurt for a long time. Don't ask how I know.

Mine are anchoring tendons. I have yet to break a bone, and instead hurt everything else around them.

I usually wear high top steel toe work boots to help support my ankles. Gloves with knuckle protection all the time and jeans. I had the experience of road rash at the age of 18. It wasn't pleasant. I don't have any fancy riding gear but do try to wear as much clothing as I can stand in the summer.
