I’m gonna go out on a limb and ask what exactly happened?

Doozy of a splinter I gather, but I’ll leaf it alone

What kind of boot is that? Some kind of chainsaw gear?

Dirt bike/motocross boot. This guy (or girl) was riding/racing a dirt bike offroad- think hiking trails. Gearne is not a cheap brand either, their top-tier SG-12 boot is usually $5-600 a pair. And they are a superior quality brand. I’m not sure what tier boot this is since i cant see all the signage, but this is truely a freak accident that no quality of foot protection would have prevented. With that said- that stick is clean, so their foot is most likely fine. Edit: forgot to mention; the white/orange combo does match a lot of chainsaw gear, so good call. But, this person most likely rode a KTM, which are primarily white and orange, and KTM riders love buying orange gear to match, lol. You can get these boots in a variety of different color combos, however

Why do you got to call me out like that… I swear all the orange anodised parts were already on the bike when I bought it… The dealer also gave me their branded day glow orange hoodie with the purchase, what am I going to do? Not wear it!!!

Haha, i’m in the same boat, man! When I bought my Husky it was already covered in blue anodized parts! No way I would ever spend money re-buying the same part serving the same function at no better capacity, only in a different color! Outrageous!
Seriously, though…it was already covered in all the bling parts, but if I had to replace something (barkbusters, rear rotor guards, etc) I almost always caved and got the blue option……
