Size
The ILM M1005 is a tall leather riding boot that rises well above the low shoes in this range, covering the ankle and part of the shin. A side zip makes it quick to get on and off, and the ankle, heel and toe are all reinforced. Priced at 3,120,000 VND at BigBike with a 12 month warranty.
Positioning
Straight answer: the M1005 is the tallest model in the ILM range here, for riders who want the ankle covered rather than just the foot.
Specifics: a leather boot with a side zip that takes seconds to put on, with reinforcement at the ankle, heel and toe. The product label records the basic European protection tier.
Note: the maker does not publish a waterproof rating for this model, so treat it as a dry-weather boot and pack rain covers for the wet season.
Stepping up from a low shoe
Benefit: The ankle is the joint that rolls when a foot is trapped under a bike. A tall boot wraps that joint and limits how far it can twist sideways compared with a low shoe.
Proof: The tall shaft and the reinforcement around the ankle are what ILM lists for this model.
Limit: A tall boot runs hotter than a low shoe and presses on the ankle during long walks. For short daily city hops it can feel like overkill.
Weather and use
Benefit: A laced tall boot costs a minute every time you put it on or take it off. The side zip solves exactly that, in one pull.
Proof: ILM describes the M1005 as a leather boot with a side zipper.
Limit: The zip carries load on a tall boot, so avoid yanking it and keep grit out of the teeth.
Genuine and warranty
Benefit: The toe takes the crush load, the heel takes the slide, the ankle takes the twist. The M1005 reinforces all three.
Proof: The product label records the basic tier of the European standard for motorcycle footwear.
Straight talk: Reinforcement softens an injury rather than making a fall harmless. Regular high-speed riding calls for a racing boot with buckles.
Comparison
Choose the M1005 when: you want the most ankle coverage in the ILM range and ride mainly in dry weather.
Choose the ILM UB305 when: you want leather with a waterproof membrane and a tidier look off the bike.
Choose the RS Taichi RSS-010 when: your route includes dirt and needs a grippy Vibram sole.

The table converts EU sizes to foot length in centimetres for a quick check.
A tall boot adds something a low shoe does not have: the circumference of the ankle and lower calf. A rider with larger calves may match on length yet find the shaft tight, so trying a pair in store is the safest route.
If your length falls between two sizes, take the larger one. Message BigBike on Zalo at 0906902404 to ask what is in stock.
