The Tech 2,3,4,6,7,8 and 10 series amongst motocross boots from Alpinestars is extremely popular with male motocross riders. These predominantly come in vibrant colors like black, red, silver, tan, white, brown, grey and many other beautiful combinations. The Tech 10 styled motocross boots took 3 years to develop and the high quality can be easily estimated. The light and very compact design of the exterior of these motocross boots makes them a pleasure to wear. The low profile design at the lower part of the boot helps reduce weightage in this portion while streamlined and flexible upper design provides a superb grip on the bike. The upper portion of the motocross boots have a full grain leather material and even come with a PU shell that is totally resistant to any kind of abrasion. This makes each of these motocross boots completely safe for riding even in the toughest terrains. The presence of extra hard materials on the toe box heel and Achilles tendon with a PU shell protects the foot, toes, heel, calf and ankle regions effectively. The double hinged bootie protects ankle regions and reduces any chances at injuries. The bootie inside is perforated and 100 washable as well. The PU panel on the outside of the motocross boots has an anti torsion feature that aids in support and flexibility. The interiors are fit to precision and even come with a poly fabric lining material. The shin pad is completely shock absorbent and the dual compound sole can be seamlessly integrated with the base of the foot along with in built support. The sole comes with a super grip feel and the area of the sole which undergoes maximum wear and tear can be easily replaced. The usage of 3 techno polymer as well as aluminum buckles aids in an advanced technique of closure to adjust the motocross boots with a secure and structured fitting. Interiors of the motocross boots come with maximum grip replete with PU rubber panels for resistance against abrasion and heat. The white model in this collection has an airflow ventilation system as well.
The women’s range of motocross boots is also extraordinary with the same high technology and superior comfort fit in built into the structure. These are available in silver color. The Tech 45 and 65 styles are most popular in the kid’s collections of motocross boots and feature silver, white, black and red color combinations.
