FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The Arx Air series is designed for breathability and air circulation; they are not rated as waterproof.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the internal insoles can be removed if you require custom orthotics.
Are these suitable for track days?
While protective, these are designed as street and urban boots and do not provide the full shin-to-toe protection required for track racing.
How do I know if the fit is correct?
Your foot should feel secure with no excessive slipping in the heel, and you should have enough room to wiggle your toes comfortably.
What is D3O protection?
D3O is a patented material that is flexible under normal conditions but locks together upon impact to absorb and dissipate energy.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel loose after riding
Ensure the lock lace mechanism is fully depressed and firmly holding the laces before tucking them into the webbing holder.
Boots feel stiff initially
The Fortex materials require a short break-in period; wear the boots for short durations initially to allow the structure to conform to your foot shape.
Outer material showing signs of grime
Use a mild soap solution and a soft brush to gently clean the surface, followed by a thorough air dry.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- D3O technology provides excellent impact protection.
- Casual aesthetic suitable for off-bike wear.
- Concrecto sole ensures reliable grip.
- Quick and secure lacing system.
- Rear loop makes changing into boots fast.
Cons
- Primarily designed for airflow, which may be cold in winter.
- Not intended for extreme off-road or track racing usage.
- Lace systems require manual tension adjustment compared to dials.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, pull the laces firmly through the lock mechanism and tuck the excess lace neatly into the webbing lace holder to prevent interference with your bike's controls. Ensure your pant legs cover the top of the boots to prevent debris entry. For care, clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove road grime and dust. Do not machine wash or use harsh industrial solvents, as these can degrade the material coatings and impact the performance of the D3O components. Allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to maintain the integrity of the materials.
