Full details
The Sidi ARX HIGH WP boots are designed for adult riders who prioritize comfort during daily commutes and long-distance touring without sacrificing essential safety. These leather boots feature an integrated waterproof membrane and D3O ankle protection to ensure your feet remain dry and shielded in various weather conditions. While they offer excellent flexibility for walking, potential buyers should note that the lace-up design requires a manual adjustment process compared to quick-release buckle systems.

FAQs
Are these boots suitable for summer riding?
Yes, while they are waterproof, they are designed for all-day comfort and feature flexible construction that allows for decent airflow during general touring.
Can I replace the soles?
Sidi boots are high-quality, but professional resoling should be done by an authorized cobbler to ensure the structural safety of the boot remains intact.
Are these boots waterproof?
Yes, they feature an integrated waterproof membrane designed to keep your feet dry in rainy riding conditions.
How do I clean the leather?
Use a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh detergents and apply a leather conditioner if the leather starts to look dry.
What does EN 13634:2017 mean?
This is a European safety standard for motorcycle footwear that confirms the boots provide specific levels of abrasion and impact protection.
Troubleshooting
Boots feeling stiff initially
Leather gear requires a short break-in period. Wear them for short walks to allow the material to conform to your foot shape.
Water entering the boot
Ensure the boots are fully laced and that no trouser fabric is tucked in a way that creates a path for water to travel down into the cuff.
Reflective elements appearing dull
Gently wipe the reflective strips with a clean, damp cloth to remove road grime and debris that may be obstructing the reflection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Sidi ARX HIGH WP boots, follow these guidelines:
- Lacing: Ensure the laces are snug but not tight enough to restrict circulation; use the built-in webbing holder to tuck away loose ends to prevent them from catching on the motorcycle controls.
- Leather Maintenance: Clean the leather exterior using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents that may degrade the waterproof treatment.
- Drying: If the interior becomes wet, air dry the boots naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as excessive heat can cause leather to crack.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent material fatigue.
