FAQs
Are these boots suitable for all seasons?
Yes, the GORE-TEX membrane provides waterproofing for wet conditions and breathability for warmer weather, making them suitable for year-round use.
What does EN 13634:2017 certification mean?
This certification indicates that the boots meet specific safety and performance standards for protective footwear for motorcyclists.
How do I clean the GORE-TEX membrane?
The GORE-TEX membrane is integrated within the boot. Clean the exterior of the boot as per the care instructions. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could compromise the membrane's integrity.
Can I wear these boots for walking off the motorcycle?
The boots are designed for motorcycle riding but offer a comfortable fit and non-slip sole that allows for walking during stops. However, they are not intended as dedicated hiking boots.
What is the primary intended use for these boots?
These boots are primarily designed for touring and everyday motorcycle use, offering a balance of comfort, protection, and weather resistance.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Try the boots on with the socks you typically wear while riding. Ensure there is enough room for your toes and that the ankle and shin areas are snug but not constricting. Consider the break-in period.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try wearing them with your usual riding socks. Allow for a break-in period of a few rides, as the materials will conform to your foot shape.
Zipper is difficult to operate.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Applying a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant to the zipper teeth can help.
Water seeping into the boots.
Check for any damage to the GORE-TEX membrane or seams. Ensure the zipper and Velcro closure are fully secured. If leakage persists, the boots may require professional inspection or replacement.
Sole feels slippery.
Clean the sole with water to remove any dirt or debris that may be reducing traction. The non-slip rubber sole is designed for grip, but contamination can affect performance.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a damp cloth to clean the exterior. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a thorough wipe with a clean damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or solvents.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or fires, as this can damage the materials.
