Packed with innovative materials, technology and design features, the Tech 7 has been completely overhauled to ensure exceptional off-road performance in the dirt. Engineered to be lighter, more comfortable and more protective than ever, the Tech 7 Boots deliver exceptional feel on the bike. The TPU lower shell features an innovative design on the shifter area for reduced front roll and easy shift lever control, with a dedicated design for the left and right foot. This area is further strengthened with a metal shank and is reinforced on the toe zone for impact and abrasion resistance. Equipped with a medial and lateral double pivot system for improved levels of flexibility and precision control. Dedicated design on the medial side wall for improving the feel, support, and grip on the bike, while increasing the protection and durability of the boot. New contoured TPU calf protector plate offers effective impact resistance. The main flexion of the boot is supported around the medial and lateral ankle by a low profile pivot system for superior freedom of movement and rider comfort. The front flexion zone features new innovative shock absorbing inserts in the front bellow zone for progressive support. Shock absorbing padding is also strategically positioned on the ankles and shin plate for increased impact absorption. New strap holder design offers maximum rotation and functionality, while reducing excessive rotation. The sole is made with an innovative wear limit indicator embedded in the foot peg area. This layer displays a red layer alerting the rider when the sole is worn out and needs replacing. The boot structure beneath the wear limit indicator is surrounded by a Kevlar® layer that maintains the structure and integrity of the boot while also protecting the boot.
