Alpinestars | Tech 10 Enduro Boot

Alpinestars | Tech 10 Enduro Boot Alpinestars’ Tech 10 is the benchmark motocross boot and now the performance and protection envelope has been raised even higher with the creation of the Tech 10 Enduro version, a boot with a completely redesigned sole specifically engineered to offer the ultimate grip while offering Enduro riders with the highest levels of protection. FEATURES The CE-certified Tech 10 Enduro boot features its own dedicated ‘Enduro’ spec dual compound sole that is seamlessly integrated to the multi-density foot base structure with built-in support to offer superior durability, grip and feel while riding, and enhanced performance on the shifter. The Tech 10 Enduro’s design improves overall functionality; performance and safety, while decreasing weight and reducing material volume. A key innovative feature of the Tech 10 Enduro is the patented Frontal Flexion Control Frame. Combining with the dual front and the rear blade connectors, the frame acts as a shock absorber by distributing energy across the boot frame while controlling forward and rearward flex. This gives the Tech 10 Enduro boot a complete and seamless flexion control system, from the footshell all the way up to the shin plate, offering high performance double motion control, preventing over-compression and hyper-extension. The Tech 10 Enduro is equipped with Alpinestars ankle control system, which is integrated in the outer shell to allow natural ankle movement, vertical compression control and improved flex control and impact resistance. This is complemented by inner ankle brace and the unique heel protection innovation; the patented Dynamic Heel Compression Protector (DCHP). This significantly reduces the effect of excessive, potentially injury-causing, energy being transferred to the ankle and lower leg. The Tech 10 Enduro has a Frontal Flex Frame, a complete and seamless flexion control system, from the foot shell all the way up to the shin plate, offering high-performance double motion control to prevent over-compression and hyper-extension. Incorporated into the frontal outer chassis of the boot and working in conjunction with Alpinestars unique, patented, dual torsion bar inner ankle brace, the Frontal Flex Frame is engineered to ‘float‘ freely between the upper and lower boot, acting as a shock absorber by distributing energy across the boot frame while controlling forward and rearward flex, progressively releasing force which dampens and absorbs impact energies. Other rider friendly touches include a slimmer and more streamlined profile with a contoured calf protector ergonomically wrapping around the leg, a dual compound removable anatomic footbed with EVA for comfort, support and even weight distribution, an ultra-thin and flexible forefoot area for increased sensitivity and control, and a new easier to operate, more secure mechanism on the triple buckle closure system. PROTECTION The TPU lower shell features an innovative design on the shifter area, 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. The lightweight microfiber upper features extensive TPU protection on the toes, foot, heel, ankle, calf, and shin with extra hard compounds on the toe-box, heel for additional impact and abrasion resistance. Equipped with a poly-fabric lining with 3D open cell foam and anti-sliding suede reinforcement on the heel area for enhanced abrasion resistance. The Tech 10 Enduro Boots are CE certified to EN 13634:2017. CONSTRUCTION Co-injected for strength and to maintain the boot’s structure, the Tech 10 Enduro’s exclusive TPU and rubber compound panels provide superb levels of grip contact, durability and heat resistance. The shin plate area is equipped with strategically positioned ventilation windows for superior airflow and ventilation without compromising impact protection. The soft microfiber gaiter features a dedicated design especially for the back of the boot that effectively seals out excessive water and dirt entry. Dual closure system with an internal microfiber flap, plus hook and loop fasteners, for a precise fit closure. The closure system includes lightweight polymer buckles plus an aluminum frame with self-aligning, quick release closures for a customized secure fitment. The pull flap is engineered to offer increased prehensility. Made in Thailand
