'Clima' Gore-Tex Surround boots

In the latest of a series of innovations, TCX has partnered with Gore to apply its Gore-Tex Surround technology to a motorcycle boot for the first time - the 'Clima' touring boot, unveiled at EICMA last year.



The structure of the boot's sole is the "main innovation", which has a rubber tread with a non-slip design and is bonded to a thermoplastic rubber midsole with a special ventilation grille which channels all moisture and heat towards holes on the sides. This "exclusive" sole construction works in combination with the breathable and wear-resistant Cordura upper and with the Gore-Tex extended comfort membrane for guaranteed all-round climate comfort, as confirmed by tests conducted between 5 and 35 degrees C. 



The boot's upper features micro injections, which give it movement and structure without stitching. The internal panel is made of microfibre, while "comfort and flexibility of fit are enhanced by padded front and rear folds". An elastic zip concealed by a discreet Velcro band enables easy and secure closure. The boot is reinforced in all sensitive areas (malleolus, shin plate, toe and heel counter) and fitted with a PU shift pad. EC certified to EN 1634:2017 regulations.
