ALPINESTARS Tech 10 blue / black

Boots ALPINESTARS Tech 10 blue / black. The Tech 10 has set the standard for Motocross boot performance and protection for over a decade and, for summer 2018, the completely redesigned Tech 10 boot elevates performance even further.

Perfection through innovation; While maintaining the iconic Tech 10 look, the new boot represents an entirely new approach: enhancing its ability to provide the rider with the ultimate in feel, comfort and safety.

MAIN CHARACTERISTICS

• Chassis made primarily of advanced lightweight microfiber and impact and abrasion resistant TPU protection plates.
• New motion control system with asymmetric double pivot in the lateral and medial area that offers excellent levels of flexibility and precision in driving.
• New flexible TPU faceplate with a dual density connection system that progressively absorbs and dampens the energy generated by possible impacts.
• Newly designed rear torsion bars made of dual-density TPU to prevent rear hyperextension and provide excellent levels of flexibility and impact resistance.
• Dynamic Heel Compression Protector (DHCP): This is an innovative safety system (patented by Alpinestars) that includes a fully integrated foldable area in the heel area made of expanded polyester foam to absorb high impact energies during an accident, consisting of a directional impact protection system that significantly reduces the effect of energy transfer transmitted to the ankle and lower leg. The DHCP system has been developed and tested in professional Supercross and Motocross circuits.
• Rubber reinforced TPU side panel designed to offer excellent grip, durability and heat protection. The new panels are anatomically contoured and are lighter and thinner.
• Newly designed thinner contoured protector in the calf area that wraps around the back of the leg. Made of a dual-density composite, it is designed to provide progressive damping of torsional forces.
• Anatomically designed shin protector to reduce surface area and save weight.
• The foot structure (5 different densities) is manufactured in a single lightweight piece that offers excellent strength, flexibility and structural integrity. It incorporates protections in the heel and toe area, and is highly resistant to abrasion and impact. Integrated shank for improved support and structural integrity.
• Completely redesigned outsole with patented grip sculpts to improve footpeg performance, grip and to facilitate mud and water drainage. Seamless dual-compound outsole is seamlessly integrated into the multi-density structure of the foot bed with built-in support. The sole offers exceptional durability, grip and feel. The midsole has a micro-grip insert that provides excellent grip. Allows complete sole replacement.
• Redesigned and anatomically optimized buckle closure system. The new mechanical buckle closure system is made of a nylon and fiberglass composite for light weight, strength and durability. The new buckle closure system is thinner and includes cold-forged high-impact closure bridges for excellent precision and strength. The buckles feature self-aligning ratchets with memory. It is a fast, easy and accurate opening/closing system that offers excellent riding performance and safety. All buckles are easily replaceable.  
• High boot area with soft microfiber finish to prevent excessive water and/or dirt from entering.
• The inner lining is made of poly-fabric with 3D open cell foam; incorporates anti-slip suede in the heel area to keep the foot well positioned inside the boot.
• These boots are CE certified to EN13634:2017.
• Redesigned biomechanical inner boot that is lighter and low profile. Features new anatomically redesigned medial and lateral torsion bars to control ankle and leg rotation without sacrificing freedom of movement. New dual-attachment torsion bars provide greater structural integrity and allow the rider to make a natural ankle movement with progressive damping of torsional forces during an impact.
• TPU protection and padded heel and ankle reinforcement for improved shock absorption, and ultra-thin, flexible toe cap for increased sensitivity and control.
• Removable dual-compound anatomical footbed; includes EVA foam for comfort, support and even weight distribution.
