Looking for a versatile, protective boot that can handle difficult weather conditions? Look no further than the Alpinestars Belize Drystar Boots. Constructed from PU coated leather with heat press texture on the higher medial panel, these boots offer both durability and style. The lightweight microfibre used in the rear accordion and front panels ensures flexibility and comfort.

But it’s not just about looks – these boots also prioritize safety. With a TPU shin plate and calf plate design, they offer support and resistance to impacts. An inner double density TPU ankle protector on the medial side provides additional protection, while soft polyfoam surrounds the ankle and collar for shock-absorbing performance.

In addition to their protective features, these boots are also incredibly convenient to use. A wide entry aperture with an upper hook-and-loop closure flap makes them easy to put on/take off quickly when you’re in a hurry or need to switch footwear fast.

The innovative two polymer buckle closure system locks easily into place thanks to its ratchet mechanism that allows for quick release (no more struggling with laces!). Meanwhile, the TPU shift pad made with technical texture foam padding offers added grip so you can stay firmly planted on your bike at all times.

Comfort is key during long rides as well! That’s why Alpinestars have included their bio-mechanical lateral ‘Flexi-Blade’ system which ensures greater comfort by supporting your foot through every move without feeling restrictive or tight around any one area.

The toe box and heel counter reinforcement are layered under the upper: this means extra protection where it counts most! And thanks to their co-injected polypropylene sole combined with steel shank technology along with Alpinestars exclusive vulcanised rubber & PU injected midsole provide you an exceptional feel of control over your motorcycle while riding.

Finally, an anatomical EVA footbed lined with Lycra ensures that your feet stay comfortable, dry and happy throughout the day. With a sporty design that stops just under the calf and CE certification to EN 13634:2010 standards, these boots are sure to become your go-to choice for any ride!
