Axial GORE-TEX® is the top-of-the-range boot for the ultimate sports touring experience, combining the features of the boot used in Moto GP™ with a GORE-TEX® upper that allows the rider to take on the road whatever the weather conditions. At the heart of the boot is the Axial Distortion Control System, a technology that guides the ankle in all its movements, minimizing any kind of injury. The internal structure is made with a composition of carbon & aramid fiber, to offer the foot an extremely resistant but very lightweight shield. Containing the weight in the foot area, & at the extremities in general, is important because in case of a high side, less weight develops less centrifugal force & therefore less speed, which means the impact against the ground is significantly less violent. The Axial GORE-TEX® is designed to be worn inside the pants or suit, for a more streamlined & aerodynamic result. The GORE-TEX® membrane offers excellent waterproofing & insulation against bad weather, while maintaining optimal breathability for great comfort in every situation.
