One of the convenient features Alpinestars added is a set of floating buckles for a comfortable, secure fit. Another thoughtful design was adding a steel footsole shank. Not only does this shank increase boot and ankle protection, but it also prevents the shock from the pegs from being transferred to the lower leg; this minimizes rider fatigue.
Best of all, the Tech 3 is CE certified for tested reliability and performance.
