Alpinestars XT-8 Gore-Tex Boots

We feel the Alpinestars XT-8 Gore-Tex adventure enduro boot represents a big step up and forward for the legendary brand. The XT-8 is a much more modern design than the Toucan, more protective than the Corozal, at a very competitive price. The XT-8 is designed for ADV Riding but in more demanding conditions. The ankle structure -not really a hinge but similar in function - offers enhanced support, movement control, impact protection, and easy walkability. Weather management is provided by a "Guaranteed to Keep You Dry" waterproof Gore-Tex membrane, making it useful year-round for adventure touring or off-road riding. The XT-8 Gore-Tex adventure enduro boot has a midsole reinforced with with a transversal protective frame (TPF), for flex and cushioning, that delivers all-day walking and riding comfort.
