Preguntas frecuentes Ocultar FAQ
What is the Tech‑T collection designed for?
Tech‑T is Alpinestars’ trials‑focused boot collection, engineered for precise peg feel, balance, and control at low to moderate speeds over technical terrain. Constructions emphasize flexibility, a high‑grip sole for traction on rocks and logs, and targeted shin/ankle reinforcement without the bulk of full motocross boots.
Are Tech‑T boots waterproof?
Tech‑T trials boots prioritize breathability, flexibility, and pedal/peg sensitivity, so standard models are not fully waterproof. Uppers and gaiters help resist splashes and debris, but prolonged rain or water crossings may overwhelm them.
If you need sustained weather protection for mixed‑terrain rides, consider weather‑focused alternatives such as adventure motorcycle boots.
Are Tech‑T boots CE certified and what does EN 13634 mean?
Many trials boots in this range carry CE certification to EN 13634, the European standard for motorcycle footwear. EN 13634 evaluates areas like abrasion resistance, impact cut resistance, transverse rigidity, and sole properties, with performance shown by Level 1 or Level 2 ratings.
Certification and level can vary; check each product’s labeling or description for the exact EN 13634 marking.
How should Tech‑T boots fit and how do I choose the right size?
Trials boots should fit snugly around the heel and ankle for support while allowing forefoot flex for balance and bike feel. Use your foot length against the size chart on the product page, factoring in the thickness of trials or enduro socks and any knee/ankle braces. A brief break‑in is normal as the upper and flex zones ease with riding.
Can I use Tech‑T boots for motocross or enduro?
Tech‑T boots are optimized for trials control rather than high‑speed impacts and roost protection. For motocross use, choose dedicated MX boots. Key differences:
| Feature | Trials (Tech‑T) | Motocross |
|---|---|---|
| Primary use | Low‑speed balance, precision | High‑speed jumps, impacts |
| Flex/support | More ankle flex for feel | Stiffer chassis for impact control |
| Sole | High‑grip, walkable compound | Stiffer sole for pegs and landings |
