Alpinestars believe in perfection through innovation; while maintaining the iconic Tech 10 look, the latest iteration of the boot works tirelessly to offer a rider the ultimate in feel, comfort, and overall safety, lifting the ceiling of what a premium motocross boot should be higher than ever before.
The Tech 10s ongoing development has been guided by three key priorities, as the Alpinestars technical footwear team looked to improve overall functionality, performance, and safety, decrease weight, and reduce material volume on the boot. Maximizing these priorities is the key achievement of the latest Tech 10 and the result is a far greater range of movement and flexibility, while offering better control over the flexion and torsion forces that significantly improve boot performance, giving the rider greater confidence and protection.
The comfort of a Tech 10 boot is legendary and a key feature in making the boot a go-to option for riders taking on all kinds of riding conditions, so maintaining comfort while upgrading boot performance was vital all throughout the development phase. The most significant upgrades to the current Tech 10 are a host of unique technologies: the Frontal Flexion Control Frame, the Asymmetrical Dual-pivot Arms, and the patented Dynamic Heel Compression Protection Shock Absorber which is integrated into a redesigned foot shell which features a slimmer, more streamlined, outsole.
Key features
- Innovative, lightweight upper construction.
- The Tech 10 chassis combines advanced lightweight microfiber and impact and abrasion-resistant TPU shell.
- Foot shell features five different compounds in a single lightweight piece to offer strength while maintaining flexibility and structural integrity. Foot shell incorporates heel and toe protection that is highly resistant to abrasion and impact and adds to the boots overall durability. Foot shell also includes integrated shank for support and structural integrity.
- Frontal protection features a dual closure system with an internal microfiber flap, plus hook and loop fasteners for a precise fit closure beneath the buckle giving greater, micro-adjustable, precision which is convenient to operate. Soft microfiber gaiter helps seal out excessive water and dirt entry.
- Poly-fabric lining with 3D open cell foam incorporates anti-slip suede in heel area, keeping the foot located inside the boot.
Protection
Unparlleled flex control, DCHP - unique heel protection innovation, New inner ankle brace, Anatomical shin and calf-plates, Unique sole integration, Buckle closure system, Innovative, lightweight upper construction
Construction
- DCHP - unique heel protection innovation
- Built into the Tech 10s unique and lightweight single-piece co-injected foot chassis is the patented Dynamic Heel Compression Protector (DHCP), an innovative safety feature that includes a fully integrated collapsible heel area with expanded poly-foam to absorb high impact energies during a crash. DCHP features a directional impact protection system that significantly reduces the effect of excessive, potentially injury-causing, energy being transferred to the ankle and lower leg. DHCP has been used by Alpinestars athletes in the demanding environments of professional Supercross and Motocross.
- The Tech 10 boot is CE certified.
