Flex Rating: 7 out of 10
Flex Rating: The flex rating of a boot refers to how stiff the boot is, the higher the relative rating the stiffer the boot. Some boots will list 4 of 5, others may list 8 of 10; two such boots should have similar flex. In general more beginner rider wants a lower flex and more advanced rider a higher flex, but this is not always the case as some beginner riders like more support and some advanced riders like more give. Tongue Pull: A loop of fabric at the top of the tongue helps in putting on and removing the boots. Pull it forward and to the side and your foot should slide right in.
Permanent Liner: This boot comes with a NON removable liner. Non removable liners have the advantage of being smaller for the same size and the disadvantage of not being quite as easy to dry as removable liners. Backstay: The back of this boot is reinforced for strength and stiffness. It gives you the support you need for any ability level. Dual Density Rubber Sole: One type or rubber to add stiffness to the sole, a softer rubber to increase grip. EVA Upper: EVA material for the upper for a soft touch feel mixed with durability. Liner Lace Lock: This liner features a lace lock to speed up the process of putting boots on. Just pull the lace tab upward until snug, then slide the lace lock down into place. It will ensure the boots stay snug throughout the day. When the day is over, just pull up on the lock knob and slide the foot out. Piece of cake! PL Liner: The entry level liner, best suited for beginner to intermediate levels. The locking lace up system ensures a good fit with adequate support for riding at slow to average speeds. |
