The Alpinestars CR-8 Gore-Tex riding shoes are designed for touring riders who need reliable waterproof protection, walking comfort, and motorcycle-specific safety features in changing weather. This Black/Grey/Blue version is offered in US 8.5 / EU 41 and combines a higher-cut profile with a practical, differentiated design compared with the CR-X Drystar shoes. The Gore-Tex membrane delivers 100% waterproof, breathable performance to help keep feet dry and comfortable during long-distance travel and daily riding.
The stretch waterproof outer bootie construction includes breathable textile panels, an angled waterproof zipper closure, and an inner bootie with a speed-lace internal closure system. These features provide a secure fit while helping prevent water intrusion. An elasticated collar supports comfort around the ankle, while the removable OrthoLite insock promotes cushioning and breathability. A 10 mm drop improves walking ergonomics when transitioning from the motorcycle to touring, travel, or everyday activities.
Protection is integrated throughout the shoe for motorcycle use. The internal Alpinestars TPF transversal protection frame midsole helps support the foot and resist unwanted flex, while multilayer malleolus protection helps shield the ankle area. A reinforced heel counter and toe box add structure and impact resistance in key areas. The CR-8 Gore-Tex shoes are suited for riders seeking touring footwear that combines waterproof weather protection, supportive walking performance, and dependable on-road safety.
