The Alpinestars CR-8 Gore-Tex riding shoes are designed for touring riders who need dependable waterproof protection, breathable comfort, and walking-friendly performance in changing weather. Finished in Black/Grey/Red and offered in US 12.5 / EU 46, these riding shoes feature a higher-cut design with a distinct touring profile compared with the CR-X Drystar shoes. The integrated Gore-Tex membrane helps keep rain and moisture out while allowing internal heat and vapor to escape for comfortable all-day wear.
The stretch waterproof outer bootie construction combines with breathable textile panels, an angled waterproof zipper closure, and an inner bootie equipped with a speed-lace internal closure system. An elasticated collar helps provide a secure, comfortable fit, while the removable OrthoLite insock supports cushioning and breathability. A 10 mm drop improves walking ergonomics when transitioning from the motorcycle to everyday activities.
Protection is built into the shoe with an internally integrated Alpinestars TPF transversal protection frame midsole, multilayer malleolus protection, and reinforced heel and toe areas. These features help provide support and impact resistance while maintaining practical flexibility for touring use. The CR-8 Gore-Tex shoes are suitable for motorcycle touring, commuting, and extended travel where reliable weather protection and off-bike comfort are important.
