CR-X Drystar? Shoes - Black/Petrol/Orange - US 9 / EU 42
Designed for riders seeking optimal weather protection and comfort, the Alpinestars CR-X Drystar? shoes feature a durable Drystar? membrane that offers effective waterproofing in wet conditions. This advanced membrane ensures your feet stay dry during rainy rides or damp environments, enhancing overall riding experience and foot comfort. The shoe's construction combines lightweight materials with thoughtful design elements to provide a comfortable fit that feels like a glove, ensuring all-day wearability without sacrificing protection or mobility.
The sole unit incorporates a 9 mm drop, aligning with many running shoes to facilitate a smooth heel-to-toe transition when walking. The EVA midsole delivers excellent cushioning, absorbing shocks and reducing fatigue over long rides. Forefoot flex grooves are integrated into the midsole, promoting natural flexing and enhancing forefoot comfort during dynamic movements. A full-length Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) inner sole plate offers superior riding protection and supports a dynamic transition from heel to toe, making it ideal for both riding and walking.
The outsole features an asymmetric stud configuration that delivers excellent grip and abrasion resistance on various surfaces. An oil-resistant dual rubber compound further enhances traction on unclean or slippery terrains, ensuring rider stability in challenging conditions. The removable Ortholite insock provides long-lasting comfort and prevents overheating, thanks to its open-cell PU construction. Discreet yet effective, hidden asymmetric TPU discs reinforce ankle protection without compromising mobility. The lightweight inner bootie and bellowed tongue construction ensure a secure fit that remains in place during riding, providing added security and comfort.
Durability is prioritized with a highly abrasive-resistant TPU layer in the gear shift zone, protecting against wear and tear. Internal EVA layers between outer and inner materials help reduce pressure on the foot in critical areas, maintaining rider comfort during extended use. Overall, the Alpinestars CR-X Drystar? shoes are engineered to deliver a blend of waterproof protection, comfort, durability, and grip, making them a versatile choice for riders seeking reliable footwear in various riding conditions.
