Technologies and Materials

3D BUBBLE LINER

Designed and tested to meet the needs of racers like Valentino Rossi, this special three-dimensional fabric enables an air chamber to be created between the inside and the outside of the garment; this chamber forms an insulating liner that maintains an ideal microclimate during both summer and winter.

3D STONE

An innovative high-tech fabric, Dainese 3D Stone is made of 100% high-tenacity nylon in a special chunky three-dimensional weave that creates micro air-pockets. These retard abrasion by generating outstanding mechanical strength, which reaches even higher levels thanks to a polyurethane resin finish that provided abrasion resistance for up to 8 seconds during EN 13595-2 tests.

ABSØLUTESHELL™ PRO 20K WATERPROOF MEMBRANE

ABSØLUTESHELL™ PRO 20K is the waterproof technology that powers a new generation of motorcycle gear. Designed to face the hardest weather conditions, it is a true shield from elements. Thanks to its 2-layer laminated construction, this durable PTFE membrane reaches the highest waterproof performance and extreme breathability standards.Coupled with Dainese premium materials, its flexible construction allows total freedom of movement, making it the perfect companion for unlimited riding experiences.

ARMACOR™

Armacor™ is engineered with GORE-TEX® product technology. The patented latex structure with integrated inserts in Kevlar® enables this technology to guarantee extreme resistance to tears and abrasion, as well as a high degree of lightness.

ARROW XF

ARROW XF is a revolutionary elastic fabric developed and designed by the Dainese Technology Center. This innovative material is optimized to provide unmatched performance even when exposed to the most extreme conditions, setting new standards for abrasion, cut and tear resistance. Its unique composition allows this fabric to guarantee outstanding freedom of movement in four directions and, additionally, as inner lining is no longer required in garment construction, Arrow XF always provides a perfect fit. Another key property of this innovative fabric is its breathability, which prevents the rider from overheating and allows the air to travel through the fabric keeping a steady internal temperature.

ATOP REEL KNOB LACING SYSTEM

The unique ATOP reel knob lacing system with adjustment rotor is found in some of TCX’s motorcycle boot models. The micrometric cable reel fastener calibrates the tension of the outer lace and is designed to facilitate adjusting the fit in the instep and shin area with pinpoint accuracy, making fastening the boot quicker.

AUXAGUARD

AUXAGUARD is a soft, flexible and ergonomic protector. Inspired by the geometry of auxetic structures, which expand in all directions when placed under tension, Auxaguard protective technology ensures extreme flexibility and adaptability, following the movements of the human body with extreme precision. Ultimate ergonomics for a superior fit. Ventilated surface for the highest breathability. Lightweight and comfortable with maximum impact protection in all conditions.

AXIAL DISTORSION CONTROL SYSTEM

The Axial Distortion Control System for feet works thanks to an articulated structure integrated into the boot that serves a triple purpose: it protects against sprains, it reduces intensity of impact by distributing it over the structure‘s entire surface, and it stops objects from entering the shoe.

BI-AXIAL ELASTICATED INSERTS

The Comfort Fit System is designed to ensure motorcycle footwear is perfectly ergonomic – the result of years of TCX® know-how. It has always been one of the strengths of the Touring line of products. This special modeling technique, which is almost entirely manual, allows the boot to be adapted to a "mold" that faithfully reproduces the anatomy of the foot, making the product exceptionally comfortable and ideal for extended use, whether riding or walking.

BOOT LEG STRUCTURE

The leg structure of the Comp Evo 2 boot features a polyurethane protective outer panel and a soft inner upper, developed to fully envelop the leg and provide excellent comfort levels. The upper, made of soft microfiber, wraps around the calf perfectly, and the double Velcro fastening system allows the fit to be customized with pinpoint accuracy to perfectly adapt every rider's boot. The upper elastic collar prevents gravel, dust, and mud from entering the boot, maintaining optimal comfort even in the most challenging conditions.

C.F.S. COMFORT FIT SYSTEM

The Calf Adjustment System, a feature of the TCX Comp Evo 2 boot, is specially designed to adapt to different calf sizes and to easily accommodate all types of knee guards and protectors. Using a movable polyurethane shin plate based on screws that move within hidden holes, the Calf Adjustment System ensures a totally customizable fit: based on the desired range of motion, there are two different settings to choose from. Ensuring that the lower leg is perfectly enclosed is one of the most important elements when wearing an off-road boot; it is essential that it is not too tight or too loose, depending on the type of protector or knee guard worn.
