touring boot collection
EICMA saw leading Italian boot specialist Gaerne
unveil the results of their collaboration with W. L. Gore
- the makers of the noted Gore-Tex fabric.
Manufacturer by Gaerne in Italy, the first products
to debut with Gore-Tex fabric membranes include the
G. Prestige, a hard wearing 100% waterproof long
distance boot for "hardcore touring riders". Available
in all popular sizes, in black with colour accents,
Gaerne say that the G.Prestige will "deliver
unprecedented dry comfort and durability".
In addition to the waterproof and breathable GoreTex membrane, the CE certified G.Air touring boot
features upper microfibre with Cordura inserts, front
and rear instep plastic inserts, thermoplastic
protection for the ankle and shin, gear-shift protection,
anatomically designed and removable inner sole, and
an ergonomic rubber sole for multi-surface and onbike grip.

waterproof leather upper with a layer of suede on the
inside to provide heat protection. The waterproof and
breathable Gore-Tex lining makes the G.Midland "the
ideal choice for seasoned riders", according to Gaerne.
The closure system uses two aluminium adjustable
and interchangeable buckles and velcro at the top to
allow the closed boot to adapt to the shape of the calf.
The CE certified G.All Terrain with Gore-Tex
membrane has been designed for adventure touring,
dual-sport and ATV riding. Gaerne say that the
lightweight full grain leather construction provides a
comfortable fit and long lasting wear. Features include
front and rear stretch inserts, toe and heel
reinforcement with an interchangeable front plate and
three aluminium interchangeable and adjustable
buckles.
For female riders, the Black Rose is a fashionably
designed Gore-Tex membrane equipped full grain
leather boot
with added ProTec ankle shield
system and side
closures.
