Cortech Latigo Air Road Race Boots

Recommended Posts

They’re finally here, Cortech’s newest motorcycle boots for road racers: the Latigo Air boots. These boots are designed to provide a high degree of ventilation along with armor in all of the right places for impact and abrasion protection. Molded thermoplastic polyurethane is used for the heel cup and shin guard. These armor plates disperse energy over a larger area and are backed with an impact absorbing foam material for shock absorption and comfort. An autolocking zipper runs the length of the inner-facing side that, when opened, allows the foot to slip easily in or out. The zipper itself is covered with an adjustable Velcro flap on the upper portion that also features a bellows for added fore/aft flexibility. Leather stretch panels are also sewn in behind the Achilles and at the top of the front arch, further aiding natural fore/aft movement. To prevent the pain and injury of rolling the foot inward/outward, a rigid thermoplastic polyurethane heel guard limits this type of unnatural movement. This is something you will be thankful for in some situations! Up front, the toes are covered by Cortech’s TecnoGI thermoplastic toe cap and a replaceable toe slider for added safety. Inside all of this, your foot will be stood atop a pre-formed orthopedic foot bed that absorbs vibration, resists bacterial growth and helps your skin breath for a high degree of comfort in warmer weather. Best of all, these boots are very reasonably priced, especially considering the level of safety and protection they offer.

The boot’s interior is completely lined with Cortech’s Air-Mesh breathable liner. This creates an area of space between the wearer and the boot’s outer shell. Hotspots are minimized against the shell’s hard armor and air is allowed to easily move into the boot keeping the foot cool and comfortable.

These new Cortech motorcycle boots can also be had in a white/black color combination.

From the toes back, the boot is highly perforated to encourage efficient airflow to the wearer.

A profile shot of the upper boot reveals Cortech’s use of a large thermoplastic polyurethane armor plate to cover the shin. Shock absorbing material is encased by the device to help prevent painful bruising when your foot comes off the pegs unexpectedly.

A VR sole is used for its durability and reliable grip in a wide range of riding conditions.

“Triple density comfort arch support antifungal contour heel cushion anti bacterial wicks moisture fast dr ing[sic]” reads the preformed orthopedic foot bed. Basically, it means your foot will be comfortable and odor free when it’s firmly planted within the boot.

Toe shifter pegs can really chew up your boots, especially for those of you that corner low and grind into your bike’s hardware occasionally. Cortech addresses this (potential) problem by laying a thick layer of TPU over a wide swath of the toe box. This not only prevents wear in that area, but it also aids the TecnoGI thermoplastic toe cap in preventing injury to the toes in a crash.

After a few weeks out in the wild, we've been hearing good things about these boots, especially in the comfort department for those coming from slightly older boots. The biggest difference seems to be that, unlike an older set of boots one user had, when he pulls the Cortechs off, his socks are still dry.

If you happened to purchase a set of Cortech Latigo boots (or anything else, for that matter), don't be afraid to let us know how they're treating you!
