Alpinestars expands its MX26 Footwear Collection with the Tech 7 Enduro Drystar® Boots, adding full waterproof capability to one of its most established enduro boots. Purpose-built for riders who routinely tackle wet trails, river crossings, puddles, mud, and prolonged rain.

The Drystar® membrane is integrated into the inner liner, engineered for full waterproofing, high breathability, and long-term durability — keeping feet dry and comfortable through extended enduro rides where traction, protection, and comfort are critical. The boots feature a revised enduro-specific fit with a slightly lower toe angle for a more comfortable ride.

KEY TECHNICAL PERFORMANCE FEATURES

• Drystar® Technology Integrated Into Inner Liner — 100% waterproof with high breathability and lasting durability.
• Enduro-Specific Dual Compound Sole: Integrated into a reinforced, multi-density footbed, the sole provides reliable grip on wet ground, rocks, and trail surfaces, while maintaining durability under repeated impacts and dismounts.
• Extensive TPU Protection: Reinforced areas on toes, foot, heel, ankle, calf, and shin, with extra durable compounds on the toe box and heel for maximum impact resistance.
• Wear Limit Indicator Sole: Alerts riders when the sole is worn out and requires replacement.
• Medial and Lateral Dual Pivot System: Strategically positioned for enhanced flexibility and precise control - allows controlled ankle movement while limiting excessive torsion, supporting stability without restricting mobility.
• High-Strength Buckle System: Polymer buckles mounted on a high-impact aluminum frame for durability and weight savings, features a quick-release locking system with a self-aligning design for secure, fast closure.
• Soft Ankle Reinforcements: For lasting comfort and shock absorption.
• Progressive Front Flexion Design: Featuring shock-absorbing inserts in the front bellow to manage impact loads during aggressive riding and repeated compressions.
• Expanded Calf Adjustment Range: Wider range of calf adjustment for a secure, customized fit across a broader range of riders.

PURPOSE-BUILT FOR ENDURANCE AND THE TOUGHEST TERRAINS
The Tech 7 Enduro Drystar Boot is designed for riders who routinely encounter water, mud, and unpredictable terrain and require equipment that performs consistently. Waterproof, race-proven, and lightweight — the definitive choice for hardcore enduro riders who ride through the elements, not around them.

Australian off-road adventure rider Adam Reimann has been testing the Tech 7 Enduro Boots in real-world riding conditions and shared his feedback below:

“I’ve been wearing the Tech 7 Enduro Boots for a few months now. My riding background is enduro, and the boot has got the perfect shape, rigidity, and feel. It goes without saying that it's protecting me, but what I like about it the most is just the comfort.

With the kind of riding I do—whether it’s trial riding or travelling on a bike off-road—I can be in the boots from sunrise to sunset. Comfort really matters, especially when you’re off the bike, walking around camp or getting fuel. You actually need to be able to walk in the boots, and they are just the most comfortable pair of shoes you've ever worn.

What impressed me is the design and how the boot is engineered to provide comfort—there’s no pressure on any one part of your foot, just uniform, even comfort from your toe through to your shin. That’s something I really notice over long days. There’s nothing I can fault about the Tech 7 Enduro Boots. They look really good too—just typical Alpinestars.”

The Tech 7 Enduro Drystar® Boots will be available online beginning January 19, at www.alpinestars.com.
