Long days in the saddle demand a boot that works as hard on comfort as it does on protection — and the XPD XP9-S AIR in White/Black is engineered precisely for that. Built around a systematically vented architecture, it keeps heat and fatigue at bay whether you're threading lap after lap on track or covering serious miles on the road, without sacrificing a single gram of racing-grade protection.

Key Features

• Perforated, high-abrasion-resistant microfibre upper with air-ventilation pockets at the front plate and heel shell for continuous airflow
• 3D Air Mesh inner lining combined with soft-polymer memory foam padding — active air circulation where a conventional liner would trap heat
• CE EN 13634 certified motorcycle protective boot
• Replaceable lightweight magnesium toe slider, plus replaceable polyurethane calf and heel sliders/inserts
• Injection-moulded external armour and internal TPU-moulded ankle protectors for low-profile, high-feedback protection
• Micrometric ratchet calf closure with quick-release buckle and lateral zip with microinjection insert for a precise, secure fit every time
• Air Tech Sensitive Fit antibacterial, replaceable footbed and D.F.A. (Differentiated Flexibility Area) ergonomic nylon insole

All-Day Comfort You Can Actually Feel

The XP9-S AIR earns its suffix through a layered ventilation system rather than a single token perforation. Outside, the vented and perforated microfibre shell channels moving air directly into the boot. Air-ventilation pockets built into the front plate and heel shell sustain that flow even at lower speeds. Inside, a full 3D Air Mesh lining circulates air against the foot rather than letting it stagnate, while memory foam padding with soft-polymer construction absorbs pressure points before they become fatigue. The Air Tech Sensitive Fit footbed is antibacterial and fully replaceable — a detail that matters enormously over a full season of trackdays and touring days alike.

The result on a hot summer ride is tangible: less heat build-up, less of that heavy-legged feeling after long sessions, and more mental bandwidth for the riding itself.

Racing Protection Without the Bulk

When you're riding hard, protection that interferes with feel is no protection at all. The XP9-S AIR resolves this through precise ergonomics rather than added mass. Injection-moulded external armour guards the critical zones without adding unnecessary height, while internal TPU-moulded ankle protectors sit close to the joint and stay there. The toe and heel are reinforced for stability and energy absorption, and the medial side is clad in heat- and abrasion-resistant suede microfibre — specifically chosen for contact zones against a frame or footpeg assembly under thermal load.

The D.F.A. Differentiated Flexibility Area in the ergonomic nylon insole calibrates stiffness and flex exactly where the foot needs each — support through the arch and heel, freedom through the ball and toe box for confident peg feel.

Grip, Footpeg Positioning and Control

The personalised high-grip sole uses dual-density vulcanised rubber with a diagonal heel design that naturally guides the foot into a clean position on the footpeg. Whether you're riding on the ball of the foot, transitioning quickly between braking and shifting, or hanging off through a long corner, the sole delivers consistent traction and clear tactile feedback to the ground. A dedicated slider retention channel keeps the toe slider precisely located — critical when you're scraping through a fast chicane.

Fit and Fastening: In Fast, Locked Tight

• Lateral zip with microinjection insert: low-profile ankle seal, easy entry and exit
• Micrometric calf adjustment with quick-release ratchet: fine-tune the fit in seconds, release it just as fast
• Microinjected neoprene collar: seals against dust and insects, comfortable against the shin on long rides

Once the boot is closed, it stays exactly where you set it — no mid-corner adjustment, no creeping looseness over a two-hour stint.
