Dainese Torque 4 Motorcycle Boots for Men - Black

Evolved directly from the Axial 2, the Dainese Torque 4 represents the culmination of race-derived engineering applied to a boot equally at home on a Sunday track day or a fast road ride. The construction centres on a microfibre upper reinforced with D-Stone™ fabric — a combination chosen for its exceptional abrasion resistance and low weight — while a TPU D-Axial protection system guards the ankle and foot against rotational forces that cause the most damaging injuries in a crash.

Key Features

• D-Axial TPU protection system shields the foot and ankle against torsional forces during impact
• Replaceable magnesium sliders at the toe and heel promote controlled sliding and absorb crash energy
• Asymmetric Groundtrax® sole delivers strong grip and heat resistance at the gear lever and brake pedal
• Impact absorber beneath the shin guard disperses energy before it reaches the leg
• Quick-lace system and rear zip work together for a precise, secure fit that takes seconds to achieve
• Double Jersey Airgap lining circulates air to manage temperature across long stints
• CE certified Category II to EN 13634 — the highest protection class for motorcycle boots

Construction and Materials

Dainese built the Torque 4 around materials that earn their place through performance rather than marketing. The microfibre upper is light, supple and extraordinarily tough, resisting abrasion in the event of a slide while conforming to the foot over time. D-Stone™ fabric reinforcement adds another layer of cut and tear resistance at the most vulnerable zones without adding stiffness where it is not needed. A removable and replaceable magnesium heel cup provides a hard outer shell that both protects and promotes the sliding behaviour that reduces peak impact loads during a fall. TPU shift guard at the gear lever zone prevents wear from repeated contact, extending the life of the boot through hard use.

Ergonomics and Fit

The Torque 4 is designed to disappear on the foot. Flexible articulated joints at the ankle allow the natural range of motion needed for precise lever and peg feel, while the quick-lace system lets riders dial in an exact, even fit across the instep. The rear zip makes entry and exit straightforward even in full leathers, and the overall silhouette is trim enough to sit neatly inside a race suit or riding trouser. The Double Jersey Airgap interior lining keeps air moving around the foot, resisting the heat build-up that leads to fatigue on longer sessions.

Replaceable and Serviceable Components

One of the practical strengths of the Torque 4 is that its protective sliders can be replaced when worn, keeping the boot performing at its designed level without requiring the purchase of an entirely new pair. Three replacement slider kits are available to suit different preferences and conditions:

• 1999948 Kit Stiefel Magnesium — magnesium boot slider kit
• 1999885 Edelstahl Stiefel Slider Kit — stainless steel boot slider kit
• 1999954 Kit Stiefel Slider Kunststoff 16 — plastic boot slider kit 16

Fitment and Compatibility

The Dainese Torque 4 is a men's motorcycle boot available in a full size run from 38 through to 48, covering the majority of European foot sizes. It is intended for use in both road and track environments and suits sport, supersport and race-oriented riding where a high level of foot and ankle protection is required alongside strong feel and control.
