DescriptionThe whole story▼
Track days and warm-weather road riding demand a boot that keeps up all day without cooking your feet — the XPD XP9-R AIR in white/black delivers genuine racing-level protection with a ventilation system you'll actually notice. Whether you're threading through a technical section on a Sunday morning blast or putting in back-to-back sessions at a club trackday, this CE EN 13634 certified boot earns its place in your kit bag ride after ride.
Key Features
- Perforated, vented microfibre upper with high abrasion resistance — keeps air moving even when the pace drops
- CE EN 13634 certified motorcycle boot protection, Racing category S112
- Dual-density vulcanised high-grip rubber sole with toe protection profile and slider retention system
- Replaceable magnesium toe slider plus interchangeable polyurethane calf and heel sliders for lasting performance
- Side zip with microinjection insert for a precise ankle fit, plus a micrometric ratchet closure at the calf for quick, fine-tuned adjustment
- Biomechanic AGS3 (Ankle Guard System) inner bootie for structured ankle support that moves with you
- Removable, antibacterial Air Tech Sensitive Fit footbed for all-day comfort and easy maintenance
Built for Real Riding Conditions
The XP9-R AIR is engineered around a core tension that matters to everyday riders: staying comfortable enough to wear for a full day while offering the structural protection a track demands. Injection-moulded protectors, a reinforced toe and heel section, and the ergonomic D.F.A. Flex-Zone (Differentiated Flexibility Area) work together to give you controlled mobility at the ankle and solid rigidity where an impact could do real damage. You get freedom of movement through the gear-change and brake motions without sacrificing the shell integrity that makes this boot track-legal.
The aerodynamic rear fin maintains a clean profile at speed, while a dedicated gear pad shields the shift lever contact zone — a detail that pays dividends across a long season of regular use rather than just race weekends.
Hot-Weather Ventilation That Actually Works
Heat fatigue is a genuine performance and safety issue on longer rides. XPD addresses it with a multi-layer approach rather than a single marketing claim:
- Perforated vented microfibre upper promotes continuous airflow across the foot
- Air ventilation pockets integrated into the front plate and heel shell draw in fresh air at pace
- Vented neoprene front panel adds a further layer of breathability across the shin
- Neoprene collar seals against dust and debris at the calf without creating a pressure point
The result is a noticeably cooler foot environment during summer road riding and extended track sessions — the kind of difference that keeps your concentration where it belongs.
Fit, Closure and Ergonomics
Getting into and out of the XP9-R AIR is straightforward, and the closure system is designed to stay where you set it. The side zip with microinjection insert allows the ankle zone to mould accurately to your foot shape, while the micrometric ratchet closure at the calf lets you dial in compression with precision — no guesswork, no mid-session readjustment. A diagonally shaped heel section on the sole supports clean, confident footpeg placement, which matters as much on a road peg as it does on an adjustable rearset.
