GIANNI FALCO Lennox 3 Lady Black

The style of motorcycle shoes and boots not only defines their appearance but also largely determines their intended use and the riding conditions for which they are designed. Some models fit into multiple style categories. Our product specialists have therefore decided, for certain models, to assign more than one style to reflect the footwear’s versatility. Below are the different styles, each with their typical characteristics and applications:

• Adventure: designed for both on- and off-road use. These shoes and boots are robust, provide extra protection for ankles and shins, and are suitable for long rides, varying weather conditions, and rough terrain.
• Sport: focused on sporty riding and high performance. Sport motorcycle shoes and boots fit snugly, have reinforcements in critical areas, and provide maximum control and protection during dynamic and fast riding.
• Touring: developed for comfort on long distances. Touring models combine good protection with wear comfort, often featuring waterproof materials and an ergonomic fit for hours of riding enjoyment.
• Urban: designed for everyday city use. These models often look like regular shoes but feature discreet reinforcements and offer a good balance of protection, comfort, and casual style.
• Vintage: inspired by classic motorcycle styles. Vintage motorcycle shoes and boots combine a retro look with modern safety features and are popular among riders who want functionality paired with timeless design.

The type indicates which main category the footwear belongs to, distinguishing between tall motorcycle boots and lower motorcycle shoes or sneakers. This affects protection level, comfort, and intended use. Below are the two types:

• Motorcycle boots: tall models that provide enhanced protection for the ankles and shins. Motorcycle boots are particularly suited for touring, sporty, or adventure riding, where safety and support are key.
• Motorcycle shoes and sneakers: lower-cut models offering greater freedom of movement and comfort, often with a casual appearance. They are ideal for everyday use, commuting, and short rides, while still featuring motorcycle-specific protective elements.

The gender indication helps determine which target group the motorcycle shoes or boots are designed for, taking foot shape, fit, and comfort into account. Below are the available options:

• Men: designed around the average male foot shape. These models typically offer a wider fit and are tailored to the anatomy and riding posture of male riders.
• Women: specifically developed for the female foot. Women’s models often feature a narrower heel, adjusted instep, and a fit that better matches female anatomy, without compromising on protection.
• Kids: intended for young riders or passengers. These models are smaller, lighter, and adapted to children’s feet, with a focus on comfort and essential protection.

The water resistance of motorcycle shoes and boots determines how well they protect against rain and moisture while riding. Depending on your riding conditions and preferences, you can choose from the following options:

• Waterproof: features a waterproof membrane that keeps feet dry in rainy and wet conditions. These models are suitable for everyday use and changing weather, without using a specific branded membrane.
• Not waterproof: designed for maximum ventilation and comfort in dry and warm conditions. These models offer no rain protection, but are often lighter and more breathable.
• Gore-Tex waterproof: equipped with a Gore-Tex membrane, known for its long-lasting waterproof performance combined with excellent breathability. This option is ideal for riders who frequently ride in wet conditions and deliberately choose Gore-Tex as a premium quality standard.

The closure system of motorcycle shoes and boots determines how they are put on, secured, and adjusted around the foot and ankle. Some models combine multiple closure systems to enhance fit, convenience, and safety. Below are the available options:

• ATOP dial: a dial-based system that tightens or loosens a steel cable. It allows for quick and precise adjustment, even while wearing gloves.
• BOA dial: similar to the ATOP system, also using a dial and steel cable. BOA is known for its durability and even pressure distribution.
• Double zipper: these boots feature a zipper on both sides, making them especially easy to put on and take off. Commonly found on taller boots.
• None: models without an active closure system, often slip-on designs that rely on their shape and structure to stay securely in place.
• Buckle: a classic and very secure closure system, mainly used on adventure and off-road boots. Buckles provide a strong and adjustable fit.
• Quicklace laces: a quick-lacing system that allows the shoe to be tightened in a single motion, ideal for fast and easy use.
• Zipper: a practical closure that makes putting on and taking off easier. Zippers are often combined with other systems such as laces or velcro.
• Velcro: hook-and-loop fastening, typically used as additional fixation, for example over a zipper or around the shaft for a secure closure.
• Laces: traditional lacing system that allows precise adjustment of the fit. Often combined with a side zipper for added convenience.

Gear shift reinforcement indicates whether the footwear features an additional protective panel in the gear-shift area, designed to prevent wear and damage caused by the gear lever. The available options are:

• Yes: the footwear is equipped with a reinforced panel at the point of contact with the gear lever. This increases durability and protects the material from premature wear.
• No: the footwear does not include a dedicated gear shift reinforcement. This may be sufficient for light use, but offers less protection against wear from gear shifting.

Ankle protection indicates whether the footwear features additional protection at ankle height, a vulnerable area in the event of a fall or impact.

Ventilation indicates how well the footwear allows air to circulate and keeps the foot cool while riding. Depending on design and materials, there are three options:

• Perforated: the footwear features zones of mesh fabric or perforated leather, allowing air and wind to enter actively. These models are not waterproof and have no membrane, but provide maximum ventilation.
• Ventilated: the footwear includes breathable textiles or openings that let air circulate, keeping the foot cool. These models are also not waterproof and have no membrane, but offer comfortable ventilation in warm weather.
• Not ventilated: waterproof shoes or boots with a membrane allow very little air to pass, keeping the foot dry but offering no active ventilation.

A raised insole means the boot features a thicker or elevated insole on the inside, without this being visible from the outside. This can help improve foot positioning and confidence when stopping. The options are:

• Yes: the boot has a raised insole. This is especially helpful for shorter riders who want to reach the ground more easily, without compromising comfort or appearance.
• No: the boot has a standard insole with no additional height.

The material of motorcycle shoes and boots affects comfort, durability, maintenance, and protection. Below are the three main material types:

• Synthetic leather: man-made material resembling leather, lightweight and often water-repellent. Synthetic leather is easy to maintain and affordable, but offers slightly less breathability and wear resistance than genuine leather.
• Leather: natural material providing excellent breathability, durability, and protection. Leather shoes and boots often mold to the foot over time, but require regular care to protect against moisture.
• Textile: lightweight and breathable material, often used in ventilated or sporty models. Textile provides comfort and airflow but less wear resistance and protection than leather or synthetic leather, and is usually not waterproof without an additional membrane.

Color indicates which colors are present on the footwear. Since many models combine multiple colors, a product can fall into several color categories. Below is the explanation:

• More than one colour: the footwear may feature several colors. Each individual color is listed separately so you can filter precisely for the colors present.
• Single color: the footwear consists of one dominant color, making it easy to match and giving a uniform appearance.

The outer material of motorcycle shoes and boots largely determines protection, durability, and wearing comfort. Manufacturers use various materials or combinations thereof, depending on the intended use, style, and desired characteristics of each model.

Because there is a wide variety of outer materials, no fixed option list is used here. The specific outer material is listed individually in the product specifications for each model.

The membrane determines whether a shoe, boot, or sneaker is waterproof and how breathable it is. It is located on the inside of the footwear and prevents external moisture from entering while allowing internal moisture to escape.

The lining of motorcycle shoes affects comfort, breathability, and moisture management inside the footwear. Depending on the model, the lining can be made from different materials:

• Air-Tech: breathable lining with ventilation channels designed to improve air circulation and heat dissipation.
• 3D-mesh: three-dimensional structured lining that allows air to pass through and wicks moisture quickly, keeping the foot climate comfortable.
• None: the footwear has no specific lining, often found in simple or minimalist models.
• Leather: natural material that feels soft, ventilates well, and absorbs moisture, providing comfort and durability.
• Mesh: synthetic mesh material that allows airflow and increases breathability.
• Polyamide: strong, breathable material that transports moisture effectively and keeps the interior comfortable.
• Polyester: lightweight, durable material that wicks moisture and dries quickly, ensuring comfort in various conditions.
