Fastback Enduro Sole Yellow

[Gaerne Fastback Enduro Sole Yellow Motorcycle Boots Shoes Waterproof] A highly maneuverable model developed for enduro and rally riders.
What stands out most about the Fastback is undoubtedly the "ankle frame" positioned around the ankle. The frames of Gaerne's top motocross boots, the SG-12 and SG-10, typically extend from the ankle to the upper calf. While this significantly improves protection, a drawback is that it makes movement difficult when dismounting the bike. The Fastback's "ankle frame" has a compact design that provides basic protection while also allowing for smooth movement when dismounted. This will be an essential feature for enduro and rally competitions that involve frequent mounting and dismounting.
[Ankle Frame]
So, how exactly does an ankle frame work? In a word, it prevents "twisting." The ankle frame allows for vertical ankle movement while controlling lateral movement. This means you can operate the pedals as usual when riding and walk normally when dismounted, while also protecting you from injuries such as sprains and fractures caused by "twisting" in accidents like falls.
[Pivot System]
A pivot is a rotational axis, and placing this rotational axis at the ankle part of the boot allows the ankle to move. The metal screw at the ankle acts as this axis, and together with the plastic part attached to it, it is called the "pivot system." The biggest advantage of adopting a pivot system is in controlling ankle movement. The design of the pivot system dictates the degree of control, which in turn affects the balance between protection and maneuverability (higher protection leads to lower maneuverability). The Gaerne SG-12, the brand's top boot, prioritizes protection, followed by the SG-10, and then the Fastback, which prioritizes maneuverability.
[Sole Manufacturing Method]
Gaerne is particularly meticulous about the sole manufacturing method when creating boots. The sole manufacturing method not only significantly changes the comfort but also creates a significant difference in protection. Gaerne's competition boots utilize the traditional North Italian manufacturing method, said to "last 100 years," called the Norwegian method, or "Norvegiese." The major advantage of the Norwegian method is the extremely high rigidity of the sole. This manufacturing method has been championed by founder Gazzola since the company's inception and can only be achieved through the skills of true craftsmen. This is one reason why Gaerne boots are still made in Italian factories.
