FAQs
Are these boots suitable for all-weather riding?
The REX AIR boots are primarily designed for warm weather due to their ventilation system. While they offer protection, they are not waterproof and may not be ideal for heavy rain or extreme cold.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by Sidi Sport Srl and measure your foot length accurately. The UK 12 (47) is specified for this variant, but it's always best to check against your measurements.
Can the shin plate be removed?
The shin plate is designed to be replaceable, indicating it can be removed and a new one installed if necessary, but it is not intended for regular removal during use.
What does EN 13634 certification mean?
EN 13634 is a European standard for protective footwear for motorcyclists, ensuring the boots meet specific requirements for abrasion resistance, impact cut, and transfixion resistance.
How durable are the replaceable sliders?
The durability of the replaceable sliders depends on riding style and the frequency of sliding incidents. They are designed to be replaced to maintain the protective integrity of the boot.
Can these boots be used for track days?
While offering significant protection, the REX AIR boots are geared towards road riding. For dedicated track use, specific track-focused boots with higher levels of protection and features might be recommended.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty adjusting the Tecno-3 dial
Ensure the dial is fully loosened before attempting to tighten. If it feels stiff, check for any debris obstruction around the mechanism and clean gently.
Boots feel too tight or too loose
Re-adjust the Tecno-3 dial for a precise fit. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size based on your foot measurement, as Sidi sizing can vary.
Reduced ventilation effect
Check that the air vents are not obstructed by dirt or debris. Clean them gently with a soft brush or damp cloth.
Wear on the replaceable slider
Inspect the slider regularly. If significantly worn, it can be replaced following the manufacturer's instructions for your specific model.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: The REX AIR boots are designed for immediate use upon purchase. Ensure the Tecno-3 dial is loosened before attempting to put on the boot. Once on, tighten the dial gradually until a secure and comfortable fit is achieved. The shin plate and sliders are pre-installed and designed for durability.
Compatibility: These boots are classified as protective clothing for motorcyclists and are certified to EN 13634 standards. They are compatible with standard motorcycle riding gear. Ensure your riding pants can accommodate the boot height.
Care: To clean the boots, use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a thorough wipe-down with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the materials. Allow the boots to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources. Periodically check the sliders and shin plate for wear and replace them as needed.
