FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The Sidi REX AIR boots are designed with a focus on ventilation and breathability. They are not specifically waterproofed and may not be suitable for heavy rain conditions.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the Sidi sizing chart and measure your foot length in centimeters or inches. Compare this measurement to the chart to find your corresponding UK size. It is also recommended to try them on if possible.
Can the sole be replaced?
While the shin plate and slider are replaceable, the main sole is generally not designed for user replacement. Consult with a specialist if sole repair is needed.
What is the main benefit of the Dial closure system?
The Dial closure system allows for quick, precise, and even tension distribution across the foot and leg, enabling easy adjustment while riding.
Are these boots suitable for track days?
While offering substantial protection, the REX AIR is primarily designed for street use. For track-specific performance and protection, consider Sidi models engineered explicitly for racing.
What does EN 13634 certification mean?
EN 13634 is a European standard that certifies protective clothing for motorcyclists, ensuring the boots meet specific safety requirements for abrasion resistance, impact protection, and cut resistance.
How do I clean the interior of the boots?
The interior can typically be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure all soap residue is removed and allow to air dry completely before wearing.
Troubleshooting
Dial closure system feels stiff or difficult to turn
Ensure the cables are properly seated and free of debris. A small amount of dry lubricant can sometimes help, but avoid over-application.
Boots feel uncomfortable after a short period
The boots may require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration. Ensure the closure systems are not overtightened.
Ventilation seems insufficient
Confirm that the air vents are not obstructed by dirt or debris. Clean the exterior of the boot thoroughly.
Shin plate is loose or damaged
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for replacing the shin plate. Ensure the new plate is securely fastened.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Sidi REX AIR Boots feature a Dial closure system and a Tecno-3 pressure closure system. To put them on, loosen these systems fully. Slide your foot into the boot and begin tightening the Dial system by rotating it, and use the Tecno-3 mechanism for the main closure, ensuring a snug but not constricting fit. The shin plate can be adjusted or replaced if necessary.
Compatibility: These boots are designed as protective motorcycle gear (EN 13634). They are compatible with most motorcycle controls and riding postures common for street bikes and sport touring. Ensure your motorcycle's gear shifter and brake lever are adjusted appropriately for use with these boots.
Care: To maintain the condition of your REX AIR boots, clean the exterior regularly with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals or solvents. Allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Periodically check the wear on the replaceable slider and shin plate, and replace them as needed to maintain protection levels.
