FAQs
Are the Sidi Performer boots suitable for racing?
The Sidi Performer boots offer good protection for general riding and spirited road use. For professional racing, specialized racing boots with advanced features like ankle support systems and more rigid construction might be preferable.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by Sidi and measure your foot length in centimeters or inches. Compare this measurement to the corresponding UK size. It's recommended to try them on if possible, considering the thickness of your riding socks.
Can the sliders be replaced if they wear out?
Yes, the Sidi Performer boots come with replaceable sliders. This feature allows you to extend the lifespan of the boots by replacing worn sliders, especially after contact with the asphalt.
Are these boots waterproof?
The boots are constructed with water-resistant materials and feature a breathable lining, but they are not fully waterproof. They are suitable for general riding conditions, but for prolonged exposure to heavy rain, waterproof over-boots are recommended.
What is the primary material used for the upper?
The upper is made from Technomicro microfiber, a synthetic material known for its durability, lightness, and water-resistant properties.
How do I clean the Technomicro microfiber?
Clean the Technomicro microfiber with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using solvents or harsh cleaning agents. Allow the boots to air dry naturally.
Troubleshooting
Boots are difficult to put on.
Ensure the zip elastic panel is fully open. Try wearing thinner riding socks. If the issue persists after several uses, the boots may require a break-in period.
Water ingress during wet rides.
While designed for general use, these boots are not fully waterproof. For heavy rain, consider using waterproof over-boots. Ensure all zippers and closures are secured.
Reduced grip on the motorcycle.
The smooth heel cup is designed for adherence. Ensure the heel cup and the motorcycle's frame are clean and free from excessive dirt or lubricant which can reduce friction.
Shin plate feels uncomfortable.
The shin plate is fixed for protection. Ensure you are wearing the correct size boots. A break-in period may help the plate conform better to your leg.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: The Sidi Performer boots are designed for immediate use. Ensure the zip elastic panel is fully unzipped before attempting to put them on. Once on, zip up the panel for a snug fit. Adjust the fit by ensuring your foot is comfortably seated within the boot and the heel cup makes good contact. The replaceable slider and shift pad are pre-installed.
Compatibility: These boots are compatible with most motorcycle riding gear. They are designed to fit comfortably under most riding pants or over thinner pant legs. Ensure the size is appropriate for your foot and riding sock preference.
Care: To clean the boots, use a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the Technomicro microfiber and polyurethane components. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the materials. For the interior lining, allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Regularly check the condition of the replaceable sliders and shift pad, replacing them when significantly worn to maintain protection.
