FAQs
Are these boots suitable for all types of motorcycles?
Yes, the Sidi Urbex WP High Boots are designed for general motorcycle use and are certified for riding. Their comfort and protection features make them suitable for various riding styles, including commuting, touring, and casual rides.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart and measure your foot according to the instructions. It is also recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can vary between individuals.
Can I wear these boots in hot weather?
The boots feature a waterproof and breathable membrane, which helps with ventilation. While they are designed for all-weather use, very high temperatures might feel warmer than boots with maximum airflow.
What does EN 13634:2017 certification mean?
This certification is the European standard for protective footwear for motorcyclists. It ensures the boots meet specific requirements for impact protection, abrasion resistance, cut resistance, and overall construction quality for rider safety.
How durable is the synthetic leather?
The premium synthetic leather is chosen for its durability, resistance to abrasion, and ability to provide protection. It is designed to withstand the rigors of motorcycle riding while maintaining a good appearance.
Can the D3O protectors be removed or replaced?
The D3O impact protectors are integrated into the boot for optimal protection and are typically not designed for user removal or replacement.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable on first wear
Wear the boots for short periods indoors to allow them to break in and mold to your feet. The premium synthetic leather and comfort sole are designed to become more flexible with use.
Feet feel wet despite the waterproof claim
Ensure the laces are tied tightly to prevent water ingress from the top opening. Check the internal membrane for any damage (rare). If the issue persists, the boots may have sustained damage or the waterproofing has been compromised.
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace the laces with a durable, non-abrasive set. Ensure replacement laces are of appropriate length and material for footwear.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
The rubber sole is designed for motorcycle footpegs and general walking. For extremely slick surfaces (e.g., wet polished floors), exercise caution. Ensure the sole is free from debris that could affect grip.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent waterproof and breathable performance for all-weather riding.
- Integrated D3O protectors offer superior impact protection.
- Designed for comfort, suitable for all-day wear both on and off the bike.
- Durable construction with premium synthetic leather.
- Certified for motorcycle use (EN 13634:2017).
Cons
- Fit can vary, so trying them on is recommended.
- Synthetic leather may not appeal to those preferring natural materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Fit Adjustment: Lace up the boots to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. Ensure the laces are securely tied.
- Initial Wear: Wear the boots around the house for a short period to acclimate to their feel and structure before a long ride.
Compatibility:
- These boots are certified for motorcycle use (EN 13634:2017) and compatible with standard motorcycle controls (gear shifter, footpegs).
- The rubber sole provides grip suitable for most motorcycle footpegs.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the synthetic leather exterior with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and rinse with a clean damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Waterproofing: The internal membrane is designed for long-lasting waterproofness. After riding in heavy rain or mud, wipe down the exterior. Allow boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to preserve the materials and membrane.
- Laces: Inspect laces regularly for wear and tear. Replace if necessary.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Use boot trees to help maintain shape.
