FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The NUCLEUS GTX series features Gore-Tex technology, which is widely recognized for its waterproof and breathable properties.
Can I use these for walking long distances?
While they are more comfortable than rigid race boots, they are optimized for riding and include protective inserts that may feel firm during extended walking.
How do I secure the laces?
Use the built-in locking mechanism on the laces and tuck the ends into the provided webbing lace holder to keep them out of the way of your bike's controls.
What is the benefit of the D3O ankle protection?
D3O is a non-Newtonian material that is soft and flexible during normal movement but locks together instantly upon impact to absorb energy.
Is the sole replaceable?
No, the Materiis sole is integrated into the shoe construction for maximum durability and should not be replaced.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty getting the desired fit
Loosen the lock lace entirely and reseat your foot, then pull the lace evenly from both sides before securing it in the webbing holder.
Sole feels slippery on wet surfaces
Clean the Materiis sole with a soft brush and water to remove accumulated road oil or mud which can impact traction.
Reflective elements appear dull
Gently wipe the reflective inserts with a microfiber cloth; do not use abrasive materials that could scratch the coating.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, pull the lock laces until the shoe feels snug against the arch of your foot, then slide the lace holder into the webbing loop to secure the tension. Ensure the laces are not wrapped too tightly to avoid cutting off circulation. For care, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove road debris and grime. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that may damage the reflective elements. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to preserve the integrity of the protective materials.
