Michael van der Mark Racing Boots Team Colors, EU 36 to 46
These race boots take their look from the boots Michael van der Mark wore with BMW in the 2023 WSBK season. The colors are black and red. See the full design on the Van der Mark red moto boots
page.
Every boot uses 1.2-1.3 mm cowhide. Protectors cover the ankle and the shin. Extra layers guard the heel and toe, and you can swap the toe sliders when they wear. A YKK coil zip closes each boot. A leather shifter pad shields the gear-change area, and the rubber sole grips on oily ground.
Sizes run EU 36 to 46 (US 4.5 to 12) in a standard fit. The boots are not cut to custom measurements. Each pair is made to order.
Protection and Sizing
Protection - ankle and shin protectors, a reinforced heel and toe, toe sliders you can replace and a shifter pad on the gear-change side.
Sole - a rubber sole that resists slips and oil, with grip zones for track and road.
Sizing - EU 36 to 46 (US 4.5 to 12), standard fit. Measure your foot length and check the size chart first.

The boots take their look from 2023, when Michael van der Mark raced for BMW in WSBK. The main colors are black and red. Photos on the product page show the boot from more than one side, so you can see where each color sits. The same boot is offered for men and women. Each pair is cut and hand-stitched after you order, so check the photos and your size first.
The boots run EU 36 to 46, which is US 4.5 to 12. They come in a standard fit only, with no custom size. Measure the length of your foot in centimeters. Then compare it with the size chart, not your street shoe size. Race boots sit close around the ankle and heel, so a snug fit is normal. The how-to-measure guide shows how to take your numbers.
Each boot has protectors at the ankle and the shin. The heel and the toe are reinforced with extra layers. Toe sliders sit on the outside of the foot, and they can be replaced once they wear thin. A leather shifter pad on the gear-change side takes the rub from the lever. The rubber sole resists slips and oil, and a YKK coil zip closes the boot.
Yes. The rubber sole has grip zones for both road and track, and it resists oil on the ground. The YKK coil zip makes the boots quick to put on and take off. They pair with a race suit on track or with leather pants on the road. Swap the toe sliders when they wear, and wipe the leather clean after each ride. The leather care instructions explain how to keep the cowhide soft.
