The boots run from EU 36 to 46, which is US 4.5 to 12. They come in a standard fit only, with no custom size. Measure your foot length in centimeters. Then compare it with the Size Guide. Do not rely on your sneaker size, since race boots fit closer. If you sit between two sizes, ask through the customer service page before you order.
Protectors sit at the ankle and shin. The heel and toe are made firmer. The toe sliders can be swapped out once they wear down. A leather pad on the left foot covers the area that touches the gear lever. The rubber sole resists slipping and oil on track and road. A YKK zip runs up the side to close the boot.
Race boots should feel snug around the ankle and heel. Your heel should not lift much when you walk. Your toes should touch the front lightly but not curl. The shin part should sit close to the leg without pinching. Wear the socks you ride in when you measure your foot. A close fit helps the protectors stay where they should be.
Wipe off dirt and bugs with a damp cloth after each ride. Let wet boots dry at room temperature, away from heaters. Heat can dry out and crack the leather. Use a leather conditioner now and then to keep the cowhide soft. Store the boots upright in a dry place. For more tips, read the leather care instructions.
