Sidi Vertigo Lei Boots - Tested

The Vertigo Lei sports Sidi's exclusive composite inner and dual-compound outer sole for durability and support.Addressing the growing ranks of female sportbike riders, Sidi's Vertigo Lei (Italian for "she") boots boast all the protective features of the standard Vertigo boot, but with tailoring and fit from a woman's foot mold-not just a downsized men's mold. Constructed mainly from Lorica, the Vertigo Lei sports Sidi's exclusive composite inner and dual-compound outer sole for durability and support. Protective features include the patented Vertebra System that protects the rider's Achilles' tendon area, the three-stage shock-absorbing heel cup, and replaceable nylon shin and thermoplastic ankle protective plates. Fit and comfort is ensured by the Tecno VR adjustable calf system (designed to accommodate and support almost any calf size), a removable inner arch support, perforated Teflon-treated inner liner, an adjustable air vent, and an elastic panel adjacent to the zipper that allows a bind-free zip over the ankle bone and improved fit in that area. The toe shift protector is made from DuPont Techno-polymers for durability and performance in all conditions, and the plastic toe sliders are adjustable and replaceable as well.
