LAST year’s Xtreme boot was very well received by professional riders who used the boot on track in some of the most important championships, as well as by general riders, according to the company.

This year’s Diadora 2008 collection includes the new Xtreme Air, a ventilated summer version of the Xtreme for track use only.

Xtreme Air features the SAS (Safety Ankle Support) exclusive flex system which helps avoid abnormal ankle torsion. Other safety features include internal polyurethane reinforcements, injection-moulded plastic protection, a protective plastic heel insert and injected plastic directly in the leather gear, heel and toe areas.

The upper is in ventilated microfiber and ventilation is through air ventilation pockets. Breathable air-mesh lining, replaceable magnesium slider and three different fastenings – zip and Velcro closure and rear buckle pump ratchet closure – guarantee a perfect fit every time, the company says.

The inside of the boot features soft polymer padding, TPU moulded protection in the ankle area and an antibacterial and replaceable footbed with APS (Air Pump System). The new APS system features exceptional ventilation starting from the centre of the insole. When pressure is applied during walking or riding, the channels within the sole expel air uniformly, permitting air circulation within the boot.

The Xtreme Air also features the new Dual Flex midsole with flexible toe area for elevated gear sensibility, as well as for comfortable walking, and stiff mid/back for secure and stable foot contact with the footrests and controls.

Other characteristics include a triple-density, anti-slip, oil-resistant Skywalk sole, Velcro and zip closures, gear pad protection and rear reflex insert.
The boot is available in white and yellow.
