Description
When Café Racer style meets world-leading waterproof technology – your feet deserve protection backed by 60 years of Italian craftsmanship.
Every morning when you swing a leg over your bike, you need boots that don’t just protect your feet but also express your rider identity. The Gaerne G-Stone Gore-Tex is the perfect answer for those seeking the fusion of vintage aesthetics and cutting-edge waterproof technology – all in a boot handcrafted in Italy since 1962.
Key Features of the Gaerne G-Stone Motorcycle Boots
🌧️ Gore-Tex® Membrane – Absolute Waterproofing, Optimal Breathability
Unlike standard waterproof linings, the Gore-Tex® membrane integrated into the G-Stone features over 9 billion microscopic pores per cm². Each pore is 20,000 times smaller than a water droplet yet 700 times larger than a water vapor molecule – meaning water cannot penetrate, but sweat escapes efficiently. This is why your feet stay dry in heavy rain while remaining comfortable in hot weather.
🇮🇹 Premium Full-Grain Leather – Authentic Vintage Style
The upper is crafted from full-grain cowhide leather – the highest grade leather that retains its natural grain, developing a unique patina character over time. The collar features an additional soft leather padding that enhances aesthetics while hugging your ankle comfortably on long rides.
🛡️ Comprehensive Protection – CE EN 13634:2017 Certified
The G-Stone is equipped with PU malleolus inserts that minimize injury from side impacts. The toe area features an additional PU shifter reinforcement – not only protecting your toes but also improving sensitivity and control when shifting gears. The entire design meets CE certification under European standard EN 13634:2017 and EU regulation 2016/425.
👟 Lug Tread Rubber Sole – Superior Grip on All Surfaces
Gaerne’s exclusive rubber sole with deep lug tread design delivers maximum grip on any surface – from wet roads, oil-slicked gas station floors, to slippery tiles. You can confidently stop anywhere without worrying about losing your footing. The sole is also oil and fuel resistant, ensuring long-lasting durability.
🔒 Triple Closure System – Perfect Customized Fit
The G-Stone utilizes a 3-component closure system: side zip for quick on/off, front laces for fit adjustment, and velcro for secure lockdown. The zip pull is leather-covered to prevent scratching your bike’s paint while riding.
