In this video review, Chris talks through the TCX X-Five.4 GTX boots. Now, here at Motolegends, we can be a bit picky. And we don’t tend to follow the crowd. When it comes to the kind of boots that you can wear for touring and commuting, we usually gravitate towards Daytona. Frankly, we think they make the best, most comfortable and most durable boots that money can buy. But they’re expensive at the point of sale, and so not everybody can stretch to a pair. The problem is that we have not found it easy to source the boot that sits one rung down from a Daytona. There are lots of good, cheapish boots on the market, but we wanted a top quality, leather, Gore-Tex boot that we could offer, with confidence, to those who didn’t want the Daytona. Our first choice was TCX; they make some fantastic, short boots. Their quality is beyond doubt, and their prices always represent good value. But in the UK there wasn’t a TCX that fitted the bill; and so we went direct to the manufacturer in Italy, and we’ve sourced the TCX X-Five.4 GTX boot that we reckon fits the bill. The chassis, as we’ve suggested, is a full-grain leather. There’s concertina padding in the heel and fore-foot for comfort and flexibility. There’s an integrated shift pad, and you get reinforced counters in the heel and toe areas. Closure is by means of a Velcro storm flap and, to make the boots easier to fasten, the zip sits in an elasticated panel. The sole is torsionally very stiff; it is also high grip and oil resistant. This is, in every way, the boot we were looking for. It’s a thumping good and supremely comfortable boot. In the margin, it’s not quite a Daytona, but then that’s reflected in the more than reasonable price. In the UK, the TCX X-Five.4 GTX boot is totally exclusive to Motolegends.
