Size recommendation: We did the test for you. This motorcycle footwear follows the size chart of regular shoes. Size 44 is size 44. You can assume the size chart is pretty traditional.
German boot manufacturer Daytona guarantees top of the bill motorcycle boots. Handmade, detailed, high-tech and 100% waterproof thanks to the integrated GORE-TEX® membrane.
The Road Star GTX is an all-round performer and is available in both regular and large (wide) versions. This way, there is no chance of not finding the perfect motorcycle boot. You'll have to work particularly hard not to do so within the Daytona range, because every single one of these are top boots that guarantee years of riding pleasure.
Just to be clear: anyone who usually wears normal footwear doesn’t have to go for 'large' here. The wide version has a wider shaft and more space inside. This does not mean that the 'large' leaves double footprints. They are identical in both versions. Anyone who has to make more of an effort to find shoes that fit will benefit from this.
Daytona is therefore more or less synonymous with top quality. The Road Star GTX, with its sturdy cowhide leather, opens almost right up to the sole on both sides. That assures you - despite the high shaft of over 30 centimeters - of a very smooth and quick entry. You close the boot by means of two zippers, finished at the top with a velcro strip. At the back, extra velcro pieces on the calf allow you to fit the Road Star GTX to perfection.
Inside, the well-constructed boot pretty much regulates the climate itself, within the double boot construction. Sweaty feet are therefore not included in the price, although you would expect that from this kind of boot. On the contrary: the Road Star GTX is as comfortable as a slipper and offers about the same freedom of movement, so yes, you can do the last few meters on foot. Well placed accordion pieces on the heel and in front of the ankle emphasize this.
The shins have been given a large protector, just like the ankles. Heel and toes have been extra reinforced and all that doesn't bother you at all inside the boot. Gear shifting reinforcement is of course standard.
Daytona remains true to a number of fixed values: comfort on and off the bike, a long lifespan, pronounced strength and durability in extreme conditions, and the use of top-class materials. Moreover, you can always count on excellent after-sales service from the German manufacturer.
