It surely cannot be a coincidence that the style of motorcycle shoes with this name leans so remarkably towards the appearance and design of typical American basketball shoes. Harlem Globetrotters, anyone?
The Harlem motorcycle shoes have an exterior made of micro-synth – a synthetic fabric with the look & feel of leather – and an interior that is breathable, antibacterial, quick-dry and high-quality. This combination in an ankle-high motorcycle shoe is a slam dunk and makes us want to get on and drive off.
Which you can, thanks to the reinforced heel, toe and D3O™ ankle cups. That impact protection earned its stripes in a military context and winter sports. It stands out because of the fact that it ‘locks’ free and moving molecules in place, which then absorb a great deal of the impact force, without hindering the normal motion of the foot.
We add the dual compound rubber sole, connecting both ends like some sort of tight line and the only conclusion is that the Harlem motorcycle shoes are an excellent choice for urban use.
The shaft is ankle-high and gentle for your Achilles’ heel. With a subtle reflection, a pull tab and a couple of fun visual accents (look for the wings) these are motorcycle shoes that can effortlessly walk beside your motorcycle as well.
Getting in and out of them is easy, without a zip, but with (elasticated) laces as an important asset.
There is maintenance clothing and then there is clothing maintenance. Good, solid motorcycle clothing is an investment in comfort and personal safety. So invest in its maintenance after your purchase and enjoy your gear for longer.
