Sedici Chicane 2 Boots Review: Sporty Commuter Motorcycle Gear

Sedici Chicane 2 Boots Overview

• 🏍️ The Sedici Chicane 2 boots are a taller sport-style boot designed for riders who frequent canyons and could technically be used on the track.
• 💰 Priced at $180, they offer a solid value for a commuter or sport-touring boot, undercutting many competitors.
• 💨 Key updates include revised materials for increased protection, improved ergonomics, and updated aesthetics.

Comfort and Sizing

• 💡 The boots feature extensive perforation in the microfiber construction, making them suitable for summer riding.
• 📏 Sizing ranges from 9 to 13 with no half sizes, but half-size insoles are included to customize the fit.
• 🦶 If between sizes, it's recommended to size up and use the included thicker insole for a perfect fit, as the microfiber will break in about 10%.

Protection Features

• 🛡️ A reinforced toe box includes a replaceable alloy and TPU toe slider for enhanced protection during aggressive riding or slides.
• 🦶 An extra layer of microfiber with double stitching reinforces the toe box area against shifter wear.
• 💨 A TPU outer ankle vent system and an ankle TPU slider on the outside, with internal foam padding, offer protection.
• 💥 A large encasing heel counter provides impact protection and guards against damage if the foot slips off pegs during a crash.

Design and Materials

• ✨ The boots feature sublimated graphics and a powder-coated alloy slider on the side to protect the boot during slides.
• 💨 Perforated bellows at the back and 3D air mesh throughout help manage heat and airflow.
• 🧼 The inside is lined with a brushed microfiber, designed to not hinder bike grip on the medial side.
• 🚀 Entry is via a Velcro and zipper main entry on the side, with a Velcro clasp to secure the zipper flap.

Sole and Track Capability

• ⚙️ The sole has a composite shank for reinforcement and an oil- and slip-resistant material with a grip pattern for controls.
• ⚠️ While suitable for casual track use, for more aggressive track riding, the Corsa 2 boots are recommended for their increased ankle protection and reinforcements.
