Product overview

About motorcycle touring boots

Touring boots favour comfort and ease of use: a mid-to-tall shaft, a side zip with a hook-and-loop flap, a cushioned footbed and a grippy rubber sole for walking off the bike.

Membranes, reflective details and protective inserts are possible project options; none is claimed without testing.

OEM: your design

Send your design; we match shaft height, closure and sole.

ODM: developed with you

Share references; we propose materials, closure and sole.

Branding without new tooling

  • Heel branding. Printed, embroidered, embossed or rubber-badge branding on the heel counter or tab.
  • Insole printing. Logo printed or hot-stamped on the sock liner.
  • Heat-transfer branding. Printed transfers applied with heat; good for multi-colour logos on textiles.
  • Custom shoeboxes. Printed boxes to your artwork; minimums set by the box printer.
  • Hangtags. Printed swing tags attached to the pair.
  • Barcode labels. EAN/UPC labels on boxes or polybags, from codes the buyer supplies.
  • Carton markings. Shipping marks, size breakdown and destination printed or labelled on export cartons.

Branding that needs tooling

  • Embossed logos. Heat and pressure with a metal die raise the logo on leather or synthetic.
  • Rubber, TPU or metal badges. Moulded or cast badges need a mould or die per design.

Custom lasts, outsole moulds, cutting dies and branding tools may add tooling costs and raise minimum quantities. They are quoted separately before you commit.

Sizing and specifications

Sizing and technical specifications

Size conversions are approximate and vary by last and brand; they are not a production grading chart, and your own brand size chart replaces them if you have one. Technical measurements are set on your last and samples, recorded on the approved sample and controlled in bulk.

Shaft circumference matters for fit over riding trousers; checked on wearers.

Size charts: Men's sizes, Women's sizes

Men's sizes

Typical men's range EU 39–47; smaller or larger sizes on request where the last allows.

Testing and compliance

Frameworks relevant to this style. Obligations depend on where and how the product is sold, and the brand placing it on the market carries them. General information, not legal advice.

  • Motorcycle footwear: EN 13634 under the EU PPE Regulation (EU) 2016/425Product-specific conformity

    Footwear sold in the EU as protective equipment for motorcycle riders must be type-examined by a notified body against EN 13634 (impact abrasion, cut resistance, transverse rigidity and related tests) before any protective claim or CE marking. We do not claim this for any style; it is a project in its own right, planned with the buyer.

  • EU REACH restrictions (Annex XVII)Market obligation

    Restricts chemicals in articles sold in the EU, including chromium VI in leather in contact with skin (entry 47, limit 3 mg/kg), certain azo dyes, PAHs in rubber parts and dimethyl fumarate. Leather and component suppliers' test reports are collected per order where a buyer requires them.

  • EU footwear labelling (Directive 94/11/EC)Market obligation

    Footwear sold in the EU must indicate the material of the upper, the lining and sock, and the outsole, using the directive's pictograms or wording. Labels are produced to the buyer's market requirements.

  • EU General Product Safety Regulation (EU) 2023/988Market obligation

    Applies since 13 December 2024 to consumer products placed on the EU market, including traceability information on the product or packaging. The obligations sit with the economic operator placing the product on the market; we supply the production information they need.

  • UK footwear composition labellingMarket obligation

    The UK keeps equivalent requirements for indicating the composition of upper, lining and sock, and outsole on footwear sold to consumers.

  • Physical test methods (ISO footwear methods)Optional test, on request

    Commonly requested tests include whole-shoe upper-to-sole adhesion (ISO 17708), outsole abrasion (ISO 20871), outsole flex resistance (ISO 17707), upper flex resistance (ISO 17694) and colourfastness of footwear components (ISO 17700). Tests are run by external laboratories on request; no results are published until reports exist.

  • Leather chemical testingOptional test, on request

    Chromium VI (EN ISO 17075), formaldehyde and pH testing of leather can be arranged with the tannery or an external lab for buyers who require reports.

Khairay Footwear does not state any certification, approval or test result for this style unless documentation exists for your order.

FAQ

Motorcycle Touring Boots: questions buyers ask

Is this boot water-resistant?

No water-resistance claim is made unless a membrane and construction are tested to an agreed standard.

Are these protective boots?

No protective claim is made. EN 13634 type examination by a notified body is a separate project.

Can the shaft height change?

Yes, shaft height is a design choice.

Can you add reflective details?

Yes, reflective materials can be added as design details without safety claims.

Is the footbed removable?

A removable footbed is an option.

Does any of your motorcycle footwear carry CE marking?

No CE certification or EN 13634 conformity is claimed. Protective footwear requires notified-body type examination, which can be planned with you as part of a project.

What information do you need for a motorcycle footwear quotation?

Design or references, materials, closures and components, size range, quantities, destination market and whether protective testing is required.

Can we submit our own design?

Yes, with or without choosing one of these reference styles.
