Developed in conjunction with the assistance of Ricky Carmichael, the
new Instinct Boot from Fox is a premium offering which is soon to lead
the pack.
The Instinct has undergone the most extensive product wear testing in
the history of Fox. Six prototypes & hundreds of test boots over
three-years evolved into the Instinct of today, with the final result
being a clear elevation of motocross boot performance. The Instinct
objective was to produce a boot with exceptional ankle support with a
hinge design that keeps a subtle, leather boot feel with instant comfort
& no break-in time. A unique, new buckle utilizes a lever system
with friction enclosure. No pins are used. This buckle is made to last
the life of boot.
Comfort and Support:
Insole: The athletic foot-bed acting as the first stage in Instincts
progressive cushioning system is similar to one that you would find in a
running shoe.
Shank: Imbedded in the Polyurethane mid-sole, the shank design is
perfectly positioned to provide arch support while letting the front of
the foot & boot flex for bike interface & walking comfort.
Mid-sole: The PU (Polyurethane) mid-sole provides amazing step-in
comfort & vibration dampening. The embedded tempered Steel Shank is
encapsulated in the PU material giving the Instinct foot peg arch support
& awesome comfort (Patented Design).
Out sole: Features Fox’s DURATAC rubber compound that disperses
vibrations from the bike, provides amazing grip & outstanding
durability (Lifetime Guarantee).
Buckles:
All new Patented buckle design that utilizes a pivoting clasp system.
By using a spherical locking head, the Instinct buckle works like a
ball & socket joint. The clasp pivots 8 degrees in both directions
allowing for automatic natural alignment of the straps.
Easy to use, smooth operation time & time again.
Buckles move with boot as it flexes.
Interface:
RCI (Ride Control Interface): The entire out-sole &
medial side of the boot is shaped & textured to provide the rider
with unobstructed contact with the bike.
LRC (Low Ride Chassis): Gets the riders foot lower &
closer to the foot peg. Lower toe box provides easier shifting &
better rear brake feel & control.
DURATAC™ rubber compound on the out-sole, burn guard &
hinge cover was engineered exclusively by Fox’s development team. The
goal was to achieve optimal grip with bulletproof durability.
Fluid Movement:
FRE Hinge design (Full Response Engineering): Provides a controlled range of movement allowing effortless linear mobility & incredible lateral stability.
Patented hinge lock-out stops rear motion before hyper extension.
Top of boot gasket creates a secure seal. Velcro was eliminated to offer increased mobility.
Limited Sole Warranty:
The DURATAC™ out-sole carries a limited wear warranty. Consult the Users Manual for warranty details.
