Bates Footwear has introduced the “Adrenaline” as part of its new powersports line, offering motorcyclists a new choice in footwear. The Michigan-based shoe manufacturer utilizes premium components and construction to offer a new high performance riding boot that offers equal parts protection and comfort.
Bates Footwear draws on more than 100 years of experience designing and manufacturing everything from military dress shoes to combat-ready tactical boots. Calling on this tradition of quality technical footwear, the Bates Adrenaline offers protection and performance while also providing all-day comfort, on and off the bike. This unique combination makes this the perfect boot for sport touring and adventure riders looking to put in long miles on the bike, without having to change into a different pair of shoes to comfortably walk around.
The Bates Adrenaline is comprised of double stitched waterproof full grain leather and molded TPU to create a balance between protection and comfort. TPU reinforcements are found in the molded heel, shift pad and outer edge, while PORON XRD high-impact foam provides both inner and outer ankle protection. The outsole chassis is comprised of EVA, rubber and an external shank to provide flexibility and stability. The patented molle strap lace restraint allows riders to tuck the laces out of the way of moving parts, while the oil and slip resistant rubber outsole offers firm footing both on and off the bike.
Retail price is $200
