MTA Distributing Becomes Exclusive Distributor of TCX Boots

MTA Distributing recently announced the addition of TCX Boots full line of premium boots and footwear to its growing powersports catalogs.

Founded in the early 1980s and still headquartered in Montebelluna, Italy, TCX was originally a private label maker for many brands including BMW and Ducati. In fact, TCX still produces collections for the OEMs today. With a mantra of “Focus On Boots” TCX has built a global reputation in the premium motorcycle footwear category by keeping safety, fit and comfort the key elements of that focus.

Today, the extensive feature-packed TCX product line has an ideal “solution” for every riding style: street, sport, touring, adventure, off-road, youth and casual. TCX combines the finest materials with cutting-edge Italian design to provide maximum protection and comfort. The TCX line also benefits from patented proprietary advances like T.C.S. – Torsion Control System, D.F.C. – Double Flex Control System and P.A.F.S. – Precise Air Fit System.

Greg Blackwell, MTA’s president, was equally enthusiastic about adding TCX Boots to the MTA roster. “We’re very familiar with TCX… they have been on our radar for some time,” said Blackwell. “I know that TCX will be very compatible with the brands we currently offer. If I can borrow a phrase, TCX is “Focused on Boots” and MTA will be focused on guiding TCX to the next level throughout United States.”

MTA began distributing TCX products August 1, 2017.
