Street 3 Tex Waterproof is a certified waterproof motorcycle shoe with impermeable T-DRY membrane. It offers the casual look & comfort of a sneaker & is perfect for everyday use. The reinforcing D30® inserts on the ankles, the protectors on the toe & heel & the rubber strap protector guarantee maximum protection. The highly breathable Ortholite® insole with durable cushioning gives the shoe a high level of comfort. Maximum protection is guaranteed by the special Zplate® insert in molded polymer that, thanks to its Z-shape, combines transverse stiffness for maximum safety & longitudinal flexibility. Zplate® allows the shoe to follow all the natural movements of the foot both in the saddle & when walking. At the same time, the technology protects against compression of the shoe in the event of an impact. The upper of the Street 3 WP is made from suede & fabric with reinforced texture. The abrasion-resistant Groundtrax® sole features a structured profile that guarantees maximum grip on any surface.

The ZPLATE shank in the midsole keeps the right flexibility of the shoe, for an optimal riding & walking comfort, ensuring at the same time the transverse rigidity to protect the foot, in case it would be crushed under the vehicle. Groundtrax® outsoles Groundtrax® outsoles are engineered to ensure stability, grip & traction both on the footpegs & once got off the saddle. This is due to the design of lugs & grooves, as well as the choice of the rubber compound, which also maximize the wear-resistance & self-cleaning of the tread. The sole is featured by a dedicated gear shift area, to provide an higher precision during the ride. D3O® inserts In its raw form the D3O® molecules flow freely, thanks to their non-Newtonian nature, allowing the material to be soft & flexible. On impact, the D3O® molecules lock together, absorb & dissipate the energy from impacts, significantly reducing the amount of force that gets transmitted to the body compared to standard materials.
