u201cGaerne is putting new horsepower on the groundu201d they tell us with the launch of the new Gaerne SG.22 off-road boot, the evolution of the widely used SG.12 model.

60 years of expertise is behind the new boot research and development process which they say has created a combination of u201cMade in Italy craftsmanship with cutting-edge materials and technical solutionsu201d.

Gaerne say that every component and detail of the new SG.22 has been fine-tuned including a new, 3D Main Body Toe Box which adopts a three-dimensional construction. This new design brings a reduction in the height they say, between the sole and the top, effectively under the gearshift, increasing the speed and ease of shifting gears.

 

Gaerne SG22 Boot features:

Improve geometry mimics ankle movement

The geometry of the boot ankle mechanism has also been modified they explain to allow the boot to better copy ankle movement. The goal of the Gaerne technicians was to improve ergonomics without sacrificing safety.

Dual Stage Pivot System 1.0

Gaerneu2019s u201cDual Stage Pivot System 1.0u201d protects the ankle with two switches which limit hyperextension, hyperflexion, and lateral movements.

The front shin plate

The front shin plate also has two air vents channelling fresh air through 3D channels designed to u201ccreate cavities capable of facilitating the evacuation of humidity and the dissipation of heatu201d.

injected memory foam

Internally, the injected memory foam has also been re-engineered to adopt the shape of the ankle better, stabilising the whole foot and allowing the foot to become one with the boot.

Inner Grip Guard 1.0

As youu2019d expect, the boot also houses an inner Grip Guard 1.0 rubber element with a compound developed with professional riders to improve protection and the u201ccoefficient of frictionu201d for better riding feel.

New sole

The sole of the new SG.22 features dual density inserts to u201cguarantee grip and durabilityu201d without forgetting traction and cushioning while walking. The Microshock heel also features a compound with different densities designed to provide protection from micro-impact when cornering.

Aluminum Superlight Buckle

Newu2019 Aluminum Superlight Buckleu2019 levers have a fresh painted finish plus the classic adjustment strapu2019s upper locking lever can be adjusted in three positions. Combined with the two positions guaranteed by the new Frontal Shin Guard, that makes it possible to use multiple configurations for better the fit and allow easy insertion knee protectors. 

Donu2019t forget the pinkies

A new Steel Bumper 1.0 toe insert between the sole and the upper has reduced thickness compared to previous models, which maintains the protective capacity but reduces weight.

Finally, the Goodyear Welted construction unique to Gaerne boots allows them to create a solid and resistant build which boasts durability as one of the strengths of every product rolling off the production lines.

Practically this also allows the possibility of resoling the boot without compromising the upper (and therefore giving new life to the boot).

The new SG22 is already on the feet of some big name riders whou2019ve helped development including the 2022 EnduroGP World Champion Andrea Verona, plus the complete Sherco Racing Team and Honda RedMoto Enduro Factory Team.

Gaerne say the biggest feedback from these guys is the decreased weight and reduction in the height between the sole and the gear lever with no need for boots to be u201cbroken inu201d prior to racing.
