The TCX Dartwood’s form is reminiscent of popular sneakers form the world of skateboarding, but it presents itself with an all-over more mature and classy look. You would never know it, but this well-executed boot is kitted out with some impressive and modern features, delivering style and protection in equal measure.

Ever-popular motorcycle footwear brand TCX have introduced their ZPLATE technology across various styles in their 2021 offering, the Dartwood included. This addition is essentially a shank within the midsole itself that aids flexibility to give the boot a natural flex more akin to your every day casual footwear. This shank not only achieves this natural flexibility, but it provides transverse rigidity to protect your feet from all directions should you run into trouble while on your bike.

The Dartwood also incorporates a Groundtrax outer sole. This sole is made from a highly wear-resistant, dirt-repelling rubber compound and features carefully arranged lugs and grooves that will give you ample traction on both your footpegs and the ground. The underside even includes a dedicated gear selector tread to keep those downshifts precise.

In the safety department, the Dartwood is well reinforced and protected. The Malleolus area features newly developed low profile inserts from D3O that have ‘Non-Newtonian’ characteristics. This means that the molecules within the armour flow freely in their standard form, but their viscosity can change to become more solid under force. In English: the Dartwood is super comfortable to wear but is set up to take an impact and keep you safe!
