Leatt has released their updated 2023 ‘Moto Enduro’ off-road boot range with new colours across the five-model range including new Jonny Walker special editions.

Leatt’s rebooted (ahem!) off-road boot range for the new season include some updated colourways across the five models – 5.5, 4.5 and 3.5 with enduro and moto versions of the 5.5 and 4.5 boots.

The 5.5 Flexlock Enduro and 4.5 Enduro models bring comfort and protection in equal measure in two different price brackets. The premium 5.5 model additionally has the JW22 Jonny Walker edition, developed by the man himself. 

We’ve taken a look at the two enduro versions (enduro sole as opposed to gripless, MX-style), their techncial details and highlighted some of Leatt’s design innovations for protecting your feet, ankles and knees while riding off-road.

Leatt enduro boot technical highlights:

• Flexlock system provides adjustable boot flex and locks out ankle movement (5.5 model)
• Slidelock system auto-locking, one-way, sliding closure that seals around your knee pads or braces
• Aluminum buckle with an over-locking function
• Buckle protection prevents lower buckle getting caught and unclipping while riding
• 35% force to the knee reduction
• 37% ankle force reduction
• Impact foam in the ankle area absorbs energy, heal grip inside reduces internal slip
• Low profile toe box
• Grippy, rubber inside panels to hold bike
• Enduro pattern sole for grip
• Sole assembly is CE certified, has a steel shank, extended foot-peg riding zone, dual hardness construction to reduce wear

Leatt 5.5 Enduro boot

Built with comfort high on the agenda with a particular attention to accommodate wider feet also, the boot closure uses Leatt’s ‘SlideLock’ system, an auto-locking, one way sliding closure for better seal at top of the boot. Forged aluminium buckles with an over-lock system have a stainless steel base.

Leatt’s ‘FlexLock’ is an adjustable lower boot flex system foradaptable to your foot/ankle/leg size for personal preference. It locksout the side-ward ankle movement to reduce forces up to 37% they claim.

They also say the system reduces up to 35% of forces to the knee with both figures attained when compared to the market leader and most high-end boots.

Protection against foot squashing and impacts starts with the toe box which has a low-profile shaping for easy gear shifting. Your ankles are protected and kept comfortable thanks to 3D-shaped impact foam on the inside. The inner liner has a breathable mesh with anti-slip area to reduce heel lift.

On the outside, your hold of the bike while you ride comes from grippy inside boot panels which are flat and grippy against the frame rails.

Aside from the enduro pattern sole offering for grip when your foot is down in the dirt, the overall foot area design aids stability when riding on your toes, has a two different “zones” to reduce excessive wear from the footpeg teeth, has an extended riding zone for arch and on the toes foot position and an all-important steel shank reinforces the bottom and is CE certified.

Cost: $449.99 / €459.00

Leatt 4.5 Enduro boot

For around 100 bucks less, the 4.5 model offers an almost identical spec to the 5.5 but without the Flex-lock system.

Comfort is high on the agenda along with protection and the 4.5 are also designed to accommodate wider feet comfortably. The boot closure uses Leatt’s ‘SlideLock’ system, an auto-locking, one way sliding closure for better seal at top of the boot. Forged aluminium buckles with an over-lock system have a stainless steel base.
