Clean design, clear function – for riders who are precise on the road
The XPD XP-MODE in black/white is aimed at motorcyclists who ride sportily but need a boot that works simply in everyday life: stable on the footpeg, comfortable on the shaft, quick to close – and robust enough for many miles. The look is intentionally clean and fits both leather and textile suits. Technically, the XP-MODE remains what XPD promises: “Form Follows Function” – every line has a purpose.
Important to note: the XP-MODE is primarily a street motorcycle boot. It is sufficient for an occasional track day – however, if you ride on the racetrack regularly, the XPD X10-R or XPD XP9-S are the more suitable choices.

What makes the XP-MODE special on the street
Stable grip on the footpeg
The dual-density, vulcanized rubber sole is designed for traction and control. The diagonal heel design helps position the foot cleanly – a noticeable advantage when riding on the balls of the feet, during sporty transitions, and during quick gear shifts.
Protection concept without exaggeration
The XP-MODE is not intended as a no-compromise racing boot, but as a strong street all-rounder with a robust protection package:
-
Injection-molded protections on the outside
-
Molded ankle & shin protectors
-
TPU ankle protection inside (molded)
-
Reinforced toe and heel areas
-
Gear pad protection for frequent shifting
This ensures you are sensibly protected in sporty street use without the boot feeling unnecessarily stiff or heavy.
Ventilation & Comfort for long tours
So you can focus on riding:
-
Vented areas on the upper material
-
Air ventilation pockets on the front plate and heel
-
3D air mesh lining for increased breathability
-
Memory foam padding against pressure points
-
Ortholite® insole: long-lasting cushioning, breathable, and replaceable
