OUR MAN Dave Smith has been helping us out with some riding duties recently, and we’ve been kitting him out with some proper protective kit. Like these TCX RT-Race Air Pro boots. They’re TCX’s top-end sporty track boot, and have the full panoply of protection, with specific ankle support system, heel and shin protection, and a dual-compound sole by Michelin, with harder sections to reduce wear and softer areas for better grip and feel. Clever.

First look – TCX RT-Race Air Pro boots

They look really sweet, with magnesium toe and heel sliders, smart contrast stretch panels and external protection. They're also fully vented - just the job for weather like today. They’re not cheap at £299.99, but the spec does back up that price tag a fair bit.

Dave will be wearing these on road and track tests over the coming summer, and will report back on how they do. He's a stickler mind, so if he says they're good, you can take his word for it...

They’re available in black/white and blue/white, in Euro sizes 38-49 (UK 5-14), and there’s also a cheaper non-pro version of the RT-Race boots. More info here.
