Alpinestars Karting Shoe – FIA Approved (FIA 8877-2022)

Alpinestars Karting Shoe (FIA-Approved ) is designed for karters looking for the perfect combination of comfort, protection, and performance. Thanks to the latest FIA 8877-2022 homologation, this shoe meets current safety standards for international karting competitions and FIA-approved championships.

The lightweight design is constructed from high-quality materials that ensure optimal ventilation and a snug fit. The flexible rubber sole provides excellent pedal feel and control, while the slanted opening makes it easy to put on and take off and adds extra comfort.

Designed for maximum control

When karting, direct contact with the pedals is essential. That’s why the Alpinestars features a specially designed sole that offers ample flexibility without compromising support. This allows you to maintain maximum control while braking, accelerating, and steering.

The close-fitting design with minimal stitching prevents pressure points and enhances comfort during long training sessions and competitions. The updated closure system ensures a secure fit and a professional look.

Extra protection where needed

The shoe features reinforced protective panels on the heel and sides. These protect against wear caused by cables, chassis components, and fasteners in the kart. As a result, the shoe stays in top condition longer, even with heavy use.
