Alpinestars Supertech K FIA 8877-2022 Karting shoe

Alpinestars Supertech K FIA 8877-2022 Karting shoe is designed for karting pilots who demand maximum performance, comfort and control. This latest generation karting shoe features a fully knitted upper construction that seamlessly conforms to the shape of the foot. This provides an exceptionally snug fit without pressure points, greatly improving cockpit comfort and significantly reducing fatigue during long heats.

For optimal stability, the Supertech K is equipped with an injected TPU heel cap, which provides a firm heel lock, allowing extremely precise steering and braking control. The molded midsole provides extra cushioning without losing stability, while the memory foam heel padding absorbs vibrations and prevents unwanted discomfort during intensive riding.

The ultra-thin rubber outsole delivers a direct and responsive pedal feel, essential for peak performance and quick reactions in technically demanding turns. In addition, the shoes come with stretch laces, allowing you to create a secure, elastic fit without having to tie or untie traditional laces.

This version in Cyan Fluo Yellow combines high-performance technology with a striking, sporty color combination that maximizes your visibility on the track. The blend of cyan and fluorescent yellow creates a unique racing look and helps you stand out immediately, both indoor and outdoors.

Thanks to strategic ventilation zones, the shoe maintains excellent breathability, keeping your feet cool and comfortable even during intense sessions. The combination of laces and Velcro closure provides a stable, precise fit that remains consistent during every ride.

Fully FIA 8877-2022 homologated, the Supertech K meets the strictest safety standards within karting and is suitable for all levels of competition.
