This page is based on data provided by manufacturers on their websites or obtained through other means (customer service, in-store labels, etc.).

I’ve updated my inventory of motorcycle high boots that meet the maximum EN 13634:2222 standard.

I’ve changed the layout to arrange the equipment by price rather than by brand.

I’ve also added various indications to help you make your choice: place of manufacture when known, waterproofness, advertised type (just for info, as for boots no particular cut).

2023 UPDATE: Inventory of the most protective motorcycle high boots (EN 13634 : 2222) in June 2023

This article lists the high motorcycle boots that I found on the manufacturers’ websites, and whose level of protection is at the maximum of the current standard: 2222.

There is a wide variety of styles, most models are unisex but there are at least 2 very feminine models. The first prices are around 100 euros (2 OJ models and the only DXR model at this level which happens to be a women’s high boot).
