Daytona SL Pilot GTX is a ladies' short-shaft motorcycle boot with a raised sole designed to improve ground reach. Moto Central currently carries the Black version, giving riders a more compact alternative to Daytona's full-height higher-stance boots.
Higher stance in a short boot
Daytona specifies a cork heel extension with a leather cover, creating an overall heel stand height of approximately 6 cm. The intention is to make the ground easier to reach at a stop without requiring a tall touring upper. The official size range is EU 36 to 41.
The water-repellent full-grain leather upper uses a GORE-TEX More Season membrane. Calf adjustment and elastic heel sections manage fit, while protection includes a padded ankle component, shin coverage, a reinforced inner sole with a galvanised steel inlay and a robust non-slip heeled outsole.
Fit guidance
Make sure the heel remains seated within the raised construction and that the ankle protector lines up correctly. The short upper should close securely without pinching, and the toe box must leave enough movement for normal circulation.
Why buy SL Pilot GTX from Moto Central?
Moto Central keeps this collection specific to the single Black product and its live sizes. The linked ladies', Daytona and wider boot collections allow a useful comparison with standard-height and full-height alternatives.
