Product Details
The Dainese Fulcrum 4 Gore-Tex boots are men's four-season motorcycle touring boots built for long road journeys and changing weather. A cowhide leather upper is combined with a breathable Gore-Tex ePE membrane, protective ankle construction and a road-focused Groundtrax sole. The result is a tall touring boot designed to balance weather protection, riding control and off-bike comfort.
Touring comfort in changing conditions
Dainese specifies the Gore-Tex ePE membrane to protect against water while allowing moisture vapour to escape. This supports a comfortable internal climate during variable weather without relying on an absolute dryness guarantee. Flexible joint zones help the boot move naturally, while stretch fabric at the calf and two hook-and-loop calf straps provide useful adjustment for different leg shapes.
A zip on the medial, or inner, side makes the boot easier to put on and remove. Inside, the OrthoLite footbed provides long-lasting cushioning and breathability for extended days in the saddle and time spent walking at stops.
Protection and certification
- Certified motorcycle boots to CE Category II and EN 13634
- Rigid protective inserts at the ankles
- Flexible, ergonomic Auxaguard impact protection
- TPU gear-shifter guard to protect the upper at the contact point
- Full-height cowhide leather upper
Auxaguard uses an auxetic-inspired structure designed to flex and adapt with movement. Dainese describes it as lightweight and ventilated, supporting impact protection without making the boot unnecessarily rigid.

To measure, place a tape measure on the floor with its end against a wall. Stand with your heel against the wall and measure to the end of your longest toe. Measure both feet and use the longer result. Motorcycle boots should feel secure at the heel and ankle without pressure at the toes; try them with the socks and riding trousers you plan to wear.
