Women's shoes and motorcycle trainers

A slimmer shape to fit the female foot

A women's motorcycle shoe is built on a last that is narrower, with a thinner heel and less volume over the instep: the foot does not float, which prevents it from slipping on the footpeg or twisting when pressing down on the ground. The Furygan Angie and Lady, the Ixon Gambler and Ranker, the Bering Jag or the Helstons Maya, which combines leather and a very abrasion-resistant Armalith fabric, follow the style of an urban sneaker: low or mid-top, classic lacing, and sober colours. Once you arrive, you can keep the same pair for the office or a walk.

Shells, heel cups and soles: what protects the foot

Under its sneaker appearance, the motorcycle shoe conceals real protections. Ankle cups, often made of D3O in the Furygan Lady and Angie models, absorb shocks to the ankle; a rigid heel cup supports the heel and a reinforced toe cap protects the toes. The sole, rigid in width, resists crushing and twisting, while maintaining good grip on wet roads. A reinforcement on the top of the left foot absorbs the friction of the gear lever. Waterproof versions, like the Furygan Lady Waterproof, the Ixon Ranker or the Sidi Nucleus in Gore-Tex, add a membrane.

The EN 13634 marking and its four levels

Motorcycle shoes are certified to the EN 13634 standard, with the current version dating back to 2017. The pictogram sewn inside provides four indications, each at level one or two: shaft height, abrasion resistance, cut resistance, and transverse rigidity. For height, level one corresponds to a shoe that covers the ankle, while level two refers to a boot that goes up to the shin: a motorcycle sneaker thus falls under the first. In terms of abrasion, level two requires that the sole and the front withstand friction for a significantly longer time before being pierced.

Frequently asked questions

How to choose the right size for women's motorcycle sneakers?

Try on the shoe at the end of the day, with the socks worn while riding. The heel should not lift when walking, and the toes should have a little space to avoid discomfort on long trips.

Do women's motorcycle sneakers come in small sizes?

Women's models generally start lower than men's models on the size chart. A unisex shoe that is too wide can cause the foot to float, which is why a feminine shape is important for small sizes.

Can you ride in summer with motorcycle sneakers?

Yes, ventilated versions, with mesh or perforated uppers, allow air circulation while keeping their cups and reinforced sole. They are preferred over city sneakers, which offer no ankle protection in case of a fall.

Is a motorcycle sneaker enough for long road trips?

It protects the ankle and foot, but a taller boot also covers the shin and provides more support for the joint. For long rides, many female riders alternate between a sneaker for the city and a boot for the road.

How to maintain leather and fabric motorcycle sneakers?

Brush off the mud once dry, clean the leather with mild soap, then nourish it with a balm. The fabric gets a waterproofing spray, and the pair should be air-dried, never against a radiator.
