Clear recommendation to buy

Hello Daytona, I relied on recommendations from friends when I first started out on my motorcycle, and when it came to boots it was "only Daytona". That was almost 20 years ago now, and the brand has remained the same :-) A clear purchase recommendation on my part! Best regards, Barbara Horn

Stories with daytona®

I thought I didn't need a Daytona. Wrong thought.

I have yet to Daytona experience, because until now I thought that most motorcycle boots are equally good. Unfortunately, I had to be taught otherwise ... I had a fall and broke the metatarsal of the little toe. Am now convinced that I would not have suffered this fracture with a better (eg a Daytona) boots. Therefore, I have now bought a Tourer (Road Star) - but a picture does not yet exist - and would be extremely happy about a Shorty.

Nothing presses, nothing pinches, driving is fun

I had these Daytona boots custom made myself at Daytona in late 2022. What a difference from the products off the shelf. Nothing presses, nothing pinches and the zipper closes without effort. This makes driving on the race track fun again. Many thanks to Daytona.

Always with Daytona

That was in 2006 at the "slurry pump meeting". Father and son, logically with Daytonas.

Well protected with Daytona

I have the racing boot with the carbon inner shoe. This has already saved me once from a serious injury. I came during a fall on the race track with the foot in the rim behind. I think with almost any other shoe I would have suffered serious injuries. With that of the Daytona nothing. In addition, I had the Daytona Arrow Sport GTX now 10 years, an absolutely awesome half boot. Unfortunately also broken after a fall, so that a repair is no longer worthwhile. Since I have very thick calves, I always have difficulty fitting motorcycle boots to get.

daytona

Satisfied at all times

The picture was taken on the tour "Grandes Alpes" with lighter Daytona boots. On the return trip through Switzerland, it rained and the boots have proven excellent that they are waterproof! Since my wife (She rides the red GS) and I want to be in the future even more often on longer tours, I have treated me a few days ago additionally a pair of "Travel Star GTX" and assume that I will also be satisfied with these boots at any time!

I thank my guardian angel and the people of Daytona

On vacation in Greece, I was on the road with a borrowed, not very familiar and also a little too heavy machine. In the process, I slipped off the path and grazed along a wall. Without those perfect boots, I would quite likely have suffered injuries and pain to my legs. Maybe bruises as well. I thank my guardian angel and the folks at Daytona who design good protective gear. This left me with the courage to get back on the bike because I experienced that things can end smoothly. Even more, I could laugh heartily when the shock subsided and I saw that neither I nor the machine had suffered any damage.

Here's to another 10 years of Daytona

For 10 years I now drive the Daytona Road Star GTX. Since I am off-road touring now increasingly on the road I have since short changed to the Trans Open GTX boots. On another 10 years with Daytona. The picture was taken on the Romania tour 2020. 60% offroad and here I realized that I needed an offroad boot.

The best I've ever had.

My Daytona Burdits I have since 2017 and the have 90,000 km on the shoe and have come around in all of Europe. In Tuscany flooded in torrential rain, the boots full of water. Poured out and dried overnight in the hotel with the hair dryer. Perfectly dry the next day. These boots are the best I've ever had. They have never let me down. And you can ride horses with them too . :):):)

After 20 years still waterproof and perfect

Dear Daytona team, After over 20 years of riding the Evo Sports GTX - always the same pair - I recently treated myself to an upgrade to the Security Evo. I'm thrilled with how well the Evo Sports, despite not receiving any maintenance - has held up over the years. It is still waterproof, fits perfectly, and has only visual flaws. Velcro and zippers are all intact, sliders in place, basically it wouldn't have needed new boots at all. I wrote a short text about it on my blog www.motorprosa.com. See https://www.motorprosa.com/neue-stiefel-daytona-security-evo-g3/ Excited to see what I will experience with the new boots over the next 20 (or more?) years. Congratulations on your first-class products, and many greetings from South Tyrol! Jürgen

With the different widths I have found the perfect size for me

In 1991 I bought a SR 500. It was my first new motorcycle that I afforded. Along with it came a pair of new boots from Daytona. In the three decades I have ridden a wide variety of machines and covered a lot of miles in Europe and the USA. Only the boots have remained the same. But now I'm going into the new season with brand new "Road Star GTX". Super that you offer them in different widths. So I have found the perfect size for me quickly. The photo should have been taken in 2017 on the way to the Susten Pass.

Nothing but Daytona, since 1988

I have been riding motorcycles since 1988 and have not had boots from any other manufacturer on my feet. Daytona is one of the few manufacturers that make motorcycle boots in size 50.

The best boots I have ever come across

I do not even know how long I have the already, in any case so long that these are no longer manufactured. But there is now the successor! Yes, my story began on 27.Dec '21: Oops, now I fell down and my ankle was broken. The full program was announced, surgery, pain and of course much, much swelling ☹ But my only thought was my moped and my associated Daytonas. Hopefully they will fit, hopefully my foot will go back in. And indeed 8 weeks after the surgery.... schwubdich... Bärbel in the basement and tried. I took several photos during this time but : "Hochlagern, you said". found the funniest! : ) Long story short, the fact is: the Daytona are the best boots that I have ever run across for motorcycling!!! For driving Ideal and when drinking coffee like Dappn (slippers). Please keep up the good work!!! With kind regards Bärbel

daytona

I love them

Something always soaks through: Suit, gloves, cell phone - but the Daytona shoes always keep tight! I love them. Daytona was recommended to me at the time as the best brand for motorcyclists in the store. Now I'm looking at shoes for the supersport: it turns out, Daytona is again the recommendation of all. Only thing I do not understand: why are there no GTX inner shoes for the best 2 shoes? Wanted to buy me the Security G3, now it will probably "only" a Voltex GTX.

daytona

Thank you for the M-Star GTX

In May 2022 I let my son persuade me to buy a R 1200 GS, it was already lowered, but in Slovenia I laid under it in a parking lot. It was missing 2 cm on the gravel parking lot to avoid this. Due to this unpleasant event I had two options, sell vehicle or Daytona! I decided to test M-Star GTX. The test resulted, keep motorcycle and drive this vehicle only with these boots. Have since then a super sense of security on a super motorcycle. Thanks to Daytona for this opportunity.

daytona

We are super satisfied with the motorcycle boots

They offer the perfect combination of protection, comfort and style. The material is very high quality and durable. The boots are also waterproof, which means that we stay dry even when riding in the rain. Another big plus is the sole of the boots. It is slip resistant and provides good traction on wet or slippery surfaces. This is very important since we often ride on different road conditions. Motorcycle boots are one of the most important pieces of equipment for every enthusiastic biker, for every biker, so they must be perfect! And that is the case with daytona.

100,000 km, and still waterproof

Once Daytona, just more Daytona.

No matter how many motorcycle boots I still need in the life, it will be guaranteed DAYTONAs

After I had bought new Travel Star GTX boots, I have it but not brought over the heart to dispose of the old. These were me after 21 years and almost 90,000 km (including 11,500 very coarse km in Central America) but grown very close to my heart and actually still quite good - only some seams had opened. Did they then but sent to Eggenfelden for repair and got them back after a few days repaired at a very fair price and on the finest gewienert again. Do not look like new, but still after all these years very respectable and technically fully intact. I am thrilled!

daytona

Very satisfied

Hello Daytona Team, I have been riding motorcycles for about 35 years. My first boots were from Daytona. They lasted about 12 years. At that time, however, I did not know that they can be restored with you. After a very short detour to another manufacturer with, which I had no joy, I bought some again. These were provided after about 10 years by you with a new sole. With those I am still very satisfied on the road. Thank you

Best Service Ever

Dear Daytona team, so about quality, workmanship and safety has already been written so much, better I thought, it no longer goes. But now you have surpassed everything that has gone before. I had sent last week because of the new soling of my Spirit GTX 2 e-mails and got an immediate response with 3 possible solings. On Monday evening I sent the boots packed via DHL, on Thursday, same week, I get the info, the boots are on the way to me ... and today, Friday, same week the package arrived, can you do magic?, YES . Best Service Ever, that toppt not even the local cobbler and the result conjures a big smile on my face. Great praise and many thanks for it, I think must also necessarily times be said and written, because you can no longer find so.

daytona

The boots leave a good impression even on the Baltic Sea beach

What a super service

After 20 years of Roadstar GTX my boots were a bit affected. Have you sent last week for repair. After a week you came back and look like new. Is this a super service. Have had the shift reinforcements redone. Best service here. THANKS

Fits like a second skin

Am now 42 years on the road with the two-wheeler, bought me 3 years ago my third pair of Daytona. Do not want anything else. And yes, I'm coming soon in Eggenfelden by. Since I bring my second pair to resole. Because Daytona fits like a second skin.

daytona

35 years old

My Daytonas are now about 35 years old. In addition in red. I think they don't exist like that anymore. Unfortunately, the leather is no longer so good. That's why I don't wear them anymore. But I do not give them away.

Many beautiful tours with Daytona

With Daytona motorcycle boots we have already experienced many beautiful tours with our bikes. They are a durable companion in any motorcycle situation.

Newly in love and on the road with Daytonas

I was in June with my new girlfriend hot in love with Lake Garda motorcycle vacation, and although we knew each other then just 4 weeks, she made the 1200 km in 4 days easily with. The Daytona boots have certainly contributed to the fact that we could chill in Merano so casually in the wooden hammock. The boots were later also tested for waterproofness during a river crossing. Thanks to inner shoe everything no problem. XD Moritz

We are so looking forward to it

Unfortunately (still) no motorcycle season ... boots there, now it's time to wait for spring so they can do their job ... we love them already and look forward to beautiful rides with our "new".

Daytona, again and again

Racing is dangerous, everyone knows that. That's why I've always trusted Daytona Security Evo. After various falls, Roy is now allowed to wear the boots in the showroom. Greetings, Robert

Daytona, again and again

This year the Motherroad was driven and my Daytona have not let me down. Absolutely great wearing comfort. Again and again.

They also make the large sizes

One of the manufacturers of motorcycle boots with a shoe size over 48, so I have only had boots from FreyDaytona.

Top boots in any weather

On we go. Ready to go with freshly cleaned Daytona boots. The rain can come quietly, I'm well equipped with clothes and boots. Better, of course, when the sun comes, even then the boots do a top job.

daytona

Absolutely top

Hello, for years my absolute favorite boots, even when it gets dirty and wet. Absolutely waterproof, speak from personal experience. Motorcycle dug in when driving through water, so first dismantle the case and bring it ashore, umpteen times back and forth through the water, remained absolutely dry :-) Disadvantage of my off-road footrests is that the soles wear out faster, but just the days again taken the repair service of Daytona and have them resoled. Greetings Ritchy

Still top after 150,000 km

Moin, I bought myself a pair of Daytona boots in 2010. I've driven so far about 150,000 km with it. Meanwhile, the soles are pretty worn, but the boots are still top! Therefore, I have now sent to Daytona for resole. The price I was quoted is fully acceptable. Hartmut Seeger

Daytona has exceeded all expectations

Originally I bought the Daytona Evo Sports only for the race track, but in the meantime they are also permanently established as boots for all tours. My other boots, of Italian origin, are now in the basement. With regard to repairs, all expectations - on the girlfriend's boots - were exceeded by far, we have never experienced such a fast and very good service before - many thanks for that, to the company and their employees!

Feet dry, rest wet

2019 Lake Garda tour, shower every evening because wet from the inside out, my feet were always dry in the 30-year-old Road Star GTX! I think I'll give the boots an overhaul at your place soon. Left to greet Clint

daytona

Others I would not even try on

Bought Daytona Road GTX in 1995, still dry feet today in 2022 in the worst weather (heavy thunderstorm at Wörthersee with ping pong ball-sized hail and blocked roads). The shoes still look like they came from the shop, except for the gearshift reinforcement that has crumbled over the years. Apart from Daytona, I wouldn't even try on any other shoe. I bought Daytona shoes for my son in the photo next to me. He too had dry feet. Thank you for this outstanding quality.

Continuous rain. Feet dry.

The tour was from Salzgitter to Templin to the "Bud Spencer & Terence Hill Festival". On the way there it had only rained, but thanks to the Daytona boots my feet stayed dry. Super boots, thanks to you. Greetings Dirk

By helicopter to the emergency room. But the feet remained intact.

Hello, I would like to tell you about my crash during the practice for this year's Spa 6 Hours. In the middle of the Blanchimont bend, the rider in front of me decided, to my surprise, to close his throttle. As I could not avoid him sufficiently in 5th gear at 270 km/h, my front wheel touched his rear wheel. As a result, I took off, hit the asphalt several times and finally landed in the gravel. I was taken to the emergency room by helicopter with a shattered hip, broken neck vertebrae and a broken shoulder. After the necessary operation, the fractures and the countless bruises are slowly healing. Only my feet have been spared any damage, which makes my rehab much easier! I wonder if that was due to my Daytona Security EVO boots. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! Felix

Four strangers meet - all with daytona

Dear Daytona team, what a coincidence. Last week, four motorcyclists met by chance at a viewpoint near Volterra in Tuscany. A closer look reveals that they are all wearing the same boots. That must have something to do with the quality. Keep up the good work! Christian Schnell

What a repair service. I'm glad we still have companies like this in Germany.

Dear ladies and gentlemen, dear Daytona team! Last Saturday I sent my EVO Sports GTX motorbike boots in for repair for the first time after 11 years and approx. 80,000 km, as both soles, grinders and shift reinforcements on the left had become very worn over the years. As the repair time on their homepage was stated to be between 2 and 4 weeks, I was worried that the job might not be completed in time for my holiday in Sardinia at the end of September. I therefore made a note of this on the repair order.
Well, what can I say......I am more than thrilled. The boots came back after less than a week. The repair was carried out to my complete satisfaction. Although I had of course sent a clean boot, they came back almost as new and shiny. The material quality of the replaced parts and the cobbler's workmanship are, in my opinion, absolutely top class. The amount of the enclosed invoice was just under 142 €, which is more than justified and absolutely fair for this very good work and great service to the customer.
Please pass on my thanks to your employee who repaired my boots for this good work.
I am glad that we still have companies like you in Germany. It's still really "Made in Germany".
Please continue to be so successful. Motorcyclists all over the world appreciate this and will thank you for it.
Daytona...the Best. Once Daytona, always Daytona. Many thanks and best regards from Friedberg, Gert Baltrusch.

Only the feet warm and dry

On the way back from Italy, I was surprised by cold, including rain and snow, shortly before the Furkapass. So I put on all the clothes I could find in my luggage, including thick socks. I still froze, but my feet stayed warm and dry thanks to the Daytona Road GTX.

daytona

Very comfortable boot with GORE-TEX material – i like this!

It keeps me warm during spring and fall season, and dry in unexpected raining conditions! Good grip on the sole and extra protected section at the shifter position. Easy entry in case of a long zipper and additional adjustment options at the calf side for optimal fitting or needed extra space for inserting my pants. Also the quality of this boot is really outstanding. My boot is from 2015! Nearly 7 Years old and it’s looking like a brand new one. Fortunately I have no experiences about the behavior in accidents, but the shaft protection looks good. I highly recommend my boot and it fits great to the rest of my leather clothes. 10 of 10 points.

These boots saved my foot

daytona – it doesn't get any better than this

As you may not be able to see, I always wear my Spirit GTX. I've had the boots since 2016, the sole was renewed once and the pad on top (which is basically not possible with many other manufacturers) and what can I write, my second pair (I don't want to name the manufacturer) is already slowly gathering dust in the cupboard because my foot simply and always cries out for the Daytona's. I have a custom insole in the boot and it is simply perfect. I have an individual insole in the boot and it's just perfect. In my opinion, the boot can only replace Daytona, so maybe I'll be lucky :) My overall rating: the perfect boot for me, in my opinion it couldn't be better, and it has been for years and more than 100,000 kilometres. THANKS
Robert Kullmann, Germany
