Taurus GTX: SIDI Launches All-New Premium Boot For ADV Riders

The Italian boot maker’s new offering blends dirt protection & long-range comfort.

Published on 03.09.2026

SIDI has unveiled the Taurus GTX, a new adventure‑touring boot that promises all‑weather protection and optimal support for longer journeys in mixed terrain. Inspired by SIDI’s original motocross line, the new boot is designed for ADV riders who like to venture off the beaten path while also looking to maintain all‑day comfort both on and off the bike

At its core, the boot uses a supple microfiber upper reinforced with high‑density TPU in key impact zones. The construction is designed to balance durability with a broken‑in feel, giving riders a supportive chassis without the bulk or stiffness of a full enduro boot. A GORE‑TEX membrane provides breathable, waterproof protection for year‑round riding.

One of the Taurus GTX’s standout features is its 3‑point flexible ankle support system, engineered to stabilize the joint during off-road riding on uneven terrain, while still allowing natural movement. SIDI also integrates this active ankle support to help prevent hyperextension. Early reports from testers note that the Taurus GTX feels less stiff in the ankle than the SIDI Adventure 2, with a wider toe box and softer sole that makes it easier to walk or hike off the bike.

Fit adjustment is handled by dual NUUN 001M dials, an adjustable closure system (similar to BOA) that allows quick, one‑handed tension changes on the move. The design is built to distribute pressure evenly across the top of the foot, reducing hot spots and making it easy to fine‑tune the fit throughout the day. A stretch tibia panel and wide boot opening accommodate a range of calf sizes and simplify entry and exit.

Underfoot, the boot uses SIDI’s Materiis rubber compound sole, built for multi‑surface traction whether you’re on footpegs, dabbing through loose terrain, or pushing the bike. Inside, a streamlined inner profile improves bike connection and riding precision, while replaceable components extend the boot’s service life.

SIDI is positioning the new Taurus GTX as their top‑tier adventure‑touring option for riders who want 100% waterproofing, all-day comfort, and good off-road protection for your typical ADV rides without stepping into full MX‑boot. The Taurus GTX is available in Black, Deep Forest, and Sand Ochre, in sizes 8–12.5 US (41–47 EU). MSRP is $599.99, with a 1‑year warranty in the U.S. and 2‑year coverage internationally.
