Sizing Information
Choose a men’s or women’s boot size using the Setup Size Conversion Chart. SetUp boots are sized very similarly to Sidi boots, so if you have experience with Sidi sizing we suggest you buy the same size.
Our Two Cents
The Gran Prix H20 boot has been discontinued for the ‘07 season and we were able to buy the remaining stock on closeout. It’s been a good seller and we’ve had good feedback since its introduction in the US market about two seasons back. It is a waterproof sport/street design with protective features in all the right areas (see list above). To make the boot comfortable for street riding, the soles are slightly more substantial than racing boots, so they provide some cushion and support (rather than being a thin hard rubber). The closure zipper is well made and the Velcro closure over the zipper makes them very secure. Like other Italian designs, this boot is made of a synthetic leather. Sidi and Alpinestars use Lorica brand material, but this boot uses a similar non-branded material… again, to keep the cost down. To me, the look and feel is identical. This boot uses a “Tepor” lining (similar product as Gore-Tex) to provide the waterproof feature. This is the same brand material used in Sidi waterproof boots (no good generic waterproof lining materials I guess :).
