The Sidi Adventure 2 Gore-Tex Boot is an update and refinement of the original Adventure’s features, taking the boot’s design into the next generation without losing or sacrificing anything that made the original such a staple of adventure riding. With the Adventure 2 you’re still looking at a premium boot around the $500 price point meant for all-weather, hardcore adventure riding. You’re also still getting waterproof, breathable Gore-Tex used throughout, great protection from the support system and dual hinge system, and a secure closure that uses two of Sidi’s reliable cam buckles. The biggest change for the Adventure is that the Gore-Tex liner now extends up the full height of the boot all the way to the top of the gaiter/closure. So you get several additional inches of waterproof coverage, which is nice to have for water crossings and exceptionally wet conditions. Styling also got an update with refined TPU panels on the exterior giving you a more streamlined appearance, less bulk in order to increase mobility, and the same superior level of protection you’d expect from Sidi and the Adventure 2.
