This mix of boots is for the hardcore adventurer or dualsport rider and each of them boasts extreme protective elements, waterproof breathability, and essentially the gnarliest feature sets in the range of boots we carry. In the range of our top six picks for 2012, you see advanced entry systems like cam-lock buckles, extremely rugged soles, and a laundry list of hard part protectors. These boots must perform in all weather conditions so there is a great deal of technicality that goes into the construction of each of our top ADV boot picks, including Gore-Tex waterproof breathable membranes in many.
