Fox Head Inc. has only produced a limited quantity of their Instinct Boots. Tousley Motorsports has 1 pair each of Sizes 9 - 13 in mens.
COMFORT/SUPPORT/CONNECTIVITY:
The Instinct objective was to produce a boot with exceptional ankle support with a hinge design that keeps a subtle, leather boot feel with instant comfort & no break-in time.
COMFORTANDSUPPORT:
Five key components work in harmony to give the Instinct instant comfort & support
1. INSOLE: The athletic footbed acting as the first stage in Instincts progressive cushioning system is similar to one that you would find in a running shoe.
2. SHANK: Imbedded in the Polyurethane midsole, the shank design is perfectly positioned to provide arch support while letting the front of the foot & boot flex for bike interface & walking comfort.
3. MIDSOLE: The PU (Polyurethane) midsole provides amazing step-in comfort & vibration dampening. The embedded tempered Steel Shank is encapsulated in the PU material giving the Instinct footpeg arch support & awesome comfort (Patented Design).
4. HEEL: The strategically placed TPU Heel Stabilizer provides heel & arch support.
5. OUTSOLE: Features Fox’s DURATAC rubber compound that disperses vibrations from the bike, provides amazing grip & outstanding durability.
BUCKLES:
-All new Patented buckle design that utilizes a pivoting clasp system.
-By using a spherical locking head, the Instinct buckle works like a ball & socket joint.
The clasp pivots 8 degrees in both directions allowing for automatic natural alignment of the straps.
-Easy to use, smooth operation time & time again.
-Buckles move with boot as it flexes.
INTERFACE:
-RCI(Ride Control Interface) the entire outsole & medial side of the boot is shaped & textured to provide the rider with unobstructed contact with the bike.
-LRC (Low Ride Chassis) gets the riders foot lower & closer to the footpeg. Lower toe box provides easier shifting & better rear brake feel & control.
-DURATAC™ rubber compound on the outsole, burn guard & hinge cover was engineered exclusively by Fox’s development team. The goal was to achieve optimal grip with bulletproof durability.
FLUID MOVEMENT:
-FREHinge design (Full Response Engineering) provides a controlled range of movement allowing effortless linear mobility & incredible lateral stability.
-Patented hinge lock-out stops rear motion before hyper extension.
-Top of boot gasket creates a secure seal. Velcro was eliminated to offer increased mobility.
R&D WEAR TESTING:
-The Instinct has undergone the most extensive product wear testing in the history of Fox.
–Six prototypes & hundreds of test boots over three-years evolved into the Instinct of today.
-RC started initial testing process in January 2009.
-Two Championships & multiple race wins have already been achieved (Barcia East SX Lites & Roczen – MX2 World).
-The final result is a clear elevation of motocross boot performance.
