R.I.S.C.™ TPU protection is thermoplastic polyurethane incorporated in the outer shell. Protection made of TPU can vary in hardness but has a (semi) hard feel to it in most cases.

TPU is characterised by many properties, including elasticity, transparency and resistance to oil, grease and abrasion.

Other advantages are its injectability similar to TPR and its low-temperature flexibility. It is mostly seen in black as it is less easily to colour than TPR.

First introduced in our MotoGP / WSBK suits, the knee protector has found its way into the consumer market through the Voltage suit. The dual density TPU material provides extra protection and abrasion resistance.

A mix between good ergonomics, abrasion resistance and feeling with the tarmac. The TPU knee slider feels at home at the track (or at a nice twisty back road without too much traffic... we won’t tell), and was developed with feedback of the pros.

Protection consisting of two parts that provides an improved fit and high flexibility.

Developed for critical areas that benefit from high mobility or dexterity, such as the knuckles.

It is made of TPU to ensure a high level of impact absorption and abrasion resistance.

You've probably hit your shin at some point in your life. If you did, you still remember how much it hurt.

No need to explain why we translated our Rider Impact Safety Concept to the shin area in our boots.

TPU is used to ensure a high level of impact absorption and abrasion resistance.

It doesn't take a lot to injure an ankle. Now imagine traffic being involved. That can get pretty serious, pretty fast.

Reason enough to developed RISC™ protection for the ankle area in our footwear.

The fragile knuckle of your ankle is protected by a TPU shield that provides impact absorption and abrasion resistance.

Your toes have a high chance of being one of the first parts to come in contact with the surface if things don't go as planned.

PROTECT. THEM. WELL.

We got you and your toes covered with impact-absorbent and abrasion-resistant RISC™ protection made of TPU.
