Mid-height adventure boot with a Gore-Tex membrane, full-grain leather, ankle, heel and toe reinforcements and EN 13634 Level 2 for abrasion, cut and rigidity.

Why it stands out

The Baja is one of the most popular adventure boots: TCX describes it as a hybrid between a hiking boot and a motocross boot. It has a Gore-Tex membrane and walks very well off the bike.

Key figures

  • Certified to EN 13634:2015 with Level 2 for abrasion, cut and transverse rigidity.
  • Waterproof, breathable Gore-Tex.
  • Full-grain leather with ankle, heel, toe and shin reinforcements.
  • Buckle closure.

Our verdict

A great alternative to the Forma Adventure Low, with Gore-Tex. Availability on Amazon is patchy: if you cannot find it, the Forma is the equivalent choice.

In short

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Is the TCX Baja Gore-Tex certified motorcycle footwear?

Yes: EN 13634:2015 (nivel 2 en abrasión, corte y rigidez). That means it has passed tests for impact abrasion, impact cut and transverse rigidity.

Is the TCX Baja Gore-Tex waterproof?

Yes, it has a waterproof, breathable Gore-Tex membrane. To stop water getting in from the top, wear your trousers over the boot.

Does the TCX Baja Gore-Tex protect the shin?

Partly: it is mid-height, so it protects the ankle and lower leg well, and in return it is far easier to walk in than a tall boot.
