Falco Boots - EICMA 2010 Live Report

---

November 1, 2010 - Falco sent some pre-show press release information and photos on their new line of boots for 2011.

These are Italian hand-made boots; we reviewed a couple of pair of Falco boots and Falco gloves on webBikeWorld and I hope to get a few of these also for further evaluation.

Here are some low-res press photos; I'll plan on stopping by the Falco booth to see if I can get some better pics during the week.

Our top products feature the application of "d3o Intelligent shock absorption" developed in snow-sports and military industry and now first exclusively applied to motorcycle boots by Falco.

d3o material is made of "intelligent molecules" that flow freely when moving slowly but on shock lock together in net to absorb impact energy. Transmitted force to ankle-foot area is significantly reduced thanks to d3o exclusive support.
