About the ICON Stormhawk Water-Resistant Leather Motorcycle Boots with BOA Fit System and D3O

The ICON Stormhawk Boots are engineered for motorcycle enthusiasts who demand a perfect balance of durability, protection, and all-day comfort. Crafted with premium leather uppers featuring a water-resistant finish, these boots are designed to withstand the elements while maintaining a sleek, professional appearance.

Questions and answers

Are the Stormhawk boots actually waterproof?

They use a water-resistant leather upper with an eVent waterproof/breathable membrane, but owner reports are mixed. Some stay dry in rain, while others report leaks after a couple of months and treat them with a waterproofing spray.

How does the BOA system compare with laces?

The BOA dial tightens and releases the whole boot with one hand, which is faster than laces and easier with gloves. The trade-off is that a broken dial or wire is harder to fix on the road than a lace.

Are they good for walking off the bike?

Yes. The short shaft and light weight make them comfortable to walk in on breaks, and the lugged outsole grips on pavement and dirt. They are not a hiking boot, but they handle a day of mixed riding and walking.

Do they protect the shifter area?

No. There is no reinforced panel where the shift pedal rubs, and owners report the left boot cracking or melting there. If you ride a lot in traffic, expect visible wear on that spot.

What is in the box?

One pair of Stormhawk boots. The BOA lacing is built in, so there are no spare laces to fit; check the fit at the dial before your first ride.

How do they fit compared with other riding boots?

Owners say they fit true to size and work with jeans or textile riding trousers. The BOA dial lets you tighten the instep and ankle separately from the shaft, so a slightly wide foot can still get a secure fit.
