The Fastback is an off-road boot designed for serious off-road riding, such as motocross and enduro. Its ankle-supporting pivot system and robust protection ensure high safety and stability even during intense riding.
And in fact, this boot is also an excellent choice for forest road touring. It offers the solid rigidity of an off-road boot combined with good operability, allowing you to ride with confidence on rough forest roads and long dirt trails.
It is highly regarded not only by competition-oriented riders but also by users who enjoy forest road touring.

Size Guide
~Please read before purchasing~
Gaerne products are designed for riding, so their sizing differs from general shoes. Additionally, each model has different lasts, sole shapes, and sole construction methods, resulting in variations in sizing. We have prepared a size chart based on the sole and last data for each model, so please use it to help you choose your size.
Fastback Enduro Size (equivalent to everyday sneaker size) 26 (equivalent to 25.5cm~26.0cm) 26.5 (equivalent to 26.5cm) 27 (equivalent to 27.0cm) 27.5 (equivalent to 27.5cm) 28 (equivalent to 28.0cm~28.5cm) 28.5 (equivalent to 29.0cm)
What truly distinguishes the Fastback is the "ankle frame" positioned around the ankle. So, what exactly does the ankle frame do? In short, it prevents "twisting." The ankle frame allows for vertical movement of the ankle while restricting horizontal movement. This means that normal pedal operation during riding and walking when dismounted are maintained, while protecting against sprains, fractures, and other injuries caused by "twisting" in accidents such as falls.
Pivot System
A pivot is an axis of rotation, and by placing this axis at the ankle part of the boot, the ankle can move. The metal screw at the ankle acts as this axis, and together with the attached plastic part, it is called the "pivot system." The greatest advantage of adopting a pivot system lies in controlling ankle movement. The degree of control varies depending on the design of the pivot system, which in turn changes the balance between protection and operability (higher protection means lower operability). Models that prioritize protection are Gaerne's top-of-the-line boots, the SG-12 and SG-22, while the Fastback is a model that prioritizes operability.
Sole Construction
What Gaerne is particularly particular about in boot manufacturing is the method of sole construction. The sole construction not only significantly changes the comfort but also makes a dramatic difference in protection. Gaerne's competition boots employ the traditional Northern Italian manufacturing method, said to last "100 years," called the Norwegian welt construction, commonly known as "Norvegiese." The major advantage of the Norwegian welt construction is that the sole's rigidity is extremely high. This method has been a commitment of founder Mr. Gazzola since Gaerne's inception and can only be achieved with the skill of artisans. This is also why Gaerne boots are still made in Italy.
