We do very much like TCX’s latest boot, the RT-Race, rather a lot. It packs in a huge amount of spec into (we think) a decent price point RRP of £229, and then some…
As most avid bikers will be aware, TCX (formely Oxtar) is a very poplular brand among racers and consumers both, and every year their kit just gets better and better. The RT-Race is the culmination of years of research and development, and you can see a quick, down and dirty unboxing video just below.

We’re enjoying our time with them thus far, and reckon they’re one of the very best boots on the market. At the very least they should be worth your consideration if you’re looking for a pair of race boots, as they’re comfy, seemingly hard wearing (so far), and make your feet feel nice and safe, too. But you may want to hurry, as we know stocks are vanishing fast, so popular is the new RT!
