Protect Your Snowmobile Boots Protected & Feet Insulated
As a snowmobiler or snowbiker, you must know how much damage you can do to your feet without using proper boots. You’re also aware of how easy Snowmobile boots are to wear out since they are only sometimes made with solid composites. The only reason is that snowmobile boots need flexibility to allow your ankle to move freely.
Because of this, your Snowmobile boots could wear out quickly. If you’re new to Snowmobiling, this could be better since it could cause injury.
The trouble is, once you start to notice wear and tear on your Snowmobile boots, you may not be able to repair them. Most boot repairs are extremely expensive, not counting possibly buying a whole new pair.
Tuff Toe for Snowmobile boots is your solution, though it pays to know what kind of boot damage you might face. With our product, you won’t have to rely on cheap glue-on-toe guards.
Why Your Boot’s Toe Area Could Wear Out
When snowmobiling, your boots face significant stress, especially in the toe area. Key issues include:
- High stress leads to wear and tear
- Flexible boots prone to rips
- Potential performance impacts for professional snowmobilers
Considering the stress you place on your boots while snowmobiling, the toe area can quickly fall apart. Snowmobile boots usually come in either flexible or stiffer versions, depending on what speeds you want to accomplish as a Snowmobiler.
Many who want fast speeds choose stiffer boots despite the flexible version usually fitting better. With these softer boots, you’re more apt to cause rips in the toe or ankle area that could affect Snowmobile performance.
If you’re a professional Snowmobiler, you obviously can’t have this happen, especially during competition.
Let’s examine the damage you might experience in the boot’s toe and ankle areas a little more closely.
Fixing the Toe Area of Your Snowmobile Boot
Since leather is not available on soft Snowmobile boots, the chances are good. You could discover a tear in the toe area that might ordinarily mean complete replacement. Your first thought is perhaps to go cheap and buy those quickie repair kits using glue-on methods.
With our product, Tuff Toe, you don’t have to worry about discarding your boot just because the toe area wore out. First, these weak formulas don’t hold up when exposed to heat or water. For Snowmobile boots, this can render the old glue-on systems useless.
Tuff Toe is entirely waterproof, with evidence passing the NFPA 1901-07, 7.10.17 water penetration test.
Once you fix the toe area, you can expect it to hold up through the most challenging conditions. However, you may discover problems around the ankle area as well.
Fixing the Ankle on Your Boot
Please take a look at some pictures we recently took of Snowmobile boots to see how much damage the ankle area can experience. Even the smallest hole or rip could affect boot performance and allow snow and moisture to enter.
As you can see in the pictures above, some people attempt to tape up their deteriorating boot ankles, thinking it’s enough to hold up while doing casual Snowmobile riding. This is the weakest repair form when considering how much wear and tear your boot goes through in the snow.
Using Tuff Toe, you merely mix the provided material and spread it over the affected area. The material blends right in with the boot material, so it matches the color and doesn’t look like an amateurish repair job.
Most of all, you’ll prevent further damage, considering the ankle area will be most stressed since a snowmobile requires extreme ankle movement.
