P110 PRODUCT REVIEWI T he Sidi X-Power Lei Wom- en's Boot is built for slim- mer feet, higher arches and wider calves, versus the standard Sidi X-Power Boot, and is the suc - cessor to the Sidi X-3 Lei Boot. The X-Power Lei Women's Boot offers a step up in protection and support with a sturdier build, stopping short of the same level of Sidi's flagship Crossfire boot. The X-Power Lei Women's Boot, and the standard X-Power Boot, share a lot of the same chassis components as the Crossfire, including the TA sole, cam lock buckles and Cambrelle inner lin - ing, but they come in at $449.99 (for both men's and women's), giving riders a solid quality option for under $500. For this price point you still get a hinged design with a flex system for added ankle protection. There is no inner bootie, but there is an extra-soft lining and thermoformed padded microfiber in the Achilles area. Accordion- style gaiters at the top help keep out debris. The sole, buckles and any of the bolt on parts are replaceable. The X-Power Lei Women's Boot is available in white, while the standard X-Power is available in black, blue, grey and red. Unless you have worn a pair of Sidi Crossfire boots, you might not know the X-Power Lei Women's Boot isn't Sidi's top- of-the-line motocross offering. PHOTO: JAMES ADAMS SIDI X-POWER LEI WOMEN'S
