Alpinestars - Tech 10 LE Fortitude Boots
The Tech 10 has set the standard for Motocross boot performance and protection for well over a decade now, with an ongoing focus on product development and innovation that continues to raise the performance envelope higher and higher. Here at Alpinestars, we believe in perfection through innovation; while maintaining the iconic Tech 10 look, the latest iteration of the boot works tirelessly to offer a rider the ultimate in feel, comfort, and overall safety, lifting the ceiling of what a premium motocross boot should be higher than ever before. The Tech 10’s ongoing development has been guided by three key priorities, as the Alpinestars technical footwear team looked to improve overall functionality, performance, and safety, decrease weight, and reduce material volume on the boot. Maximizing these priorities is the key achievement of the latest Tech 10 and the result is a far greater range of movement and flexibility, while offering better control over the flexion and torsion forces that significantly improve boot performance, giving the rider greater confidence and protection.
Why We Like It
The Alpinestars Tech 10 LE Fortitude Boots make sense for riders who care about a secure feel at the pegs and a more serious riding setup.
Why It Works For You
The Alpinestars Tech 10 LE Fortitude Boots help complete the Alpinestars setup with the support and structure riders expect from dedicated moto footwear.
Key Features
- Material composites have been created that are lighter in weight and more durable to ensure they hold up to the rigors of off-road riding. The new, cold-forged, aluminum buckles are not only easier to operate, more durable, and provide a self-aligning closure that offers a positive hold across the upper surfaces of the boot, this evolution has resulted in an impressive reduction in weight of over 400 grams (almost 1lb) for the MX25 Tech 10 Boots.
- The new streamlined boot design also reduces the Tech 10’s profile and physical size. By incorporating the newer, lighter, and more durable composite materials and using a more integrated approach to the construction of the components, we’ve been able to dynamically enhance the chassis of the boot as well as use more advanced bonding processes.
- The Tech 10 chassis combines advanced lightweight microfiber and with an impact and abrasion resistant TPU shell.
- Engineered frontal flexion control is offered by a dual-density TPU connector system, uniting the lower buckle plate with the upper blade connector, buckle and shin protector. Engineered to ‘float’ freely between the lower and upper boot construction, the Frontal Flex Frame acts as a shock absorber by distributing energy across the boot frame while controlling forward and rearward flex, progressively releasing force which dampens and absorbs impact energies.
- Asymmetrical, dual pivot arms on boot frame.
- A unique feature of the Tech 10 is the ankle control system developed in the outer shell construction, allowing natural ankle movement, vertical compression control and improved impact protection.
- Asymmetrical medial and lateral double pivot system for improved levels of flexibility and precision for both independent and synchronized movement. The medial pivot arm’s higher placement reduces material volume in the lower part of the boot, creating more space for the patented inner ankle brace system to have free movement and improve control. Reducing the volume on the inner side also reduces abrasion, where the boot is in contact with the bike and improves grip and feel.
- Low-profile, pull-on design for reduced material build, less weight and to facilitate easier and quicker wearing.
- Innovative flexion inserts work seamlessly with the Tech 10’s flex support system for ultimate in performance.
- TPU protection and shock absorbing padding on the heel and ankles and an ultra-thin and flexible forefoot area for increased sensitivity and control.
- Dual compound removable anatomic footbed includes EVA for comfort and support and aids even weight distribution.
- Sole with proprietary grip sculpturing delivers superior foot-peg performance, grip and mud and water run-off.
- The central sole insert features micro grip and side hooking grip design. It is easily replaceable and Alpinestars offers a full sole replacement and boot repair service.
- Triple buckle closure system features a nylon and fiberglass compound for improved durability and strength, and the slim-line buckles include high-impact bridge closures which are cold forged for precision and strength.

Profoundly Deep and Spiritual Homilies
Format: Hardcover
Cardinal Cantalamessa's homilies are interesting and deep. I can't possibly read them except slowly and meditatively.

A readable set of reflections on Faith, Hope, and Charity
Format: Hardcover
Cardinal Raniero Cantalamessa offers a series of wonderful theological and spiritual insights into the three theological virtues of Faith, Hope, and Charity. Taking presentations on each of the virtues, the Cardinal edited each into smaller units, each three to four pages in length. This makes for easy reading (one could take a selection a day) for "lectio divina". His treatment of "Justification by Faith" puts what has been a "thorn of contention" into easily understood terms that can open itself to ecumenical dialog with other Christian denominations for whom this has been a point of misunderstanding of the Catholic position.

We can all be wise men bearing gifts to Jesus
Format: Hardcover
Faith, hope, and charity are not just virtues that we can develop to bring ourselves closer to God and our fellow person but they are also gifts that we can bring to God, writes this household preacher to two Popes. Cardinal Cantalamessa writes on serious topics with an accessible and joyful style that welcomes the reader to see him or herself as one of the Magi bringing precious and deeply meaningful gifts to Christ.

Beautiful and profound, albeit flawed
Format: Hardcover
What I'd really like to rate this is 4 1/2 stars, because it isn't perfect, but it's better than a 4. I just can't bear to give it a 5, for reasons described below.
The book has three main parts, each named for a theological virtue of the title. Altogether there are 40 chapters: 14 dedicated to faith, 10 to hope, and 16 to charity. A couple of "Bonus" chapters called "Excursus" take up some interesting theological questions that are related but don't quite fall under any one topic: did Jesus possess the theological virtues? and From God as Love to the Filioque.
The book is deeply learned and cites theologians through the centuries, including a few I'd never heard of despite a lot of formal and informal theological study. Of course you meet the usual suspects such as Origen, pseudo-Dionysius, Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, Catherine of Siena, John of the Cross, Mother Teresa, and others; but: have YOU heard of St. Zeno of Verona before? If not, you're in for a treat!
The text has more of an Augustinian flavor than a Scholastic one. (I should qualify that claim by admitting that I am at best an armchair theologian, so don't quote me on that.) But, for example: Chapter 39 discusses Beauty, uses the idea of God's eternal Beauty to explain the Trinity, and concludes with St. Augustine's "recipe" for becoming beautiful. Indeed, an in-depth discussion of the Trinity doesn't appear at all until Part 3 on Charity, rather than in the chapter on Faith!
An important distinction that Fr. Cantalamessa draws is between "objective" aspects of a theological virtue and the "subjective" aspects of the same. The "objective" aspects refer to the object of the virtue, such as God Himself; the "subjective" aspects refer to how we experience them. He points out that, historically, the "objective" view tended to predominate in theological discussion, whereas the "subjective" view tends to dominate more recently, almost to the exclusion of the objective. It will probably not surprise the reader that Fr. Cantalamessa, former Preacher to the Papal Hosuehold, comes down squarely in the Catholic approach of "both/and", and he elaborates on this.
A very appealing aspect of this book is the occasional use of parable and analogy to explain difficult subjects: a parable on trying to justify ourselves by our works (Ch. 7), analogies for "the hint that God exists" (ch. 5), the analogy of the seed (ch. 14), an analogy that hope needs difficulties and tribulations (ch. 22), the Trinity (ch. 29), God's love for us is erotic (ch. 34), and how we might hope that even Nietzsche can be saved (ch. 37). Many analogies, though not all, are drawn from ordinary family life: a mother's love for a child, a child's temper tantrum before collapsing in tears on a parent. These are powerful and effective.
Unfortunately, I can't rate it 5 stars, because the text seems to consider its audience to be the average educated lay Catholic, but there are two serious weaknesses both for the theological newbie and even for the theological adolescent.
One is the use of many unfamiliar terms, some of them merely transliterated from Greek, and no definition given anywhere -- often, not even a hint of what the word may mean. In some cases this can make it difficult to follow the discussion. For instance, the text dedicates two entire chapters to the question of justification, which makes sense given that it's an important topic in the realm of faith, and it's important to take it seriously. But the book never once provides a definition, which suggests the reader should be familiar with the term already. I guarantee you most people don't know what the word means. But even if you think that a definition of "justification" will indeed come tripping off the average reader's tongue, I challenge you to make a case for terms like ontological, parousia, and parenesis. I've been reading Catholic theology for 30 years and parenesis is a new one even to me. Sure, the reader might could look them up, and I'm glad to expand my vocabulary, but who's the audience here? If the text is meant only for seminarians, then never mind, but given how Word on Fire is marketing this I really don't think that is the case.
The second major weakness is all the more disappointing, as it is so common to contemporary works of theology: when newer developments seem to contradict past dogma or even Scripture itself, pretend the dogma and Scripture doesn't exist. This happens at least twice:
1) Surely Fr. Cantalamessa is not unaware that Scripture both Old and New is replete with references to Christ "ransoming" us from God's wrath. Yet there he is in Chapter 31, not merely acting as if it doesn't exist, but contemptuously dismissive of the notion! Grant the Scholastics this much: at least they took Matthew 20.28, Romans 1.18, Romans 2.5-8, 1 Timothy 2.6, 1 Peter 1.18-19, and Revelation 19.15 seriously enough to wrestle with them.
2) Similarly, the Council of Florence made certain pronouncements on "those existing outside the Catholic Church" and "the souls of those who depart this life in actual mortal sin, or in original sin alone." Chapter 14 acts as if they do not exist. I do not for a moment mean to advocate for the "glass half-empty" interpretation of these pronouncements that predominated theological discourse for centuries, let alone for Feeneyism, but we ignore them at our peril, if only because ignoring them leaves a great big breach in the apologetic wall that will come under assault both from those who do reject the Second Vatican Council and from hostile Protestants more knowledgeable of Catholic theological history than the average Catholic and, one half-wonders, the average Catholic theologian.
Those drawbacks, while severe enough in my eyes to warrant mention and deduct a star, do not for a moment take away from the beauty and profundity of the rest of this work. I am very glad to have had the chance to read it; it has challenged me both intellectually and spiritually, and I have given it to my (late teenage) children to read and discuss with me. It is absolutely worth reading, and you WILL get a lot out of it. Just be ready for the challenge.
