Good questions before you ride.
Fit, waterproofing, D3O® protection and intended use—answered clearly.
How should I choose my size?
Measure your foot, compare it with the size chart and choose from that measurement rather than relying only on your usual brand size. Eligible unused pairs have free returns & size exchanges within 7 days.
What does D3O® ankle protection do?
D3O® protectors are flexible during normal movement and designed to absorb and disperse impact energy when struck. Torque uses D3O® at the ankles while the complete shoe—not only the component—has completed and passed the EN 13634 test programme. Formal certification is pending.
Can I wear Torque at work and walk in it all day?
Torque is designed for commuting, walking and everyday wear. Its reinforced toe and heel will feel firmer than an ordinary sneaker, while the cushioned footbed, breathable liner and streetwear high-top shape are built for life beyond the bike.
How waterproof is Torque—and will it feel warm?
The DryTech membrane is designed for rain, road spray and wet commutes. Torque is not intended for prolonged submersion, and water can enter through the ankle opening. As with most waterproof footwear, airflow is lower than in a ventilated shoe; moisture-wicking socks improve hot-weather comfort.
Is Torque suitable for highway touring?
Torque is intended for daily commuting, city riding and weekend road touring. Riders wanting maximum shin coverage, technical off-road protection or track-focused performance should choose an appropriate full-height motorcycle boot.
How do the warranty and crash replacement differ?
Our 1-Year Warranty covers manufacturing defects like stitching, sole bonding, and material failures.
Our 1-Year Crash Replacement covers damage caused by a motorcycle crash within one year of purchase.
Normal wear, misuse, and accidental damage unrelated to riding aren't covered.
Can I cancel my order?

I’ve been using the Clan Torque D3O for over a month, and my experience has been really good. Comfortable for everyday rides, stylish enough to wear off the bike, and gives you that extra confidence while riding.
I've been riding with the Clan Stealth for the last 3 years, and they've been with me through everything: daily office commutes, weekend breakfast rides, 17,000+ km tours, and even plenty of off-road trails. They've never disappointed me in terms of comfort, decent protection or reliability.
I was excited to get my hands on the new Clan Torque, and my first impression is genuinely impressive.
The design is sleek, modern, and premium without looking bulky. The fit feels comfortable right out of the box, and the cushioning makes them easy to wear even when you're off the bike.
Come with the D3O ankle protection. It gives you serious impact protection while remaining soft and flexible during everyday use. Pair that with the waterproof construction, and these boots are ready for unexpected rain, long-distance touring, and everyday riding alike.
If you're looking for one pair of riding shoes that combines style, comfort, protection, and all-weather capability, the Clan Torque is definitely worth considering. 🏍️🛡️💯
Finally, riding shoes you actually want to walk around in!
I’ve been looking for gear that bridges the gap between highway safety and everyday street style, and the Clan Torque D3O nailed it. Most riding boots are a nightmare to walk around in once you step off the bike, but these feel just like high-top sneakers.
The built-in D3O ankle protection gives you complete confidence on the road without feeling stiff or bulky when walking into a café. Plus, the thermoformed toe/heel caps and reinforced upper handle daily gear shifts with zero scuffing. If you're tired of compromising between looking good and staying protected, grab these without thinking twice. 10/10 recommendation!
Excellent First Impressions & Premium Build
I’ve been genuinely impressed with the Clan Torque D3O from the moment I unboxed it. The build quality feels premium, the fit is comfortable, and the overall design strikes a great balance between everyday wear and riding functionality.
The D3O ankle protection, sturdy sole, and quality finish give confidence while riding, while the styling is subtle enough to wear off the bike as well. Gear shifting feels natural, and the shoes are comfortable for both short rides and walking around.
If you’re looking for an urban riding shoe that combines protection, comfort, and a clean design, the Clan Torque D3O is definitely worth considering.
I’ve been using The Clan Torque D30 for my daily commute and weekend rides, and it’s easily one of the most versatile shoes I've owned. It looks and feels like a comfortable everyday sneaker, but delivers real protection with built-in D30 armor and full waterproofing. If you need one shoe that does it all—daily wear and weekend trips—go for the Clan Torque D30.
Excellent Daily Riding Shoes
I've been using the Clan Torque D3O for both city commutes and weekend rides, and they've exceeded my expectations. The fit is comfortable after a short break-in period, and the D3O ankle protection gives extra confidence while riding. The grip is excellent even on wet roads, gear shifting feels natural, and the waterproofing is a huge advantage during monsoon rides.
What I liked the most is that they don't look like bulky riding boots—you can comfortably walk around or even wear them to work. The build quality, stitching, and finish feel premium for the price.
If I had to mention one small thing, they're a bit snug initially, but they become much more comfortable after a couple of rides.
Overall, I highly recommend the Clan Torque D3O to riders looking for a stylish, comfortable, and protective riding shoe for everyday use. Great value for money!
I've been using the Clan Torque Waterproof Riding Shoes with D3O, and they've genuinely impressed me on every ride. The combination of D3O impact protection and a rugged waterproof construction gives me complete confidence, whether I'm riding through city traffic or unexpected rain.
The comfort is outstanding, even on long rides. The fit feels secure without being restrictive, and the shoes are comfortable enough to walk around in after parking the bike. The grip is excellent, providing confidence while stopping and moving the motorcycle on different surfaces.
What I appreciate the most is how Clan has managed to blend premium safety with everyday usability. The waterproofing performs exactly as promised, keeping my feet dry in wet conditions, while the overall build quality feels durable and well-finished.
If you're looking for riding shoes that offer excellent protection, all-weather capability, and all-day comfort, the Clan Torque Waterproof Riding Shoes with D3O are an easy recommendation. They've become my go-to riding shoes, and I'm thoroughly impressed with their performance.

I’ve been using Clan riding shoes for a while, and the new Clan Torque is a noticeable upgrade over the previous version.🔥🔥🔥🔥
It still looks like a sneaker, but now offers even better protection and everyday usability. A solid upgrade for riders who want comfort without compromising on safety.
Feels Premium! Loved the comfort, can be comfortable for all day use, expect walking if you walk around a lot.
Takes 2-3 days to get used to it , then it will be like normal High ankel shoes.
