Clan shoes

Most riding boots stay in the cupboard after the first few rides. They are bulky to walk in, awkward to carry to work, and just uncomfortable enough that riders reach for regular sneakers instead, protection or not.

Clan shoes were built to fix that. Every shoe clan makes is designed to look and feel like a regular sneaker while still carrying real protection underneath, so there is no excuse to leave it at home before a ride.

Each pair uses a DryTech waterproof membrane to handle rain and wet roads, along with D3O protection at the ankle, toe and heel on most models. A few, like the Stealth SNKR edition, are CE certified for riders who want that extra assurance on paper.

Browse the range below by model. Scout is the lightest and most affordable, Torque adds more structure and support, and Stealth brings a premium leather finish with the same protection built in.

• Wearable every day: Sneaker looks with genuine riding protection, so you actually wear them off the bike too.
• D3O protection: Ankle, toe and heel protection on most Clan shoes, with a CE certified option in the Stealth range.
• Waterproof variants: DryTech membrane keeps your feet dry through rain and wet commutes.
• Backed after the ride too: 1 year crash damage cover on top of the standard warranty, so a fall does not mean starting over.

The Clan Range Explained

Scout is the entry point into the range and the one most city riders pick up first. It is built lightweight and flexible, with a D3O option and the same waterproof membrane as the rest of the lineup, priced to make upgrading from regular sneakers an easy decision.

Torque sits in the middle with a more structured, matte tech build. It carries D3O ankle armour along with reinforced toe and heel protection, aimed at riders who commute daily or take longer weekend rides and want a bit more support without stepping up to a full boot.

Stealth is the premium option, built with coated leather instead of PU and offered with D3O or rigid TPU ankle protection depending on the variant. The SNKR Stealth Edition is CE certified, which matters if you specifically want a shoe that meets that standard rather than just riding gear that looks protective.

Sizing runs true across the range in EU sizes, and most models are available in men’s, women’s and unisex fits depending on the colourway.

FAQs

Q: What is Clan shoes and how is it different from regular riding boots?

A: Clan shoes is a riding footwear brand built around the idea that protective gear should be comfortable enough to wear all day, not just during a ride. Instead of bulky touring boots, shoe clan designs look like everyday sneakers while still using D3O protection and a waterproof build underneath.

Q: Are Clan shoes actually waterproof?

A: Yes. Clan shoe waterproof models use a DryTech waterproof membrane, so your feet stay dry riding through rain or standing water on the road. It works the same way as a waterproof hiking shoe, keeping water out while still letting the shoe breathe.

Q: What does D3O protection mean on a Clan shoe?

A: D3O is a soft, flexible material that stiffens instantly on impact, so it stays comfortable to walk in but hardens to absorb shock if you come off the bike. Most Clan models use it at the ankle, toe and heel, which are the areas that take the most impact in a fall.

Q: Which Clan shoe should I buy, Scout, Torque or Stealth?

A: Scout is the lightest and most affordable, a good fit if you mainly ride around the city and want an easy upgrade from regular sneakers. Torque adds more structure for daily commuters and longer rides, while Stealth is the premium leather option, with the SNKR edition being CE certified if that certification matters to you.

Q: What happens if my Clan shoes get damaged in a fall?

A: Clan shoes come with a 1 year crash damage cover in addition to the regular warranty, so a genuine fall does not automatically mean buying a new pair. Coverage is subject to the brand’s terms, so it is worth checking the specific policy for your model before you buy.

Q: How do Clan shoe sizes run?

A: Clan shoes are sized in EU sizing and generally run true to size, so ordering your usual EU size is a safe starting point. If you are between sizes or unsure, checking the size chart on the specific product page before ordering is the safer option.
