Alpinestars Tech-1 KX V3 Racing Shoes Silver (FIA)

Alpinestars Tech-1 KX V3 are karting shoes with FIA 8877-2022 homologation, made for adult drivers. The manufacturer has combined solutions known from Formula 1 with the demands of the karting track, focusing on low weight, pedal feel and a secure hold for your foot.

The model comes in a silver, black and orange colour combination. These shoes are ready for training sessions as well as for competitions where FIA homologation is required.

Detailed look at the shoes

The upper is largely silver, with an orange panel on the outer side of one shoe and black inserts around the ankle. The thin sole and the laces are orange too. On the side you will see a large Alpinestars star logo outlined with a black line, and the brand name on the strap. At the back, on the black heel overlay, there is a 1KX marking. The air vents form a distinctive pattern of oval openings, with fine perforations near the toes.

Construction and materials

• Material: ultra-thin PU film combined with 3D mesh keeps the shoes light and durable.
• Ventilation: laser-cut vents and perforations on the toes and along the sides improve airflow.
• Tongue: made of micro suede and 3D mesh, it supports air circulation.
• Sole: thin and rubber, with a textured tread for secure grip.
• Fastening: adjustable strap and quick aramid lacing with the Alpinestars wire system.
• Collar: soft, made of microfibre, cut lower at the back so it does not press on your Achilles tendon.

For the licensed karting driver

These shoes are made for adult racers who need homologated footwear for karting events and value precise pedal feel in the cockpit. The slim, anatomical profile holds your foot firmly in place.
