Attention racers and PWC enthusiasts, you have asked for a better riding boot and we at Jettribe have listened. After being on the APBA and IJSBA tour seeing racers and freestyle riders use various shoes from wrestling shoes to skate shoes we are proud to release our “RS-15” Race Boots with “Gecko Grip” sole! After careful research and testing we bring to you a true riding boot that is built around a PWC rider! To start with, the sole is modeled after the grip pads from a Gecko; we have built in about 433 individual traction pads. These are strategically spaced apart to allow the sole to quickly disperse water between the sole of your boot and the surface of your PWC to allow instant traction and grip to the deck of your PWC. Soles with flat surfaces tend to trap water between the sole and the deck tends to provide less grip and traction. It is very similar to the hydro planning when driving your car over a puddle of water.Second, the RS-15 rubber soles are designed with three raised contact points that accommodate a PWC rider’s aggressive stances. Most of the time we ride from the ball of our feet and are constantly switching our weight from the heel of our feet to our toes. Plus, the pre-curved sole with arch support allows maximum comfort! The soles wrap around the sides and toes, limiting the lateral “side to side” movement of the rider’s feet.
The extra high neoprene cut of the RS-15 boot limits the rocks and gravel from getting in. It has a front zippered entry for easy slip on or off. Plus three adjustable Velcro straps for a snug and better fit. The 9 mesh flow through panels allow water to drain quickly. We do not drill a hole on the bottom of our soles, like an afterthought.
These boots have been tested by racers all over the country, including Christine Milone, Chelsea Schneider, Jeremy Schandelmayer, Rick Sherker, and the Frame Brothers. Even when involved in high speed wipeouts, racers have reported that our Jettribe boots stay on while other brands of boots have fallen off.
We hope that you will ride with better comfort and performance with our RS-15 Race Boot!
Sizes: 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, & 13

Warning: It is important that you rinse off and clear all of the dirt, sand, gravel, and debris from the Jettribe zipper with fresh water. Also use our zipper lube wax that is included with your boots. The zipper tends to dry out and the wax will prolong the zipper’s life span. For more info on maintaining your race boots please check out the Jettribe website.
Important note: Jettribe recommends that when purchasing our RS-15 Race Boots please consider one size bigger. This will allow room for our neoprene race socks. For example, if you wear a size 9 normally for running shoes, then you should order a size 10 in our RS-15 race boots.
