The Acre boots from REV’IT! are in an indirect way the tall version of REV’IT!’s RedRidge GTX boots, here is what I had to say about the Ridge GTX:
“The RedRidge GTX boots from REV’IT! are new for Spring 2025 and are considered an adventure style boot, and with GTX in their name standing for Goretex, they are going to be waterproof. They were designed as a mid height boot that is supposed to have a rugged and vintage flare to them and I think REV’IT! succeeded in that.
Primary construction is going to be suede leather, it also has a water resistant finish, basically all the light brown parts that you see in the brown and black colorway for example are all suede, and then the darker brown parts are polyester ripstop.
At the back there is a pull tab, a bit of reflective material, and then at the ankles there are seesoft ankle disks on the inside to protect your ankles.
Moving to the front there is a TPU gear shift pad, it will be symmetrical on both boots, and the primary closure system is going to be laces. Cool thing about the laces is that they are fairly robust, feature metal eyelets and hooks and underneath the REV’IT! logo they have a nice pull tab that actually unbuttons and can be utilized as a way to keep the tied shoelaces in place.
Last item to touch on is the Vibram soul, it is a hybrid sole made of dampening EVA and 30% recycled rubber, it features fairly deep ridges offering a good amount of grip, a crush resistant shank and a good amount of flexibility to make walking off the bike fairly easy.
Overall I think the RedRidge GTX boots are a solid pair of boots, but they are not on the max end of protection, more somewhere in the middle, so keep that in mind as you think about the level of protection that you are looking for.”
Now like i said they are not exactly the same boot but there are some key differences and similarities. This is a very similar boot but it's the tall version and it does feature a few key changes. Again there are two colors, the black color remains but now the second color is army green instead of brown on the Acre, and the waterproof membrane changes from Goretex to REV’ITS own hydratex Z line.
The other major change is going to be the main closure, where the RedRidge boot was just laces, the Acre here has a lace and zipper panel, long story short you tighten the laces exactly how you want them and then going forward you can simply take the boots on and off with the zipper never having to adjust the laces again. Additionally if you are not a fan of this you can technically remove it and just use a normal, laces only setup.
Overall a great looking boot that performs well but again keep in mind that it is somewhere in the middle of the protection range compared to some of the more aggressive and protection minded adventure style boots. :: Damir 9/28/25
