Alpinestars Web Gore-Tex Boots - Black

Initial impression

I purchased these as I previously owned the more sports bike oriented SMX goretex Alpinestars boots. These had covered many thousands of miles and always remained waterproof. As I no longer own a sports bike I chose these as a replacement and hopefully they'll prove as durable as my previous ones. The quality looks great and the fit is just the same. I'm size 8 and find the fit slightly on the small side with size 53 being perfect although this corresponds to size 9. Not had chance to fully test them on the bike as yet but confident they will be as good as my previous pair.

Comfy, waterproof and great fit

This is the second pair I have bought so my review covers about 8 years. I have difficulty finding boots that fit comfortably and these are really good, they have kept their shape well and are waterproof in extreme conditions. They are mostly leather so need to be cared for accordingly. Never been crash tested but protection feels good.

Terrific value

Excellent boot, fits very well warm dry and comfortable

Great value

The boots - fit is good, I'm usually 10,5UK went with EU size 45 and they are as expected - nice and tight fit around the ankle and the foot is not cramped. Not ridden in rain yet, but they performed well in winter rides over festive period (no winter boot but feet weren't cold either). The ankle stiffness might be felt initially but it goes away after few rides. Would buy again as they feel comfy and seem to be well built. SBS service - as always, only good things, huge thanks!

Water and crash proof

Bought a second pair after owning my old pair for a year before unfortunately getting damaged in a crash. In spite of sliding under the bike at approximately 40mph after a car clipped me, I sustained no injuries to my feet or ankiles. In the year of ownership they never leaked whatever the weather, were comfortable and warm. Only criticism is perhaps a little too warm on the hottest of UK days, and I find going one size bigger than usual with alpinestars boots a good fit.

Great Boot

Great boot, perfect fit. First ride out in the wet - feet were warm, dry and very comfortable. I would highly recommend!

Quality, quality, quality

What a fantastic pair of boots, dead comfy from the first ride and as for sizing,,,, spot on!. You can really appreciate the quality when you compare them to the less expensive end of the market, and I should know, I've had a few pairs over the last twenty five years!. I don't think they're aimed at the race boot sector but then again I can't remember the last BSB, WSB or Moto GP race I last entered!!. Think these fellas will see several years of service before they will need a "refresh".

Just the job!

Well put together pair of boots. Very comfortable on and off the bike. Waterproofness not tested yet but I'm confident the gortex will perform.

Good value Gortex

Excellent service, I visited Bristol, Abbeywood store to try them on. Very helpful advice to help me choose. Alpinestar are best priced Gortex, comfortable and look like they will last

Alpinestars

A great little touring boot fits like a glove so to speak, comfortable both on and off the bike, well constructed boot for the price, excellent choice.
