Comfy but hot!
27 May 2025 by Matt F
Right out the box these are comfortable. They fit really nicely and make you feel reassurance. I tried these boots as well as 2x pairs from RST. The offerings from RST felt inferior, not as well made, chunky, and certainly not as comfortable straight out the box.
Having worn these SMX-6 V2 boots for a decent amount of time since buying them, I can say they are incredibly comfy, good to walk around in whilst off the bike, have a sporty feel - but not extreme, but they are very hot. There's no ventilation on them. I'd recommend these boots. SBS had them at a great price at like 45% off the RRP.

Comfortable from first wear, Velcro and zip fastenings very secure. Colours match my bike (obviously the most important bit).

Very comfortable boots
31 March 2025 by Alan D
Alpinestars quality, comfortable straight out of the box. I am a 10 UK and a 45 was per with bike socks. These feel quality and look good, no issues walking around in them. I imagine that they’d be all day comfortable.

The most comfortable, warm boots

This is my 3rd pair of alpinestars, chosen not just for safety but also comfort. I can walk in these as they are wide enough across the foot. They look good, too.

So comfy
17 November 2024 by Anonymous
I haven't used them on the bike yet but I can say they are super comfy and feel supportive. I've been breaking them in by walking around at home and I can say they feel good to walk in and there is ample Velcro to fit even the biggest calf's great lateral support which makes you have confidence they will support and protect in a crash

Great Boots
16 September 2024 by Richard S
Bought these to replace old pair of SMX-6, so kind of knew what I was getting, but just as good.
Really impressed with grip level, especially on my commute, using bus lanes, other boots have been lacking. Very comfortable, wear them all year round. I did go for a EU size 46, where as I'm usually 45, so definitely worth trying before you buy. Great boots, would highly recomend.

Comfortable Boot
09 August 2024 by Peter D
Excellent boot. I'm a size 11 and a 46 fits perfectly. Tried on Supertechs at same time and these just felt better right from the off. Great retention with Velcro and zipper, easy to get on and secure. Feel solid when on and comfy on the bike

Alpinestars SMX-6 V2 Boots - Black / Red
23 May 2024 by Tom M
I ordered a pair of boots one size larger than my previous Alpinestars boots. These were now much easier to get on/off and were comfortable wearing all day at a bike event. Comfortable to wear riding on the bike as well.

These are Awesome Boots
19 April 2024 by Karen
These are the second pair of boots I've bought through Sportsbikeshop in the last 5 months, because after 5 months of trying to break in the new, tight, Sidi boots, I gave up and bought these Alpinestar boots.
Chalk and cheese! These boots are like putting on a favourite pair of comfy slippers, even though they're the same size as the Sidi. They look good, lovely and secure when zipped up with the velcro fastening over, perfect!

Boots
16 May 2023 by Xander B
Had to go up a size compared to my shorter alpinestar boots due to fat shins, other than that a great fit, very comfortable after breaking them in. Would recommend for people with big feet. Worth the money and cant wait to ride in them
