The label inside your boots will tell you about what tests they've gone through, and how they did. Here's how to decipher those labels for yourself...
Needed some waterproof boots for a 5 day trip into Europe with rain in the forecast, these did the job admirably, easy to break in, comfortable and more importantly kept my feet dry, would definitely recommend
Excellent boots. Like wearing slippers. Superb fit
Very impressed with these boots so far. Quality appears to be top notch and they fit like old slippers. Laces are long but can be easily tucked away.
very comfy very well made and she looks good in them and she is much happier than full boots
Fast shipping, excellent. Fits perfectly
Very comfortable sturdy boots .
I can wear these boots all day very easily.
A top quality product.
Ordered my normal size and the first time i wore them they were a touch tight but after wearing them a few times they gave a bit and fit just right now. As expected they are quality.
Nice light boot with good angle support, waterproof as well
I loved the look of these boots, very comfortable, practical and look the business. Very good indeed.
I was looking for a lightweight summer boot but didn't want to spend a fortune.
These ticked all the boxes, comfortable to wear on and off the bike, waterproof to a point and didn't break the bank.
Would highly recommend.
Good solid sturdy boots, recommend your normal size fits well. Long laces but just tuck them inside.
Very comfortable and warm and didn't let any water in during heavy rain. Sizing for me was spot on
Great quality as you would expect from Alpinestars. I bought these shoes for quick rides in town and they work very well so far. Comfortable enough and gives good protection.
Great boots really warm and comfortable
Fantastic fit, extremely comfortable, definitely waterproof! Unfortunately field proven- 250+ miles in torrential rain! Only annoyance is one of the laces sticking to the Velcro when tying them!
Order a size smaller. Nice looking boot for wearing with jean's.
Before I begin keep in mind that I went in expecting a high quality, well thought design since they're Alpinestars boots and not some no name brand I hadn't heard of.
In all fairness, the boots match the description on the page 100%, they're waterproof, comfortable, warm and look good but I have a few gripes with them nonetheless.
First, order the size you usually wear. Other reviews said they fit large but I have found that to not be true. Initially ordered size 11 and then had to go up one to size 12.
Second, the material they're made from looks really good while in the box but it's very sticky so they get dirty really easy. Besides this, I've had them for two weeks and the material is already showing creases around the toe box and the heel.
Third, the shoelaces are extremely long in comparison with how much of them you're going to use. I thought the laces would go all the way up under the Velcro strap as well but they don't. The hoops stop around the same height as a normal sneaker's would which makes it impossible to get a tight fit.
Fourth, the Velcro strap holds it's own very well and it sticks and stays there but given the situation with the shoelaces I would've preferred a d-ring setup at the top so that I could use the strap to tighten them up. Like this, they're very tight on the foot below the ankle and a bit too loose for my taste up top around the sheen. I have huge doubts these will hold your ankle in place in the event of a crash.
In conclusion, they're good boots but they're not great. The shoelaces bother me the most. I think that the shoelaces might be so long so that you can loop them around your foot and then tie them (that's how I do it now) but to be hones, it doesn't look good at all if you wear your trousers inside the boots'.
