Understated pair of shoes - classy not showy

07 July 2025 by Muhammad Q

These do not stand out, go very well with my Rokker black chinos, therefore off the bike and straight into the office without anyone noticing. These are very comfortable from the off, very light, had to go two sizes up for the right fit in the end simply decided to go the SBS Harlow. I did get slightly lost, but a young lady who used to work at SBS on her honda ? stopped and led the way, very thankful for that.Frankly, rather than going backwards and forwards exchanging the product, this was quicker even though it wasted half a day. Very comfortable and so much easier to put on than my boots.

Light, comfortable, waterproof

05 July 2025 by Dennis

These shoes/boots fit me very well. They are nice and light but tough feeling at the same time. They are waterproof too, which is great. They also seem to be well made.

Comfortable to wear, quick to dry

04 June 2025 by Ralph H

Before buying these shoes I read the reviews that said they fit a bit small. I wear a 43 in everything but when they arrived they were just too tight for comfort. I had bought them off the internet but decided to take them to the store closest to me (Leeds) and try some on. The people in Leeds were really helpful and a pair of 44’s did the trick.
My first real ride in them was to Wales in the rain. My feet did stay warm but water wicked down my socks and the inside of the shoes were wet by the time I got there. Unfortunately the hotel did not have a drying room (or room heating) so I packed the shoes wit toilet paper when I got changed and again before bed and by morning they were dry. Absolutely dry. Brilliant.
I have enjoyed wearing these shoes since the first gear change and I’m happy to recommend them to other riders.

Comfort at a good price.

19 May 2025 by Tang71

I was looking for a shorty boot for a planned Spain trip later in the year .Thought if I buy them now they should be broken in by then. Very comfortable boot . I went up an extra half size which was the right move as others have said .my only gripe is the Velcro strap could be a little longer and could do with a loop at the back to help pull them on and off . I’ve not tried them in the wet yet as amazingly it’s been hot and sunny at the moment.Well worth the money for the few weeks of the year we have warmer weather in the uk.

Really Nice boots

29 April 2025 by Paul S

I was surprised how comfortable these boots are, straight out of the box they were easy to wear and walk around in.
If you are looking for a short boot for summer and to be able to get around off the bike these are great.

Great lightweight waterproof shoes

26 April 2025 by Michael P

These Alpinestars Sektor shoes fit true to size and feel lightweight but still very protective around the ankle and toe areas. They needed a short break-in period but are comfortable both on and off the bike. Waterproofing works well for light rain, and the sole grip is excellent at stoplights. They are ideal for city commuting and short rides, but I would recommend a full boot for long-distance touring. Overall, a great choice if you want protection without feeling bulky.

Casual but functional boots

Great boots which are very comfy, yet still functional.
I can wear these when not on the bike but also keep my feet warm & protected when on the bike.

The most comfortable short boot

27 December 2023 by Tony B

This is my second pair as I have worn the first pair out they have lasted 80000 miles of riding and two bikes and two sets of laces with a fair bit of walking around too.
Great value for money and a great boot

Protection and style

12 October 2023 by Paul C

It was only ever going to be Alpinestars, I just love the styling and the way they put the boots together. I was going to buy the more casual looking one, but didn't like the fit. These boots fitted me perfectly, and feel much more protective than the short boot they are. The layers of material show a quality of build. Easy on and off and laces have a Velcro strap to hold the excess in place. Only gripe is a bit of discomfort around the ankles, which I am sure will reduce with more wear.

Comfy boots, but not waterproof

04 August 2023 by Gary P

First time buying short urban style boots. Bought half size bigger than usual and they fit a treat.
Really comfy on and off the bike.
Great for summer rides in the dry.
They are quite low at the back which is fine if you have long trousers otherwise water will run down the back of the leg and into the boot should it rain.
They did let in a bit of water across the front of the boots after riding for an hour in the rain but it was pretty crap weather.
Overall pleased with quality of the boots.
