Comfortable to wear all day
13 Aug 2026 by Chris G
I was looking for a sporty trainer style boot but not a skater style like al the rest. Something that can be worn all day that doesn't feel or look like a motorcycle boot and these are great. My on negative and it's nit picking is the lace is long so you need to tuck it out the way so not to get it caught on the footpegs, I know from experience ?. They do have a little velcro tab on the lace to keep them in place so no issues so far. Fit is true to size im 8.5 in most brands and these fit perfectly.

Good alround.

Good quality, very comfy and light. Yet to see how they handle a rainy ride though. Generally a size 10 in boots, but had to get 11 to fit?

Great fit

I like these boots a lot. Seem extremely well made, good level of ankle support. Non-standard lacing mechanism but it works well making the boots easy to put on and take off.

Very comfortable motorcycle ankle boots
13 Jul 2026 by Neil
Bought a pair of these after reading other positive reviews. Boots appear well made, and feel extremely comfortable to wear right from the off. Could easily be used as walking boots as well. Elastic lace fastenings are a bit fiddly, and obviously being ankle boots they don't offer the same level of protection as a full length boot - but that's just the trade-off you make

Super comfy, safe & stylish

Bought these to replace a pair of Richa short boots. As with most Alpinestars products, these are really well made, look great and are super comfy. They give much better protection to the ankle area than most and are great to walk in off the bike. Highly recommended.

Effective
08 May 2026 by Matthew
Needed a comfy pair of trainer like motorbike boots and read the reviews on these. Though why not since they had a discount on them. Definitely better than expected. Light on the feet, easy to get on and off. Lace method is quick and easy and gives tight fit. Waterproof and breathable. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a great pair of boots.
