Alpinestars SMX-6 V2 Gore-Tex Boots - Black

These are really comfy, that's why alpinestars are renowned .. probably.
The velcro fold-over closing is a little large for my taste, but you get used to it. Perhaps watch some video reviews to get an idea. But can't go wrong with the fit and the Gore-Tex though. I rode them in 23degrees C heat on a track day and my feet were warm but not hot and sweaty. Good socks help obviously

Great product. Comfortable, flexible, and dry.

I bought the Gore-Tex version of these boots to replace the Drystar ones I had previously which weren't waterproof. I ride all year in all weathers and find Goretex is the only truly waterproof kit.

I dont like how the boots look I much prefer sportier looking boots with sliders but wanted Goretex and a sporty style boot with good safety ratings which these are.

They are extremely hard to get on (and off!) but once on are comfortable and don't need any breaking in.

They fit securely and feel supportive but allow plenty of movement on the bike.

I found the sizing to be exactly the same as my usual shoe size.

Had the boots a few weeks now and can say are very comfortable. I'm normally a size 8 but alpinestar 8.5 and these fit like any other alpinestar boots. Been in a few down pours now and can say boots are waterproof and warm. I would highly recommend.

I wore these boots through a severe downpour and they kept my feet dry and didn't leak one bit. I had to go half a size up because of the waterproof membrane compared to my normal Alpinestars SMX-6 v2, which were not waterproof in the slightest and why I had to purchase the Drystar gore-tex version.

These boots have exceeded my expectations.

**Quality:**
Top-notch craftsmanship with durable, supple leather and impeccable stitching. They are built to last.

**Performance:**
Excellent protection with reinforced toe and ankle guards. Non-slip sole and great flexibility make riding effortless.

**Comfort:**
Plush interior padding reduces fatigue, and adjustable straps ensure a snug fit.

**Ventilation:**
Keeps feet cool during warm weather rides, enhancing comfort and hygiene.

**Aesthetic:**
Sleek design with a classic black finish makes them versatile.

Overall, a great investment for any rider seeking quality, performance, and style. These boots won't disappoint.

My V1 waterproof boot finally gave up and started leaking after 7 years of daily use. So it made sense to replace them with the V2.
I went for the Gortex version as the Drystar wasn't available in my size.
They are waterproof, they are comfortable, but I don't think they are as well built as the V1.
The V2 plastic heal protection is a lot softer than the V1 and deforms easily in comparison.
The zips also seem to be slightly cheaper in quality, but functional.
I have found that water gets under the velcro and sits on the fabric underneath, so it's important to make sure you press it together properly to ensure the stay water tight.
All in all, a good boot, but not as good as the V1.

After my Sidi goretex boots finally fell apart after 15 years of use(5/5!) I shopped around for a replacement pair and after trying lots of makes of boots (and different price) I decided on these Alpinestars.
Good fit after a short breaking in period, comfortable. I have worn them in a couple of heavy showers and no leaks! These look like a race boot as opposed to touring boots which I prefer but without the hassle of "inner boots" which is better for every day riding. Good price, no complaints 5/5!

Bought as a replacement of my older waterproof pair. They are very warm, comfortable and nice to ride in. They do need breaking in, but regardless are comfortable. Good improvement of protection around the ankles. Not used in torrential rain, however so far have been waterproof. Reasonably priced also. Do recommend these

This is the second pair of these boots I have purchased, for everyday summer riding these are very good. Not really winter boots so shower proof will do which these are. Recommended if this is what you want, great delivery from SBS.

Yet to find a pair of waterproof boots that SBS sells as purchased about 10 pairs now and none are waterproof.

I've had these boots for over a year and they are great. They fit me like a pair of slippers. I ride to work in these and keep them on in the office for over 8 hours and still feel comfortable when I get home. They've stayed completely water proof and believe me I've tested them, I live in Scotland. Not cheap but I would highly recommend these if you want a boot which you can rely on for years.

Reasonably priced for the quality, very light, comfortable from the word go (need a bit of breaking in but usable straight away), seem warm. Strangely enough it hasn't rained yet, assuming they prove to be waterproof then I thoroughly recommend.

So far so good. Very comfortable. So far they are waterproof but early days. Had Richa boots previously and they were not waterproof after a few months, so avoid them and buy these.

Had SMX 5's previously which lasted very well. These seem a good quality product and breath well being goretex. Early days but tested 100% waterproof so far.
