【alpinestars】TECH3 Boots [TEC3 Boots] Review
I was attracted by the look of Parenthesis.
Was the one you received as per Image?
Yes, the product was just as in the Image, with its strange color scheme and design.
Mountain playmates in Black and Color.:I was wearing Gray Boots and was attracted to the Colorful color scheme.
[How did you feel about the Fit?
Since this is basically an overseas product, the flat part of the foot (?) is designed to be narrower. It may be safer to purchase a slightly larger size than the size of shoes for Japanese people that you usually wear, since the insoles can be adjusted for a larger size. If you buy a tight size, it will be hard to keep wearing them for a long time, so it would be best to try them on at a motorcycle store if possible.
How was your experience with it?
The product description section states "Active in a wide range of activities, from touring to off-road." The front side feels like it digs into your ankle until you get used to wearing them, and it will hurt if you wear them for a long time. If you apply Mink oiletc. and wear them for a long time, you will get used to them gradually.
Furthermore, since the Sole is a flat type, when walking on a dirt slope in a forest road, the bite to the road surface is not good, and training is necessary (it may become a state of MoonWalk before you get used to it), but by the time your ankle becomes soft, you will get used to it.
Other than that, Protection is a sufficient Boots for forest roads and mountain fun.
[Was there anything that disappointed you?
Above. How was your experience with it? As I mentioned in the "Boots" section, I don't think Boots are very gentle for beginners until they get used to wearing them (they are easy enough to wear if you keep wearing them). (If you keep wearing them and get used to them, they will be easy enough to wear.)
If forest roads and Trekking are Main, ED-PRO or COMP-X may be better (this is just my personal opinion, so please take it as one of the references).

How did it compare to other products?
This is also true above, and if you often fall or walk with the assistance of friends in mountain play, you may want to choose ED-PRO or COMP-X.

Comfortable to wear.
Design is cool!
Good ease of putting on and taking off.
Large sturdy even for wide feet. (It is about the width of EEE of New Balance)
Since there is a firm Magic tape at the entrance of the Boots, you should apply the Magic tape by leaning forward with your shin firmly against the Boots, and then latch the Boots!

For beginners.
I bought this for my introduction to Off-road.
I was not sure about Enduro, but it was cheaper.
I made the fit a little tighter.
There's enough room for socks.

It fits.
I used off-road boots, which are easier than these.
I borrowed these Boots from a friend of mine that fit the size of my feet and they fit so well that I decided to buy them.
I won't mention the Brand name, but the previous ones were heavy and not easy to get around, but this one has no problem with Pedal operation, and the toe is not thick enough to get through Pedal easily. However, it may be a little weak if you get a strong impact on the toe.

The light weight is GOOD!
I'm using it for MOTARD. The advantage of the largest is that it is light & Cost. Also, the length of the shin is lower than tech7 or 10, so I can use it with the leather suit. Matching is also good. buckle was also hard to remove the old MODEL, but this AlpineStar is a dramatic improvement over the MODEL. It's perfect from. Repair the areas that rub against the road surface with Shoe goo on a regular basis. However, if you're going to use it with Motocross, the TECH3 is scary. It doesn't feel wrapped up/protected enough. View detail
