【alpinestars】SMX-6 V2 BOOT [SMX-6 V2 Boots] Review
That was a good purchase
I decided to buy a pair of leather Boots from a Manufacturer because I have been wearing leather Boots for more than a decade and they don't fit in and hurt when I wear them.
The choice was made with safety in mind for touring at high speeds.
I was a candidate for GAERNE's G-MIDLAND and checked the size at a real store, but I wondered if it would not fit my ZX-25R when I tried it on. I tried on a pair here.
I bought it from WeBig because I really like the way it wraps around my feet.
My normal shoe size is 25.5, but 26.5 is very good.
It was the first time for me to wear such long boots, and I was worried that the brake and shift operation would be difficult. When I got off the motorcycle, I felt like I was wearing hard boots and it was a little bit difficult to walk.
I wish I had bought them sooner because I had been riding with a certain Manufacturer's leather Boots that hurt when I wore them and even became sore and numb when I rode, so I should have bought them sooner. I like them very much.

Lightweight and easy to walk in.
Usual Size 26.5cm, slightly high instep, 42 felt just right! 。 I don't find it hard to walk at all when I get off the Motorcycle and go for a walk at the touring destination. It is light and does not move stiffly.
However, it still takes some getting used to because the inner Velcro gets caught on the footpeg when waiting at traffic lights, etc. ^ ^ Especially for Fixed Type footpeg.

Easier to wear than expected
Used on GSX-R1000R.
No Circuit. Situation used is about 7:3 (mountain pass:urban area = 7:3).
This is the first time I am racing boots as I have not been to Circuit.
We chose this relatively affordable product because we felt that we did not need such a high-end product.
(Still quite pricey though …)
Before purchasing the product, I was worried that the inner fastener might feel uncomfortable when I hold it with my ankle, but my fears were unfounded when I actually used it.
As long as the Fastener and Velcro are securely fastened, there is no particular discomfort.
The tab of the fastener is Velcro, which prevents the fastener from slipping off.
This kind of ingenuity makes a very good impression.
Although it is positioned as an entry-level model among Alpinestars, it still includes safety features such as an ankle-twisting prevention mechanism, and can be used safely at least on public roads.
I was also concerned that the ankles might be stiff to move, but this was also not a problem for me personally from new.
If this bothers you, loosening the Velcro on the calf may make it better.
It looks like a Race ish as shown in the photo, but I think it can be worn with tight pants in the case of SS series.
Of course, I think the best solution is to use it with leather Pants.
If you ride a sports type motorbike and want to try racing boots, I think they are just right for you.
Also, saying that, shoes are consumable, so it would be good for Gen.
Personally, I'll be doing this next. (Kako's successor MODEL) I love it so much that I would probably buy a

Amazingly good
I bought the 27.5cm because they don't have 27cm, so I'm on the large side, but if I wear thick socks, I'll be fine. They are great! View detail
very good
I bought 27.5 cm because there is no 27 cm size in Europe and America, so it is a bit large. I'm very happy with them. The look is very good. View detail
