For those who want to wear Casual Racing boots without the expectation of ventilation performance.
When I switched to ZX-6R, I was looking for a pair of riding shoes for the summer to match the SS series, and this was the only one I could find with interchangeable toe sliders.
The color was chosen to match the body color with White.
Although it is a type with a punching leather section, even when the temperature is a little below 20℃, the SS Riding position does not allow good ventilation, and I think it will be a little stuffy in midsummer.
In other words, I feel like I can wear them all year round except in the middle of winter.
However, compared to the SMX-6 V2 BOOT, they are made well enough to be called short length Riding boots, so you have a strong sense of security!
I don't feel that Velcro has much of an effect on comfort whether I loosen or tighten it, and I wonder if it's almost a decoration.
As for the size, I am EU42 (36.5cm) for Alpinestars shoes and it feels good, but I recommend you to try them on if you are buying them for the first time.
I tried to coordinate it with my Riding Pants for your reference.
Boots in type leather pants would also work, but I don't think anyone would do that (laughs).

For winter use only
As may be the case with some high-end products such as GORE-TEX, even waterproof material is not a waterproof material. "Steam resistant." However, the steam will be removed after some time.
When it gets reasonably warm in spring or fall, it still gets stuffy. Therefore, I wear RIDEKNIT in those seasons. In summer, I can't use it at all. On the other hand, in winter, I can wear RIDEKNIT without getting stuffy and my feet don't get cold. It might be better to think of them as windproof rather than breathable and waterproof.
Shoe laces can get caught if left in place, so they are tucked away inside the Magic tape's belt.

Design that never gets old
There is nothing special about the Inner, but the simple design is good. View detail
Unplanned purchase to match Alpinestars Jacket
I bought the RX-3Jacket, but was reluctant to buy it because the Chest Protector that often comes with Komine Jackets did not fit in it as it was (ugh).
I'm not sure about the protection, as I've never mocked it up, but it feels somewhat unassuring. It is comfortable to wear.
The Large size is too Exactly and I thought I made a mistake in the size at first. I thought I got the size wrong at first.

First time purchase
The width is a little tight!
Will they fit in after a few wears?

It wasn't bad.
I had been using SP-8 for many years and it was getting tired, so I decided to buy SP-8 next time.
Minor changes have been made to the design, etc., and a wrist-stopping band has been added for a more fit feel.
It was a good impression.
… but the stitching on the index finger of the Right hand is distorted and the sensitivity of the phone Touch is significantly poor, so I asked for a replacement.
I think the sewing in this area is better handled in the old version.
The product was found to be defective, but there was no replacement in stock, so it was returned Gold.
Perhaps it is an individual difference, but it is unfortunate.

Not suitable for severe cold weather
As the name of the product suggests, it was purchased to be used as an intermediate garment.
The texture is a thin fabric like Workman's Soft shellParka with a raised backing.
It is thin and stretchy, so it is comfortable and eases the feeling of bulkiness, but it has almost no windproofing, so it seems harsh to use in severe cold weather.
When folded up, it is about the size of a square Type 1L pet, so it is good for adjusting during cold and warm weather.
Size feeling:I selected M size with 178/65 of Large body size for domestic Jacket, and I think it is equivalent to domestic L size with just right Large size.

A little fancy.
I was using FOX RACING Bomber Gloves for summer gloves.
It was so worn out that I decided to replace it.
Bomber Gloves, the price seems to have gone up a lot, so I decided to go with this one, which is a little cheaper.
This is my first Alpinestars product, though,
As for the appearance, Quantity:Pair (for Left and Right) Asimen Birdoo and flashy,
I bought it because I thought the fluorescent color would match Motorcycle's insert color,
When it comes down to it, I sometimes find the color inserts in my field of vision while driving a bit depressing, I guess I'll get used to it.
As for the fit, the tip of the index finger is made of a different Material because it is compatible with smartphones!
The sewn part is on the inside, but I felt that the feeling of the sewn part hitting my fingers was not quite right.

These are normal Shoes for the price.
Suddenly, the most ideal Size and comfort shoes for me are Asics safety shoes….
I wear these shoes at work, but when I ride my motorcycle, I have to wear safety shoes all day long, or all my life, which is a bit heavy in many ways.
So I decided to take the plunge and buy the Alpinestars Shoes that I had been longing for. However, I was hesitant because they were too expensive for me, and then I found out about these shoes, which were in the lowest price range.
I wear 28 cm Asics safety shoes and 29 cm Nike, Adidas, and other foreign manufacturers' products, and I have so-called Greek flat feet. I have already experienced that the width of the shoes made by ITALIANManufacturer is quite narrow in the past, so I bought 28.5cm size shoes.
The actual size was about the length and width of a 28cm shoe. The actual size was about the same length and width as a 28cm shoe.
The shoes are made for motorcycles, so they have a firm and rigid feel, and the ShiftPad on the toe ensures that there will be no pain.
But the overall evaluation is a bit disappointing.
It is not Waterproof but very steamy.
The Velcro on the top is modeled after RetroBasketBallShoes, but it is so long that even I, weighing close to 80 kg, cannot adjust the position. I think the only people who can use this Velcro are PRO wrestlers or sumo wrestlers.
The removable Insole is really "Just a board." The shoes are so cheaply made that one wonders if the Manufacturer originated from a mountaineering shoe manufacturer. (In addition, the size of the Insole and the Shoes are not the same, and there is a slight difference in the toe in the Shoes.)
I wrote something nasty, but I felt that almost half of the price is a Brand fee, although the Shoes are nice and Simple looking at a quick glance.
If you are willing to pay this Gold amount, you can use another Manufacturer.
Next time I would like to purchase Shoes in a slightly higher price range.

Rough material and waterproof finish that does not repel water
I bought it because of its good design and ventilation function. I did not try it on, just the picture, and the size was XL based on the description. I imagine that it was made with a little room to spare because it is compatible with the newly developed and released AirProtector. I think it is Merit because you can put a lot of clothes inside in winter. The fabric material is stiffer than it looks in the picture. I can't help it because I think it is safe because it is made of Material that is resistant to breakage. The back and chest are Protector (sold separately). (Expensive) I thought I would wear it casually and lightly when touring, but it was surprisingly heavy and stiff on my shoulders. It is lighter than Dainese leather jacket, but it is beyond my imagination. The zipper has to be tightened tightly to prevent water from getting in. The material seems to be Waterproof, but the water repellency is almost Zero, so when it rains, water spreads over the surface of the fabric and lightly soaks through the gaps between the zippers. It is true that water does not directly enter through the fabric, but the surface of the fabric gets wet in a nasty way, so it is better to use a water-repellent spray. I think it is better to use water-repellent spray. As I mentioned above, it is an exact size in winter if you wear a down or parka inside. If it is hot, you can make the Intake from the arms and the front zipper part Air Intake, and if you release the rear air exit, it will be cooler. I felt that the temperature is 30 degrees Celsius even if I wear a thin inner layer and use the ventilation function.
I wrote a lot of things, but if you like Design, it's good that you don't CUB everywhere you go because not many other people wear it. right, left, or I'm a Kushini? It won't be like that.

Useful Items
This is a common side porch, but it is made by Alpinestars. This is a long-awaited item for fellow alpha fans!
The ItalianStylish design goes without saying, but the functionality and two-point retention keep it at a high level, with the ability to hold a long wallet securely.
However, as usual with alpha products, the threads are frayed, Velcro is used in many cases, and the belt for the Waist is twisted, so the functionality and cost performance are not at all comparable to those of domestic manufacturers in the same price range.
I think this is a product to be bought by Design, so be careful there.

It is a quintessential Brand product.
I'm usually a 26.5 and these were just right for me at 27.0. They are expensive and the shape and comfort are outstanding.
However, the feeling of using the Magic band is not good balance and it takes time to put it on and take it off each time, but I don't mind if the string is normally held by the band.
Breathability should not be expected, so Knit may be a good choice for summer use.

I like the Casual design, but the place where the Shift Pedal hits the back of the Left foot is fraying quickly. View detail
No real smart phone Touch available.
The phone Touch is very unresponsive.
The index finger is very unresponsive except on the side of the thumb, so although it sometimes responds with the tip of the finger or the belly of the finger, it cannot be operated as expected. It is almost always a misoperation.
I think this is unique to this product as it works normally with other Alpinestars gloves.
I am satisfied with the fit and design.

Size is Small.
As mentioned in the title, it is small in size.
However, in my case, I am not happy with the fact that the Small fingers have about 1 cm extra.
The fit is tight, but I expect it to get more comfortable in my hand every time I use it.
The design is AlpineStar, which I think is cool.

Fancy for an old man.
It was more flashy than I had expected, and I thought it would be more suitable for touring than for everyday use. View detail
The phone is not Pinch operable!
[For smartphones]
The index finger has a material for touch screen and can be used for smartphone operation.
When I received the product and tried it on to check the feel of the phone, I found that Pinch In/Out was not working.
I noticed that I can't do it. (I don't have a phone compatible Material on my thumb)
I am sorry but I had to return it because it was free to return.
I use GoogleMap a lot for touring, so not being able to PinchOut is a problem.
You should check the operation of the application you plan to use before ordering.
The design is Simple and Parenthesis is good, but ….

That's about it
I wanted a Leg Back large enough to hold a Small object size, so I chose this one! 。 It is good for cold weather only (when it gets warmer, the thighs of the installation area will definitely sweat) and for winter only (distance without TouringBack) when there is less rain. View detail
Boots and Brand together.
I purchased my first pair of MX Socks, which I had been skeptical that I really needed in my off-road gear. I had been using short socks from the appropriate for-sports brand for a long time, but I decided to buy a new pair of Boots. (Alpinestars Tech7 Enduro) I bought a pair of socks to try them on. I actually tried them on when they arrived, and they felt like normal long socks. I was wondering if there was anything more I could get for such a reasonable price. But since they were reasonably priced, I thought, "What more can I get? I observed that the socks were ribbed in some places and that the spout was narrowed, so they seemed to be resistant to rubbing off during driving. I am looking forward to seeing how well it adheres to Boots when I wear it in the future. The colors are also my favorite, so I'm glad.... But I think the price is a bit steep for socks...

A good amount of storage space
[How is it used?
For Touring and other peripheral applications
Was the one you received as per Image?
Yes.
How was your experience with it?
I thought it would be nice to have a storage Space with a Zipper on the inside storage.
I think the Long Wallet can fit at least 3
I am glad I bought this one because Shoulder back makes my shoulders hurt.
It is also easy to take out even with the Helmet on!
[Points to note]
Since the storage capacity is not that great, it can only hold enough supplies to run around the neighborhood.
How did it compare to other products?
It was made by Alpinestars, so I didn't consider anything else.

I wish there was a VERSION with LARGE storage capacity and an inside zipper.
