4/5

Best Design. bought Visual and the quality is good.

Was the one you received as per Image?
As shown in the image. The texture and the sense of quality are higher than those of other gloves, and it satisfies my desire for ownership.

[How did you feel about the Fit?
Just right. I am 5'5" tall, skinny with average size hands, and the L Size fits me perfectly.

How was your experience with it?
I have nothing to complain about. It has all the functions and the design is excellent.

[Was there anything that disappointed you?
Not particularly

What are the specs of the product, such as protector?
Protector on the back of the hand. general Circuit Gloves.

How did it compare to other products?
The texture of the leather is wonderful, soft from the beginning. The design is great, a must have for MotoGP and Yamaha fans.

Resin parts of overseas products deteriorate over time...

We have already confirmed the Fit feeling by trying it on beforehand. We chose this color because it is a little too flashy for city driving and for visibility from other vehicles. I had used Alpinestars' blobs in the past, but I have the impression that resin parts of overseas products generally deteriorate over time, so I purchased this product, which has fewer resin parts.

My first Leather suit

Was the one you received as per Image?
The design was very cool, and the details, etc., which were hard to see in the pictures, were perfect.

[How did you feel about the Fit?
My height and weight (161cm 65kg) Unfortunately, then, probably none of the Sizes were going to be a Just fit.

SmallestSize (46~48) The length is good, but it is too tight and the Large size is too small. (50~52) While the "M" suit was roomy, the length did not fit well, and I had to make some adjustments to get a satisfactory fit. It also felt much heavier than other leather suits I usually wear, such as Bellick's.

How was your experience with it?
Sorry, not used.

[Was there anything that disappointed you?
It was heavier than I thought it would be. Also, it looks difficult for my thick legs and short feet,
Is a foreign skeleton still suitable?

What are the specs of the product, such as protector?
It felt quite Large.

How did it compare to other products?
It seemed to be more luxurious than Belic and others. View detail

STATED AIR GLOVE [Stayed Air Gloves]

STATED AIR GLOVE [Stayed Air Gloves]

4/5

The actual product is quite Blue.

Alpine's gloves have always been a just size L for most models, but in the last year or so, the models for city riding and touring have been made with longer fingers, so there is a little extra room at the tips of the fingers.
After all, it is necessary to try on the clothes after all.

But as expected of Alpine, the details are well done, and Parenthesis is great.
Also, it looks almost White in the picture, but it is quite Blue in person. It looks like a very faded Jeans color.

Overall, I'm happy with it View detail

More vibration transmission from Pedal

Was the one you received as per Image?
Except for the tip and Protector part, they are soft and not tiring to wear.
I didn't mind getting off the Motorcycle and walking around.
I have heard that the zipper is hard, but I had no particular difficulty when putting on and taking off the shoes, so I think it should not be a problem unless you are very inefficient.

[How did you feel about the Fit?
My normal shoes are 27.5 and the same size 27.5 (43) fit perfectly.
The toe was just a little extra and the width was just right besides. （I thought they would be too narrow.)
The heel, ankle, and ankle area feel soft and wrapped on the inside.
I used to wear Alpinestars FASTER 3, but even though the size was Exactly, the toes were not thick enough and my thumbnail was held down, causing pain when I wore them for a long time, but these had enough space and did not hurt.

How was your experience with it?
This is a comparison with Alpinestars' FASTER 3.
The soles seem to be a little thicker than usual. (Knee grip position is just a little bit higher than usual. (Knee grip position is just a little bit higher than usual.)
Grip power has definitely increased and I can move my body with ease. (Although FASTER 3 also grips well.)
If you are running, you can feel the wind around your ankles. (Other than that, they are not mesh, so they are the same as regular shoes.)
It is easy to move the ankle, and it is easy to do Rear brake and Shift change.
The vibration of the Engine transmitted from the Pedal comes directly to my feet. It usually makes my feet numb. (I guess I have to use cushiony insoles or socks to prevent this.)
Motorcycle with little vibration would not be a problem.

[Was there anything that disappointed you?
The Elastic band like thing on the back of the foot looks a little bit yucky. It looks like it will deteriorate if exposed to sunlight for a long time.

What are the specs of the product, such as protector?
I think almost all of them are like Protector. It seems to be the first problem for driving on public roads.
The inside is soft and comfortable without feeling Protector. View detail

Wrist is tight when putting it on.

I saw in the Review that it is 195mm from wrist to middle finger, so I decided to go with M Size.
It is Exactly if you fit it, but it is narrow when you fit it….
It's fine for OffRace, but for Touring it's a hassle every time.
So I stretched it with a water bottle as shown in the picture! I'm glad I was able to fit it a little easier.
Also, the fabric is quite thin, so it is cold when the temperature is a little low.
I use Soar SpectrumGloves, so I thought they would be the same, but they are totally thin.
Soar is peeling off the Rubber of Protect, but it is firmly attached as expected of Alpinestars! View detail

4/5

I'm not sure if there are any features beyond the information I can see …….

It's nice and cool in an external knee dresser, even if it's not running.

Good point that Parenthesis is better than Komine. The protection performance is sufficient to the extent that it does not shift.
It is not a Slider and does not slide around, so I think it will last a long time.
The color of Logo can be scraped off by just putting it in a shelf or something messy, so if you don't want Logo to stand out, you could just scrap off the paint.

Please use it as a sense of security when playing in a neighborhood or at low speed for a little practice that is not enough to use dedicated Pants.
It is also useful for kneeling in Asphalt or gravel parking lots. View detail

Racing image's strong GlobalBrand is also available in the city!

Alpinestars is an Italian brand that boasts a top class wear rate in the field of 2-wheeled racing such as MotoGP, as well as in the field of 4-wheeled racing such as F1. I think that this product has realized the comfort of wearing it in the city. I am 174cm tall and have a sturdy body shape, but I have the impression that the size is a little roomy. I think it is good because I have no problem when I ride with emphasis on comfort. View detail

4/5

It was easy to use, even for beginners.

[How is it used?
I bought a new one to run EnduroCourse at Narita MX Park.
I am new to Off-road and have only been to the Off-road Village once before.
I remember that the Boots at that time was O'Neil, but I no longer remember how it felt to use it.
I was looking for a good priced boot for beginners and was advised that Alpinestars' TEC5 would be a good choice.
Also, I am a motorcyclist whose main focus is on circuits, and I use Alpinestars for my boots, which was also a major reason for my choice of boots this time.


Was the one you received as per Image?
I felt that they were solid Boots as well as On road boots.
I didn't know how far to tighten the buckle adjustment, so I tightened it solidly for the time being.
How did you feel when you first put on Boots? "Not so tough, are you?" It was (laughs)
I had compared it to on road boots, but I wondered if it was possible to shift shift with this kind of boots, and if I could feel that I was stepping on the rear brake. I wondered if I could change the shift like this and if I could feel the rear brake being stepped on.

How was your experience with it?
After actually using it, I felt that I could move it more than I thought I could. Also, I ended up falling a lot.
I am glad I bought a solid Boots.
Once my foot got caught under the Motorcycle while going downhill, and if it had been a cheap one, I would have been injured.
As for the sole, it is an MXBoots, so it may not be as slippery as Enduro boots.
I have included a picture of Sole for your reference.
I didn't feel that I was slipping too much! I didn't feel that it was too slippery, but there were a few times when I slipped a few times on Course and couldn't stand on my feet.

[Points to note]
Size feeling, but I think it should be the same as the usual SneakersSize.
I am usually 26.5cm, so I chose size 8.
On road boots are 42Size (26.5cm).
If you want to wear tight, 41 is fine, but you can make some adjustments with Inner Sole, etc,
I thought the same Size as usual would be fine.
If you are really concerned about it, though, you should try it on first.

How did it compare to other products?
I think Boots is more maneuverable than O'Neil. View detail

You don't have to be a Rider!

Review because I was having trouble finding a Review in the middle of the day.

I have several AlpineStars Jackets and purchased this Parka because the NUCLEON chest and back are compatible with this Parka and Protector compatible Parkas are rare.
As for the size, I wear a L regardless of Asian or European size.
AsianFit has a good style, but I have the impression that it is becoming smaller and smaller every year.
This parka is also introduced on YouTube by MotorcycleShop overseas (Overseas Size).
Many said they would prefer One sizeLarge size.
This parka is AsianSpec. I also inquired with Mr. Webig, and based on the answers I received, I decided to go with One size UP. As a result, it was a good decision to choose XL of one size up!
The Protector on the chest and back gives a nice look, and the Asian design keeps the Silhouette in place!
I wanted a lightweight, loose-fitting garment and purchased it because I needed a protector, so I went up one size and got a Large!
Perhaps if it had been an Asian L, the length would have been too short and awkward, and the Protector would have been too tight-fitting.
It is not windproof and is not meant to be worn in winter, but we recommend one size up if you want to wear it loose-fitting!
The fabric is thick and not wearable in the hot summer sun, but I'm glad I bought it.

Evolution!

I had been wearing Tech3s for about 10 years and decided to buy new Boots due to a ripped Buckle.
I bought a Tech5 in a color like Doraemon. I like it very much because it is a rare color.
I tried them on right away and they are just the right amount of softness and the size is just right. (26.5cm) The same size was perfect.
The buckle fastening method has evolved. The previous boots had to be removed forcefully, but the structure has been changed to make it easier to remove the buckle.
I was too tired to take them off after a ride, but with these Boots I was able to take them off right away.
I plan to stay with these Boots for a long time until they break too. View detail

I think it's good.

The unevenness of the sole is Large, so there is a sense of security even if you step on a Small stone that you missed when you stopped. Suitable for city driving and light touring.
I think it can be used in 3Season. View detail

best in spring and autumn

I was looking for a new winter coat, and I considered T-GP and S-TP, and tried them on, but they were very tight when I put on Inner and bent my arms or rode in a riding position, so I decided not to buy them. On the other hand, this SMX has moderate elasticity and I decided to buy it immediately. The Velcro around the neck is a minus point, but it is one of the products I am glad I bought. View detail

I knew it was too big.

I bought Red&Black to match my Gayety Red.
It matches well with the color of the car body, but it is too big and I was worried about where to put it.
Although I was aware of the size before I purchased the product, I regret that it was still too big. View detail

Maybe for spring and summer.

I bought it because it was a relatively low price for an Alpinestars product. I thought it was for winter because it was a winter sale item, but the fabric is thin and mesh material, so I will use it in spring and summer. The size seems smaller than other manufacturers, but I have no problem with it because of its elasticity. If you are worried about the tightness, I think you should choose 1 Size Large. View detail

Satisfied as summer goods

I've always wondered why it's called Jagner, even though it reads like Jaguar Notebook.
Short length socks will probably make you look like a dirty hair on your legs from the car behind you. Shoes of short type do not fit either.
Longer Socks and SneakersType Shoes would be most appropriate when wearing these Pants.
The mesh allows air to pass through, but a motorcycle with a large engine displacement volume will also pick up engine exhaust heat from below the knees.
I have a lot to complain about, but I am satisfied with the performance and build quality of the product due to its high worldwide share. View detail

Inner available

My normal foot size is 25.5cm, but Inner is tight.
I decided to go with 26cm because of the information that I had received.

It was correct and Just size.

I use it in Circuit and it fell over once.
I didn't get hurt when my leg was pinched.

Thank you

The Inner string is thin and seems to break.
I would like to use it with care.

It is rather Fit to the foot. Especially for breaking in.
It does not seem necessary. View detail

Hard at first, but it takes time to adjust.

[How is it used?
Commuting (except summer)
Was the one you received as per Image?
Just like the image!
How was your experience with it?
At first, the Large was hard, but after about 3 months of use (2 hours a day) for commuting, it became accustomed and had a good hardness.
Waterproof function is good!
[Points to note]
The width is narrow. I decided to go with a size 1cm larger than the standard 4E (mountaineering shoes). I was still narrow at first, but after I got used to them, they became a little larger. 0.5cm larger would have been fine.
I own similar Boots from TCX, but I think AlpineStar seems to fit better (conforms to the shape of my foot). See photo
How did it compare to other products?
Functions etc. are the same as TCXBoots etc.
