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.

Slightly select Situation
It is like a low-priced OffBoots that is short with ankle protection. The ankle movement is stiff because they do not have the hybrid construction of the higher-end models, so first-time OffBoots wearers may be surprised. However, the quality is good both inside and outside.
I think you will be satisfied if you do not use it to run for a whole day, if you want to enter FlatDirt, and if you want to avoid taking on and off Full sizeOffBoots because they are troublesome.
The sizing is quite narrow and low in the instep, and I'm a size B. I think it's average for AlpineStar.

Comfortable boots. JP sizing wrong
I wear 27.5cm shoes and ordered the size 10 (29cm) boots. They fit perfectly, actually a little tight on my big toe. The padding is great compared to my previous boots (XPD XP-3S size 45 (28.5cm)) and the grip on the bottom is nice as well. The velcro is on the wrong side though. The "hook" are on the outside, so if you don't close the boot all the way it gets stuck on your sock. The buckles work great. The boot is taller than I expected for a "low" boot, but protects the shin well. The ankle is very stiff and makes it difficult to shift my sports bike. I'm sure it will break in with time.

One size fits all
Usually wear 25.5cm (US7) 26.5cm where (US8) to purchase Exactly!
Sale is being held at Timing, where I found it.
This Boots was also a very good deal as it was a qualifying product.
When I got it and started riding it, it was hard and I couldn't get the Shift controls to work, but after riding it around for half a day, I got used to it.
Once you get used to them, the ankles are soft and maneuverable, but the protection seems to be the same as boots for road use, so I think they're good for on roadMain touring or flat forest roads with an off-road vehicle.
I would like to purchase again when White or White/Black comes out.

![TECH3 Boots [TEC3 Boots]](https://img.webike-cdn.net/catalogue/images/40914/2013018_1053_TS.jpg)
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.

The deciding factor in the purchase
It was love at first sight because it was on Sale at the time of purchase and very Reasonable and the flashy colors.
【Included Parts:presence or absence】.
There was only one pair of Boots and no Included Parts:.
[Notes]
This is also what I wrote above.
[Opinions and requests to Manufacturer
It would be nice to see a VERSION of the Sole section suitable for Trekking with this appearance.

For forest road
It is a replacement from GAERNE.
I wore them for the first time and they might be harder to handle than GAERNE.
I will wear them down so that they will fit my feet as soon as possible.

Enduro boots
This is a replacement for the same TECE7EnduroMODEL. I have to choose this MODEL because my feet are small, but this Boots
I am satisfied with the product. The only thing I would say is that the Sole is the first thing to go bad, so if I could replace the Sole, I would be able to use it for a longer time.
Even though Boots would be available. I think, it is not cheap.

Used for forest road and course driving
I was a GAERNE guy for off-road boots, but I wanted to try Alpine boots.
The Alpinestars Off-road boots have a narrow calf and a thicker interior for a better fit and protection, and the EDSole is slippery on rocks and Muddy.
In the same price range, in terms of hardness, the (hard) AlpineTEC3ED←CYPHERJ←EDPRO (soft)
Slipperiness of Sole (Slippery) EDPRO←AlpineTEC3ED←CYPHERJ
Compared to the MXBoots of the upper MODEL, the ankle is soft and easy to move and walk, so there was no problem.
I chose it for its thick interior fit and good protection.
I didn't feel any discomfort even with three Belt stops.
It was a good buy for my first pair of Alpine off-road boots because the price was lower than the higher model.

Generally, I'm satisfied
I felt that the GAERNEGRearct was a little heavy, so I bought a lighter AlpineTEC7 for Enduro.
It's definitely lighter and more comfortable and soft than the former.
The long-awaited Waterproof is also much better than the former, I think it's not completely Waterproof, but the former even got my socks wet when running in a stream, but the latter didn't get wet at all and was used in races with streams from 5cm to 15cm deep.
