Just the right performance and price
I have been using TEC10→TEC7 and Motocross boots, but this time I bought TEC5. I had been using TEC7 for a long time and was satisfied with it, but I had to replace it this time because it was put out to Garbage.
As far as I read the TEC5 instruction manual, the contents were almost the same as the TEC7, but the price is about 70%, so I was somewhat concerned. The moment I put them on, I felt no particular uneasiness, and I could feel that they were FirmlyHold around my ankles. Also, compared to the TEC7, I felt the lightness at the moment I held them. In fact, I was able to use it without any problem at all when I went around the MINICourse called Motocross Village.
Of course, the top-of-the-line MODEL has the performance to match its price, but for a HobbyRider like myself, who may or may not ride once a week, I think TEC5 would be sufficient.

The best off-road boots that have evolved in all directions
I have been using Alpinestars boots for over 20 years for both on-road and off-road boots. it is a European product, so they are generally slimmer and feel tighter, especially in the toes. Since this was a replacement from the old Tech 7, I bought one size larger. Compared to the old model, I have the impression that the new MODEL is softer in comfort. The buckle is also easier to operate and wear. Also, the weight has been lightened? I haven't worn Tech 7 recently because I seldom do off-road riding anymore, but if you don't maintain them, they will become hard to operate. View detail
Easy to move the legs and nice Size feel.
My normal shoes are 26cm, but I bought the 27cm ones after trying them on.
Combined with medium-heavy socks for mountaineering, the Size is just right for both width and toe.
I use it during forest road touring.
I don't feel Stress when I walk.
It can be operated without raising the Shift Pedal position.
I fell once and fell dragging the outside of Boots.
At that time, Buckle's Parts cracked.
I guess this area is plastic, but it was not a problem for Buckle's function.

Present to Partner
Partner wanted to enjoy Off-road more, so he was excited to procure a new one.
I really wanted to buy GAERNE, but I couldn't find this size in any brand including GAERNE. Although there is some reluctance, we were able to suppress a valuable item.
Was the one you received as per Image?
The overall shape is more rounded than the large-size ones. It feels a little heavier than it looks.
[How did you feel about the Fit?
Partner's foot size is 25.5cm, so this is One size Large. When we put them on, there is a little room, but there seems to be no problem as it is within the margin of error.
How was your experience with it?
The first time I tried OffBoots, it was hard and confusing for everyone, and the same with Partner. You will get used to it if you use it.
The surface is smooth in many areas and seems easy to wash.
[Was there anything that disappointed you?
None in particular
How did it compare to other products?
I hear that the durability is inferior to GAERNE, but that will be known after 1-2 years.

25.5cm, but I bought 27cm's.
I purchased the Large size and I have no problem at all using it because it is fastened with 4 buckles.
It was hard to shift at first, but after about a week I got used to the Large size. This is my first pair of Motocross boots, so I have nothing to compare them to, but they are very firm, so I feel very secure.
I bought it because of the way it looks, but I am satisfied with Large.
The only thing I would like to see improved is that it creaks when you walk on it, although I guess that can't be helped.
I can't wait to go touring in the woods wearing these!

comfortable to wear
I usually use it on forest roads.
The advanced MODEL for Motocross is too Solidly to move my feet.
Something with this amount of flexibility is just right.
You can walk in the woods, walk in the stores you stop at, and walk without any inconvenience.
The Shift operation is also easy to use and does not make operation extremely difficult.
I can recommend it

25.5 but I bought 27's.
This is my first time riding a MotocrossMotorcycle so I bought Boots first.
I chose a large size, but it was no problem at all.
It is quite safe because it is FirmlyHold.
However, it had been a while since I rode a motorcycle and I was not used to boots, so it was hard for me to shift gears for a while.
I have been wearing these Boots for about 10 days (10 minutes commute) and I feel like I am getting used to the Large size.
I am looking forward to going there as I have not been able to go to the forest road yet.

Is good
It is solidly built, so the feeling of being protected is high.
Instead, the ankle will not be able to move, so it takes some getting used to, such as Shift operation.
It is a little expensive, but it can be used for a long time and can prevent injuries.

The TECH7 of my dreams
StillMartin→RG→Sinisalo→TEC3→TEC7
I bought my fifth pair of 7's because the sole of my TEC 3's that I had worn for 13 years was worn out. I bought my fifth pair of 7's because they were getting worn out.
My usual sneakers are 26cm, but I have high instep feet, so TEC3 is US size 8, TEC 7 is a 9 (27.5cm). The overall length was almost the same.
Particularly good points
With the Pipod System, my ankle joints have been working well since new, and I can brake, shift, and walk with ease.
Others
I wish there was a white EnduroMODEL.

Looks parenthesis good and feels good.
The design is good and I like it.
However, once you get used to them, they make a creaking sound every time you walk, which can be embarrassing when you're out touring.
Others like it a lot.

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's great!
Was the one you received as per Image?
I really don't have any Ladies, so I looked around for my first Off-road experience and found the Kids 24.5cm!
[How did you feel about the Fit?
I was worried because it was Kids size, but when I received it and put it on, it was fine!
How was your experience with it?
It was my first time wearing Off-road boots, so walking was awkward at first, but the more I rode, the fitter I got!

Recommendations for the first OffBoots
There is the thing that it is Off-road boots for the first time in my life, and the impression which I put on at first received Image considerably tight, but when I actually put it on because I had the opportunity to put on other Off-road boots, there was considerably room, and I knew afterwards that it was Boots of the soft category. In fact, because there was an opportunity to run the OffRoad course, it also serves as an endurance test (?) I had a lot of falls, but I was able to finish without getting injured. However, if you go to a harder course such as EnduroCourse, this softness can not be thrown away …… View detail

It's a preference.
This is my fifth pair of FootWears along with Riding shoes.
When I look at the impressions, I have chosen the Large size for leather products that I cannot try on because the comments on the Small size are scattered.
The Sole itself is made to be slightly large, so OffBoots should anticipate that the skin will grow if the Size setting is correct.
OnBoots (SUPERTECR) was tried on at KUSHITANI and purchased the daily Size, but when actually used, the toes play.
For the convenience of the Size setting, I chose the Large size, so the toes play and the feel of the brake is not good.
Because there is a buckle, the fit above the ankle is good and it is easy to hold the car body, and the feeling of being protected is high.
Pedal positioning and breaking-in is necessary, but it has enough range of motion to allow pedal operation, so overall it has become my favorite item.
Cons of Alpinestars, Velcro is still not long lasting feeling.

As expected for gsAdventure
This is a set up for Revit's OffTruckJacket and Pants, which I bought exclusively for the TENERE700. The design is light and supple, but does not compromise on protection performance, so you can enjoy the TENERE700 to the fullest! View detail

First time
This is my first Off-road boots.
The feeling of being protected is not half bad. That's why it's hard. (This is still in the soft category.)
I haven't tried to operate the Shift with them on yet, but I guess I'll have to get used to it.
I usually wear a 27?5, but I ordered a 28?5 and it was the right decision.
One size might be better than the other.

That's Alpinestars.
I was looking for Boots for children and was considering various manufacturers' products, but unlike Boots for large people, there were no FOR JAPAN MODEL in stock for children and it took a long time to order and deliver.
Only DirtFreak's AlpineStar was available in the size I wanted, and it was priced as high as a Large, but I was determined to buy it.
Size 4 is selected, because usual shoes are 22-22.5, I chose a little Large fineness, but it seems that there is no problem (in the person's declaration, because the toe is hard)!
The details and functions of the Alpinestars are made to a very high level.
The buckle is also three, unlike the Large for people, and the child quickly got used to wearing it by himself.
Because it is handling DirtFreak, I think that repair and parts procurement are probably not a problem, and the part there is safe. I think that I can repair and use it even if it breaks.

Driving a car is a piece of cake - it feels just like Sneakers!
I bought this one in a different color to use when I went back to my wife's parents' house. I have a pair of Brown Boots that I use for everything from mountain attacks with Jimny to snow-covered trails and mountain play with Minimoto. These boots are waterproof, ankle-protective, non-slip sole, and can be ridden on any motorcycle. It's perfect for playing with my father-in-law's ToRacer. In addition, I can drive both cars and motorcycles when I play with my father-in-law in the mountain with buddies such as Jimny and LITTLE CUB or Jimny and wr250R, so I can do MachineChange.

It's not ostentatious, it's a perfect fit, and it's not uncomfortable to walk.
The plastic parts of my 40+ year old Off-road boots were rotting away, and the only other boots I had were On road boots and Shoes, and I didn't want to slip and fall on them in the woods, so I decided to buy Boots.
The Motocross boots will be too old to ride a motorcycle while I'm getting used to them, so I decided to buy a pair of Adventure-style Short or Middle boots that are waterproof and won't slip in the dirt.
The size was recommended to be 1 or 2 sizes up, so I decided to order 44 (27.5) because I usually wear 26.5EEE.
It's not a good fit with thin socks, but it's a good fit with thick socks like for Motocross.
The ankle is essential for pedal operation, but it cannot be moved when the buckle is fixed to the pitch. I keep the lower buckle in place with the pitch, and the upper buckle and Velcro loosened enough to allow for pedal operation. I didn't feel like I lost any stability because I loosened them.
Sole has not encountered any sloppy ground either, but so far I have not slipped while forest road touring.
Waterproofness is also unknown as we have not encountered any rainfall.

Also recommended for off-road driving on 4 wheels
The design of these boots is stylish enough to be used for everyday wear, and they are also waterproof when not on the bike, so I wear them a lot. We had a lot of snow the other day, so I took Jimny to the Gomayama SKY Tower and the Nozakogawa Satomichi Snow Mountain Festival. My wife and father-in-law also joined us for the Jimny Attack. I of course drove and explored with the Boots here. My wife has bates Tactical boots and my father-in-law has GAERNE gAdventure. The soft AdventureBoots are really Almighty. It is these boots that I play Slide in the snow mountain with the Gratra Big Boy that I put on the carrier car of Jimny of the father-in-law on the way. AdventureBoots are the best for play!
