Mary#17 Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 I bought these earlier this year as I don't like wearing my full boots all the time anymore but wanted some better protection on longer rides. I feel these boots are a nice balance. They offer much of same protection as the full on race boots in a shorty. Toe sliders. Great ankle protection and so on. They are really easy to get on and off. Love the zipper entry. They are really quite comfortable. I've done a 250 mile ride with them and my feet felt great. Easy to walk around in and a decent amount of ventilation although they do offer an "air" version but I wanted something that could be used for more than the summer. Very happy with the purchase. Alpinestars S-MX 1 Boots BlackFeatures: Upper constructed from lightweight microfiber. Breathable mesh inserts and perforated side panel for enhanced ventilation. External TPU protection on the outer ankle. Foam backed, double density ankle protector on the medial side. External TPU shift pad, slider and heel counter. Reinforced toebox layered under the microfiber upper. Plush 3D mesh inner liner. Combination zipper and Velcro strap closure system. Outsole constructed with the same advanced rubber compound as the S-MX 5 Boot. Integrated shank in the sole for extra rigidity. Anatomically profiled EVA foam footbed.

conn-e-rot Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 I have these also very comfortable I may have the air version because they flow a lot of air can actually feel the air flow through the boot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omnislash16 Posted May 26, 2012 Report Share Posted May 26, 2012 Coincidentally I just came across these boots this morning and was thinking about going check them out. Thx for the review. I'm leaning more towards them now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
