RidersDiscount 2,543 Report post Posted March 26, 2019 CE-certified protection for your feet in a comfortable boot, from the last all the way the way up to the collar? “Yessir!” say the Alpinestars SMX-6 v2 boots. The v2 denotes that these are a second generation variant of the popular SMX-6 boots. Improvements were made all around, too. Starting with a new rubber sold that’s grippy in the wet, but doesn’t come apart when facing grippy footpegs. The surefootedness gained here makes riding in any weather conditions a non-issue, rain or shine, you’ll feel the pegs and your boots won’t slip off. Just above that, a wider toe box (for comfort) is flanked on the outside by a replaceable toe slider, and a shift/abrasion pad is fitted against the top. Further back, a solid heal counter surrounds your heel while it too, is flank on the outer side by an ankle brace that’s not only rigid, but allows a natural movement of the foot. Moving up from there, the shin is surrounded by a large piece of armor that looks as nifty as it is protective. And finally we dive inside the boot, where comfort lives, and for those in hotter climates, the boots can be had in a ventilated version that keeps your feet cool while cruising down a hot road. A breathable textile liner provides a secure, comfortable fit. On the medial side, a zipper is secreted behind a flap for aerodynamic good looks. What you’ll find with these boots, is comfort in a stylish chassis that provides excellent protection in a nice, well-rounded package. And they’re available in a wide range of colors in the vented version, and either vented/non-vented in black or black/red color ways. No doubt, there’s a boot for you!

I have wide feet and struggle with these types of boots I feel I have average wide feet and they cup my foot very nicely without any side to side extra room. Kind of a perfect fit for me I guess. So if one has a wider foot it might be a bit snug. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
