Alpinestars Ridge Waterproof Boots

By Ben from Gold Country, CA

Pros: Comfortable to wear for extended period of time. Great ankle action. Good feel on the top and bottom of the boot.

Cons: Relatively tough to get on and off. Rather warm on really hot days (though not totally unbearable).

Sizing Info: Fits true to size

Additional Sizing Notes: Fits true to size, though this feels very deceiving the first time you put the boots on. Very snug as you pull in boots passed your heel, but the foot settles nice and snug once inside. Very comfortable.

Comments: Very versatile sport touring boot. I would highly recommend the product if you fit this niche.

Pros: These are well built boots that don't look like you belong on a race track or dirt bike.

Cons: They do seem a liitle thick around the legs, but I suppose that is what they are supposed to be like...not really a con. Putting these on is a bit of a chore for me but I buddy slipped them on with no problem, so I guess it is just my foot, which I didn't think was very wide.

Sizing Info: Fits true to size

Additional Sizing Notes: These boots are a liitle snug in the width but after wearing around the house for a few hours I took these boots out for a ride and they were perfect. They didn't make my feet go numb and were still very comfortable after a few hours.

Comments: Overall, these are great boots and I would recommend them to anyone else.

By Jameson from Montgomery, AL

Pros: I was wary about buying these after reading the reviews about last years model of this boot. This one is now CE certified and I decided to give it a try, I'm very glad I did. These boots have great padding and feel like they would hold up great in a wreck. The velcro offers a quite a bit of adjustment and feels very secure. Out of the box these were comfortable and pretty easy to walk around in. The sole gives good grip and you don't have to worry when you plant your feet at a light.

Cons: There are only 2 things that somewhat bother me, and they are far from a deal breaker. First off, they don't exactly breathe. Riding in the warm weather in the south will make you sweat regardless, but these will add to that. Second, shifting can be a little difficult due to the stiffness of the ankle. I've only worn these for about an hour total on my bike around town so far so I'm hoping they loosen up a little and it won't be a problem. Again, just a couple of small gripes.

Sizing Info: Fits true to size

Comments: Overall these are a great boot right out of the box and $130 for a CE certified boot is a pretty nice deal. They don't exude that race-boot look so if you wear them around no one really notices.... (Read the rest of this review)
