Review on ๐Ÿ‘ž Alpinestars Men's J-6 Waterproof Motorcycle Riding Shoe - Black [Size 10] by Seth Wood

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great riding shoes!

I bought these shoes for a 3 season road bike ride and they have already become my favorite everyday shoe even when I'm not riding. Quality at the highest level. The thickness of the ankle and the support all around is excellent, especially the soles. Very difficult. Excellent hold. They have the build quality of my premium motorcycle/tactical boots but have the casual look of my everyday Vans or Converse high tops. But. The comfort and weight feel just like my favorite retro Air Jordans. The included laces lay flat, look great and never unravel. I haven't tested waterproofing yet, but I will for sure this winter as I wear these shoes everywhere now. Toe and heel are very thick and stiff and feel durable. The only improvement I would make is an extra small leather lip in the toe box of the derailleur for durability, but then maybe they don't look as casual? I love these shoes. They look like my favorite Jordans, look like my favorite Vans, but are built like my favorite tactical motorcycle boots. Dream. Likewise. If you want to wear thick socks or are at the upper limit of half a size, you have to choose a larger size for this shoe. My size is perfect, but they fit pretty tight (probably for security reasons) until hacked.

Pros
  • Decent performance
