Review on 👞 Alpinestars Faster-3 Motorcycle Shoes for Men in Black, White, and Red - Size 8.5 by Ricky Pee

These shoes look really cool. I was pleased that they match my other red/white/black motorcycle gear which also goes perfectly with my red/white/black sport bike. Great. I've worn them all 3 times so far and the other day when accelerating out of 1st gear after a red light stop I dragged my toes for maybe a nanosecond and the fabric is now visibly torn at the tips as I did a more serious/ had more intensive contact with the street. The inner fabric is light gray in color so it's quite noticeable compared to the all black design. I had no choice but to paint over the scratches/cracks with a damn marker to somehow hide the damage. A little disappointing. I hope they really protect me in case of a fall. In addition, the sole of the shoe is not completely flat. They are pointed and almost feel like high heels when walking. Uncomfortable, but I wouldn't wear them if you plan on doing more than your regular grocery shopping or a few quick errands in it. Long walks in them may not be very good. However, if you are looking for a cool looking pair of riding shoes from a popular brand, these will definitely turn heads. But I can't talk about real protective properties.
