ALPINESTAR S-MX 2

[Batfink]

For Fathers Day I am getting a new set of riding boots so last week we went to all the local bike shops to try on pairs. As I have always worn hightop style boots (my last pair being Shark Predators) I made a bee line right for the shelves of pretty hightops.
After many minutes of umming and arrring, poking and proding, trying on and tossing away the pairs available I started looking at the other styles of boots available.
I immediately ignored the "HD" style boots (the heel and toe heights look like they just wont work on the busa).
So what I had left was basically Alpinestar boots (shoes).
Tomorrow I will pick up a pair of these to try out


being a hightop fan they feel a bit weird as bike boots but I do like the style. Yes they are also a lot more convenient to get on and off plus I think they wont over fill with sweat like my old boots did.
There was an option of a water proof pair (Land Gore-Tex boots) but with the top so low I figure waters gunna get in anyway.

I will be missing out on trying them this Saturday as I go for a blast to Burnie and back but will try to remember to give more feedback as I wear them in.
Cheers
