Alpinestars SMX-6 V3 Boots Review

[@MotorcycleGear]

Which version/color do you prefer?

[@MotoPete765]

The vented are a must, and the classic B/W

[@Hpro1i]

Copped one pair of regural version. Hope my feet wont get toasted, as there wasn't vented versions available yet. Got them for Halloween discount 249$. Black/White

[@MotorcycleGear]

@@Hpro1i That's a smoking deal on the new ones! Let us know what you think once you have some miles in them.

[@Hpro1i]

@@MotorcycleGear Unfortunately won't be able to test them properly untill spring, as the riding season has ended here in Finland❄

[@MotorcycleGear]

@@Hpro1i That is crazy, it was 75 degrees (24 Celsius) here today haha.

More boots/shoes videos please! I feel like this is a category that most YT videos tend to gloss over and just focus on jackets mostly.

[@MotorcycleGear]

Thanks for the feedback, we'll work on it!

there are three options about these boots (smxv6, smxv6 drystar (wp) and goretex) What exactly is the difference between these two(wp and goretex) ? Both are waterproof but which one would be a better choice for possible hot weather?

[@MotorcycleGear]

Drystar uses a Drystar liner (Alpinestars' in house waterproof technology) and Gore-Tex uses a Gore-Tex membrane. Gore-Tex has superior breathability.

[@thagingerninjer5391]

Gore Tex is the world’s leading LC breathable, waterproof liner. I just ordered the drystar version of this boot, because it’ll do just fine, but if you’re wanting the best, it’s goretex.

Hi i would like to ask. If im wearing a 7.5 US on regular shoe.. should i get a 41 for this boot?

[@MotorcycleGear]

@KingVMoto Yes, that is correct.

[@thagingerninjer5391]

I wear an 8.5 us, and I tried on the 42 and 43. The fit was identical in width and the diameter of the upper, around the calves. The only difference was how long the toe box was. The 42 was perfect. I had an inch of room between my toes and the end of the toe of the boot on the 43’s. I ordered the 42 in dry star, because they didn’t have those in stock. I was trying on the vented version, but the fit should be identical.

[@peytonhibdon7659]

My Girl actually preferred the men's version over the women's. The boots are unisex except the colors ladies. Don't limit your options try both for best fit.

[@MotorcycleGear]

Great point Peyton, thanks!

[@desertrider325]

can you wear these under jeans?

[@MotorcycleGear]

It depends on your jean cuff size, a baggy jean you might be able to stretch over but a tapered jean no way. The top of the boot is about 18-19 inches in circumference so you can lay you jeans flat and measure the cuff then double that measurement to get the max circumference of you jean cuff and see if it will work for you.
