RyanH Red Deer,  AB Highly recommended These are the best boots you can buy. This is my second pair. The first pair lasted longer than any other I've worn. The buckles are a big improvement from previous versions, although a little stiffer to close. They are miles better than the buckles on the Fox boots my son wears. The soles last much longer than the Fox or Shift boots and they are more comfortable than Gaerne or Sidi boots. They feel more protective than Tech 10's and are a better combination of leather and plastic.

shea sunbury,  OH Alpinestar Tech 8 I just switched over to the Alpinestars Tech 8 boot and I’m never gonna get a different boot. I had some Fox F3’s and they were pretty good but the Alpinestars are much more comfortable and durable. The buckles on the F3’s broke real easy and it’s hard to find replacements. The Tech 8’s are more durable and its easy to find what you need for them. I think it’s worth spending a little extra to get the Tech 8’s.

Jessica Broderson Oroville,  CA Great boots. I compared prices for a couple of weeks, and although there was not a huge difference between anyone, (only a couple cents) there was the benefit of free shipping on items over a certain amount. The cost for shipping was only about 10 bucks but it is still saving. The process was very easy and took only a couple minutes. The boots were shipped from the west coast so I got them really fast! Only one issue, I did have to return them for a different size, and they put money back on my card when they were returned. I was not aware of the policy so I thought they messed up, and I re-bought them online. However a very nice person from motorcycle superstore called to double check about possible double shipment. So, if EXCHANGING just know they put the money back and then recharge it when they send the replacements. Overall, I enjoyed purchasing the boots through motorcycle superstore; they are a very good boot and will last a long time!

Kim Hoskins West yellowstone,  CA Great boots! These are the best boots I have ever ridden with. Great looks, great protection, great boots. The only thing about these boots is that you have to kinda tap the buckles to close but don’t let that stand in the way of getting these!
