New boots: Alpinestars “Harlem”

Just bought a pair of new boots. They are absolutely excellent!

Product Features

  • Constructed using full grain leather
  • Mid-cut boot, fitted with instep and Achilles flex zones providing freedom of lateral movement and superior comfort
  • Double-density injected ankle protection molded into the inner structure of the boot
  • Heel protector molded internally with reinforced visible heel protector fitted externally for ultimate protection
  • Waterproof performance membrane
  • Toe protection provided by an additional strip of leather across bridge of toes for ultimate comfort while changing gears

From a usage perspective, the main features I like:

  • very comfortable (easy to wear all day in the office)
  • not too much of a “boot” look so can wear off the bike
  • rigid sole with good grip make for sure footing
  • beautifully crafted Italian leather (“Made in Italy”)
  • side-zip for easy on and off
  • perfect size and weight balance for gear shifting up and down – sturdy but deft

They’re the most expensive pair of footwear I’ve ever bought but I know they are going to be worth every penny.

Shop: Megabikes, Wexford Street, Dublin 8
