Due to me giving up biking for the forseeable future these have got to go. They are in good condition, few scratches on the heel plate....but thats unavoidable. Still fairly white (thats an acheivement!!!) as you can see in the pics and with loads of wear left....even when they do wear out (2-3 years at this rate, alpinestars can supply a new sole to be fitted.. They look good, feel good and protect well.
I paid £190 back in apri/May. I want £98 inc P&P offers accepted.
the official spiel:
The Alpinestars SMX Plus boot features a contoured shin plate protector which is injected in high modulus PU for a high level of impact and abrasion resistance, a U shaped calf protector that is impact resistant and protects the internal/external ankle and rear calf area. Additional protection is provided by the top recessed buckle structure. These fantastic boots also have interchangeable sliders constructed from biinjected PU material with snap-in assembly, heel and ankle protectors with wide and ventilated heel counter that extends to both ankles to increase protection and is combined with a shock absorbing padded insert, and selfmoulding foam ankle protectors. Replaceable PTFE coated aluminum sliders are positioned in the back and external section of the heel to allow the boot to slide and absorb shocks during falls. For ankle support these boots have internal patented "ankle brace" with shock absorbing material, injected PU extended to the toe area. On the instep these boots have extended thermoformed bellow for a soft back and forth flex and are constructed from Lorica and leather. The brand new sole has been designed for improved feeling between the rider's foot and the pegs of the motorcycle and the closure system is Instep speed lacing closure. Unique and protective lateral zip with reflective piping, these boots also feature replaceable ratchet buckle closure on the calf features a hidden strap for security and is integrated with a calf slider, synthetic forefoot lining laminated with open cell foam, highly breathable lining on ankle and leg areas and Alpinestars anatomical and replaceable countered footbed provides arch support and forefoot pedal feeling
