Alpinstar Tech 5 are Super comfortable, true to size. Great protection for the kind of riding I do (mild offroad) Brian is the Man when it comes to gear, he knows the right questions to ask and advises on what will work for you. Thanks for all your help Brian !
Atomic Moto was right on target. These are very nice boots. They have much more protection that my previous mx style boots and because of that I was worried that they were going to be too stiff. I just wore them around the house for a couple hours and was good to go. In fact I was able to shift better with these than my old broken in (and broken down) boots. Lots of internal padding also made the Tech 5s comfortable for all day riding. Spot on Atomic Moto!!!
They do seem like a good boot, overall I like them but have 4 issues. Main and biggest is the strap length, the straps in all positions are just way too short. Next I ordered a 14/49 and they are still pretty narrow. Third issue is they should mention treating the leather on the boot before first use or just do it from factory. A lot of wear where where the straps rub the leather, and they are not very water resistant. Lastly, I bought these because I thought that they would be a good balance of control, feel and protection. They are pretty much like every other boot where you cannot really feel the controls much at all. I am not a fan of the plastic molding in a toe box.
This all being said I do like the boot. I am hoping that they last if few seasons. I can't say I feel they offer a ton more protection or substantial gain over something like an O'Neill Ryder boot. But for three times the cost. I'm hoping I get three times to use, as the cheaper boots tend to only last a season or two.
I reached out to Brian from atomic and he helped get me into the best boots for my feet! Very comfortable and fit like a glove thanks again Brian
Comfortable!!! No sag!!These are great for motorcycling and I can see multi-sporting them to skiing, ice hockey, running, etc. Impressive socks and comfortable!!!
I'm happy with theses socks. They are the right length for my new Motocross boots. I can't say enough about Atomic-Moto, they are just great to deal with. I highly recommend dealing with them, no matter what you buy.
I'm super happy with these boots The quality seems great and they were already comfortable after just an hour or so of wearing them. They were even more comfortable after my first weekend wearing them and I think they will continue to break-in a little.
What is even better than the boots is Atomic-Moto! Brian was great to talk to and helped me find the right product for my situation. He tried to help me save money, rather than spend more than I needed to. I appreciate good customer service and being able to talk to a knowledgeable person. - That is EXACTLY what you get with Atomic-Moto!
