Alpinestars SMX-1 V2 Riding Boots

The Alpinestars SMX-1 V2 Riding Boots are class-leading, low-cut performance boots engineered for riders who want the protection of a track boot with the everyday comfort of a short riding shoe. Constructed from a lightweight, high-performance microfiber upper, these short boots are reinforced with strategically placed TPU armor. Featuring a high-grip rubber sole and advanced flex zones, they offer exceptional control, comfort, and durability both on the bike and walking around after a ride.

Premium Construction & Ergonomics

• Streamlined Profile: Ergonomic boot shaping tapers the forefoot, offering a comfortable, wide-ranging fit with excellent precision on your bike's footpegs.
• Anatomical Closure System: Features an angled instep strap reinforced with ultra-durable, lightweight Aramidic fiber wires, plus a front Velcro® system with a TPR puller for quick adjustments.
• Advanced Airflow & Flex: Rear flex bellows feature a dedicated ventilation window that acts as an active air intake, keeping your feet cool during hot summer rides.
• All-Weather Grip Sole: Alpinestars' exclusive rubber compound sole features specialized patterning for superior grip, excellent water dispersion on wet South African roads, and long-lasting durability.
• Easy Entry: Designed with a convenient reverse zip closure system to make getting the boots on and off incredibly fast.

Street-Ready Protection

• Transversal Protection Frame (TPF): The sole includes an integrated internal steel frame designed to protect your foot against severe transversal crushing loads.
• Heavy-Duty External Shields: Built with a high-modulus TPU heel counter, a lateral ankle guard, and a newly designed ergonomic shift pad for maximum shock deflection.
• Hidden Impact Armor: Double-density ankle protectors and internal toe box armor are layered beneath the outer shell to shield critical areas without sacrificing comfort.
• Screw-In Toe Sliders: Integrated, replaceable bi-injected TPU forefoot sliders feature an easy-screw mechanism for rapid replacement when worn down.
• Safety Standards: Fully CE-certified to EN13634:2017 regulatory standards.

• Mad Macs Rider Note: If you find full-length race boots too restrictive for your daily commute or quick weekend breakfast runs, the short SMX-1 v2 is the ultimate compromise. They give you proper ankle and sole-crush protection without the bulk. True to Euro sizing.
