Sizing Information

Alpinestars “fashion” footwear runs small as compared to their boots. We’ve been told the fit is similar to a Nike, which in most people’s experience requires them to buy one half or one full size larger than they do in normal street shoes.

Our Two Cents

The Blacktop shoes from Alpinestars are more or less a high top sneaker with some motorcycle specific styling. They aren’t particularly protective, so I couldn’t really recommend them as protective equipment on a bike, but if they suit your purposes then great, we’ll be glad to sell you a pair. The combination of leather, microfiber and mesh is sharp and the protector over the toe is a nice touch. There is also generous reflective piping on the top of the shoe (the white piping you see in the pictures).
