First Impressions: I have multiple Dainese track/street related items and I have to admit I was mildly disappointed by these boots. There is nothing wrong with them per se, but I was expecting these to be a little more track focused in regards to protection. They do look good and match my wife's suit very well.
Protection: The boot appears adequate for protection. It has lateral ankle flex which could be concerning under certain types of crashes. The slider is a type of plastic so after a few good toes slides you might be feeling the asphalt touching your toes. Overall, the boot looks to be more street orientated than track orientated.
Fit and Comfort: As usual to Dainese, finish was really good. Unusually fit was larger than expected. My wife had to go about 2 sizes down from the recommended chart (38 from 40) to get them to fit. Kudos to Revzilla for doing a great job at assisting us to get the right size. Even at 38 they are a touch large, but given she'll have thick socks on for track use and that a 37 would be too tight these will work fine. Wife gave thumbs up to comfort. Not a boot you would walk around in but is comfortable for riding/track use.
Nutshell: It's relatively difficult to find women's track related gear so it's good to see women's focused gear/boots coming out. While these could have been a little more track focused in regards to protection they look nice, are comfortable to wear on the bike, and would work well for my wife at her current level of expertise on the track. I'll look into more protective boots as she progresses.
Yes, I recommend this product.
