The Sport Tour Boot
Good boot for the money within price range. My foot is a US 13, the EU size of 48 is a good fit. I have a slightly narrow foot in the mid to heal, but need the room in toe area to accommodate. If you want, add an insert available from any local Rx or shoe store to snug up the fit. The reason I say Sport Tour Boot, this is a substantial boot, nothing casual about it, the upper is larger and not what I suggest for riding around town with a pair of jeans. The lower says all business with design and respect to not best for walking. If you plan to walk into work looking like Vernor Von Autobahn with a layer of bugs on your jacket and smell of road with exhaust go right ahead If you are hitting the open road and have a riding suit (Aerostitch for example) this is the type of boot to doing road battle. Keep the rubber side down... ride baby ride. Revzilla was fast shipping, UPS got the package to me in 3 days and they had the best price I found.

Excellent boot for the price
I've only worn them a few times so far. Very comfortable. A little tight to slide foot into, but very comfortable once foot is in. Getting foot out is much easier.
I rode in them in pouring rain and they kept my feet nice and dry and I rode in really hot weather and they kept my feet comfortably cool All in all great product.

My second pair....
Don't believe the Alpinestars sizing! Revzilla knows better.
I'm a size 10 so my first pair was a Euro 45. I swam in these.
I then replaced them with a Euro 44 which Alpinestars says is a US 9-1/2. Right. It's still slightly large for a 10. No way is it a 9-1/2.
Just beware. Otherwise is a good boot. I especially like the Velcro on the zipper which keeps it from opening again.
Only negative is that the lower height of these boots means that the tops catch under the drag points on my footpegs when at a stop. (VFR 800). Just have to remember to swing your feet way when you start.

Great product. Reasonable price. Quality is top-notch.
I purchased these boots to replace an inferior brand that fell apart in less than 100 miles. So far, I've put about 800 miles on the A* pair, and they are holding up perfectly. I spent a day training in the rain, and my feet stayed warm and dry. The boots "broke in" quickly and are comfortable enough to wear while walking around. Stiff soles take a little getting used to, since this is effectively my first pair of motorcycle boots. I've ridden in the boots for six-hour stretches and my feet stay comfortable.
Definitely recommend these boots for commuting and touring.

Good boots
This is the first pair of riding boots I have owned but hey make a lot of difference from my work boots and hiking boots. Glad I purchased. They are much more comfortable than I expected though a little narrower than I prefer but I expect they break in nicely.

Quality materials - Poor fit for Big Foot
Got these to replace a great pair of tourmaster boots that disinegrated after 2 years full time commuter use.
These don't fit nearly as well. Toe box puts pressure on top of big toe,yet is baggy at top of foot. Boot is too thick to easily use shifter as presently set up.
Hope they break-in and/or I adapt.
These are size 47, so smaller sizes may be OK.

Comfy and durable.
I have had a pair of these since 2007, appx 65k miles, and they have held up very well. Personally I have found these boots to be extremely comfortable...walking,... or riding. I liked them so much i'm going to get another pair!

Good for riding but not so much for walking
Bought this boot for a good waterproof boot for long multi-day trips.
The stitching on the tags inside at the top will drive you crazy and rub your skin raw if you do much walking unless you wear really long socks or stuff pant leg inside the boot. But if your just riding you really don't notice it, at least I didn't.
