New boot time, Alpinestars....

[madalf71]

Hi All.
Time to replace my very aging Alpinestar Stages....13yo!

I've recently tried a set of Forma Voyages, however they are really loose in the ankle, so much so I'm going to try and return them. I'm a little foot, EU40, and no kanckles!

So looking at going back to Alpinestars, been looking at the Gran Torino, and Web gortex, I'm very much about plain Jane look. Does anyone have any experience or reviews of these? I couldn't find any info over at the main board in "Gear".

TIA.

have you tried TCX?

Hmmm TCX, just had some google time, might have to ring McClouds and find out who retails then in Vic.

Gaerne make clean style street boots with good protection. Never owned a pair so don't know the fit.

I know Stylmartin are back in business with a new range of boots. The street range looks more classic in style.

Rossi?

NFI, but look OK. Not lairy.

I bought a pair of RJAYS fuel boots (ankle high) a few years ago. Comfy enough and they were about $170 IIRC.

Update.....
Pulled the trigger on a some Apline Star Web Gortex, thanks to Ed at Peter Stevens Melb city.
Much better fit than the Formas.
Distributor has OKed a return on the Formas, yet to be collected...

Double thumbs up! It's good to have boots that fit right!
