It also has a toe slider, velcro adjustment strap and a styled TPU shift pad. This shoe will go up against any of the other sport riding shoes and boots in the 100 to 200 range.

They fit a little loose around the top but otherwise are great. good airflow for hot days and they are stylish enough to wear with a pair of jeans. Stick with revzillas recommendation for sizing!
Yes, I recommend this product.

I'm looking for a street book like the A* SMX-1. I wear size 13 and my foot runs a bit wide. What boots/sizing would you recommend?

I bought the 46 (11.5) even though i usually where a 12-12.5 depending of the type of shoe. They fit snug in the wide area of the foot at first but broke in nicely. and are a little loose at the top of the boot. i'd say go with the 48 (12.5) and if they are just way too tight and you don't think they'd break in enough for your foot send em back for the 49 (13.5) and run a little loose. Just don't wear them outside or on the bike and leave the tags on. Walk around the house a bit to get a feel for them. like they say they do the first exchange/return for free. Hope this helps

Does the S-MX1 have a "hard" lower shin protection and "hard" ankle protection. Can you kindly please add more to the description regarding safety?

No for the shins and no for the ankle, just the TPU piece on the outer ankle. only real "Hard" protection is the heel cup, toe slider and the stiff sole of the boot.
