I purchased the Black/White/Red color combinamtion. These shoes look excellent and are very comfortable. The black material on the shoe looks like carbon fiber. They were a little stiff at first, but have broken in nicely. The laces hold tight, and the velcro strap seems like it will last. They are also very lightweight. Obviously I haven't wrecked in them, but don't think they will offer muxh ankle protection in the event of a crash.

I originally purchased a pair of Icon Twenty-nines for my MSF course. However, once I purchased my new motorcyle, I wanted to upgrade. I wore a medium Icon glove, but purchased a large Alpinestars glove and it fits well. They look great, and have good flexibility. They aren't as cool as a mesh glove, but my hands are never sweaty. The carbon fiber looks great. My only complaint is the rubber Alpinestars logos on the index and middle fingers fell off right away. They aren't needed at all, and I can't tell the difference if they are there or not.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I currently wear an Icon Alliance (size small) helmet, but would like to upgrade to a Arai Vector 2 Launch helmet. What size do you recommend I should order ?
