I was looking for something that was more than just a shoe but not full blown racing boot. I stumbled upon these because the price was fairy inexpensive. I've been wearing them for 8 hours a day for the past few weeks and Here's what I think.
PROS:
Stylish, look good with shorts, look best with pants.
I was worried that these would be to small or to big, as different shoes fit differently, 11.5 fit me perfectly.
They are extremely light, as light as tennis shoes.
Good over the ankle protection.
Decent Ventilation, my feet never got sweaty and I'm in Florida
CONS:
Thin flat soles. Coming from just wearing comfortable Nike's this was a noticeable change for me, I can feel a thump with every step that I take.
The laces are so long that even with the Velcro covering them, they are still a potential threat for riders.
Rides: 2009 Kawasaki EX250F Ninja 250R
Yes, I recommend this product.

Is the Alpinestar Fastlane boot true to the fit?

I'm a US 11 - 11.5, it just varies from shoe to shoe. As seeing as these are motorcycle shoes and not tennis shoes I thought they would fit a bit tighter and narrower, I ordered the 11.5 and they fit me perfectly.
