Got this in white/black and it looks amazing. High quality leather seems very sturdy. Flows a good amount of air. I'm 5'10 190 got the 54euro and is roomy enough for a force field pro sub 4 back protector and chest protector and not restrictive At all. Was undecided between that and the 52, glad I went a size up. You'll love this jacket!!,

As other reviewers have said, this boot does run a little big and i would suggest ordering 1 size down. I wear a 10.5 sneaker and ordered a 44 which fits perfectly. I have Bicycling shoes which use the european standard and those are a 45 on me(for comparison). I also have a wide foot, nothing abnormally wide but these boots accomodate perfectly. The White is very bright, but sharp looking. However, it does scuff up VERY easily. But I suppose thats the same for most white footwear. Boots are very comfortable and have worn them for the better part of a day both on and off bike without any discomfort. They hold onto the pegs well and I feel less likely to slip when stopped with a foot down on the pavement. Side zipper feature is a great feature, set the buckle once and now only use the side zippers to get in and out of the boots Overall I'm very happy with these SMX-2 boots and would suggest them to others!
Yes, I recommend this product.

Alpinestars Mert Leather Jacket
Alpinestars Mert Leather Jacket Cut from supple, 1.1mm full-grain leather for the optimal combination of durability, comfort and abrasion resistance. Large perforated panels promote airflow within the jacket for extra riding comfort. Adjustable and removable CE certified elbow and shoulder protectors provide high levels of impact protection. Additional protection afforded by PE foam padding in the chest and back pad compartments. Removable thermal wind breaker vest liner offers true year round comfort capability. Wrist and waist adjustment allow a tailored fit. Waist connection zipper allows connection to a wide range of Alpinestars leather and textile pants.
Is the PE Foam in the back and chest compartment removable/upgradable?
I would like to insert Alpine Stars Bio Armor instead, is this possible?
In the GP-R leather jacket all the armor and foam is removable, I've taken the chest and back foam out of mine.

Futuristic lines and painstaking attention to detail distinguish Quito, the ankle boot in cowhide and split leather expressly designed for city-touring. The quality of the materials used and the application of soft inserts and protections in composite material make the Quito ankle boot safe, sturdy, and comfortable. Ankle height, with closing at the sides by straps over the laces, and an abundance of original personalisation make Quito ankle boots destined for certain success. Features Leather version is perforated Cowhide Topskin leather Composite inserts Soft inserts Honeycomb fabric lining
I am aware that the black colorways come in two types: normal and perforated? Which ones are these? Thanks.
The white SMX-2 are vented, there is a small vent on the side of each boot. Just like the non-waterproof one's in black.
