I\'ve had 2 sets of alpinestars. Both were tech 6. Each of the times I have owned them I had lower leg, and foot injuries(multiple broken bones). I have owned 4-5 other brands of boots, and have always been more satisfied with sidi, and gaerne despite long break-ins or more restrictive feel. The tech 6 looks nice, and is cheap, but seems to have poor protection. The soles wore superfast also. You would be better off saving your money, and buying top of the line safety equipment. It will pay for itself in the long run.
