Default Alpinestars S-MX 2 boots

should i sell them or keep them around just in case? wore them for the MSF class and have been in the box since.

they're nice and comfy, but are they track-able?

They won't fit me so keep them. Boots like those are comfie enough you should be wearing them every time you go ride.

Google "de-gloving" and find out why you should wear boots VERY quickly. 9 times out of 10 if you crash even at 30mph your shoes fall off.

That being said those look comfortable enough to wear all the time while you ride.

are they track worthy? I doubt it although most places if it's your first track day will let you get away with a lower cut boot but only once.
