We find these run true to size. The 42 is an 8US per their size chart so if those fit well go with the 8. Important to note these are available in half sizes as well so if the 42 in the SMX was a little snug you could go with the 8.5 US in these. - Van
The SMX1R are a little more technical and will offer more protection. In terms of comfort I would say they will be pretty close with the Faster being a touch more comfortable. The trade off would be a little less protection. - Van
Essentially the same shoes with a different material used. The Rideknit will flow some air to keep you feet cool similar to a perforated version of the shoe. - Van
Thanks for the informative and helpful review !
You are welcome and thanks for watching! - Van
what size you will recommend for this if I am wearing a SMX-1R v2 in US42

@@sportbiketrackgear Very clear! thank you for your information!🙏
So it’s the shoe true to size or should I get a bigger/smaller size I use 8.5 in usa
I feel these run true to size so order the same size you normally wear. - Van
Any opinion on the off the bike comfort of these vs SMX1R style short boots? I've heard the SMX actually feel more comfortable

@@sportbiketrackgear Thanks, Van. I rather lean on the side of protection. Keep up the good work 💪🏽

Good, information video..
Is this shoes suitable for wearing with some sport leather trousers like the Alpinestars Jagg?
Might be a stupid question but are they composite toe
The toe slider is a rubber material that is attached permanently to the riding shoes. - Van
Hello! Thank You for video
What is safer this or TRACTECH EVO 3 ?
I would say the Tractech Evo 3 as that is a full boot. - Van
What about these or RST Tractech Evo 3 Short boot?
anyone use thses on your dirt bike?
IMO they would just get trashed. - Van
