Im done with overpaying for AStars gear! RST Is as good or better than my Alpinestars leather suits but at an honest price. And if its good enough for IOM TT Racers its fine for my track days.
Great video the boots look very nice! I have not heard of this brand before until recently. Do they fit true to size and what about cost? How do you think they compare to the Alpinestar SMX 6 V2? The look similar. Thanks
Hi There, The RST boots are true to size but if you are unsure maybe visit your local store. You could also see how they compare to the Alpinestars boots. I would say I personally prefer the Alpinestars but everyone is different, especially with boots. RST is a very popular brand and these boots in particular are hugely popular at J&S. Thanks
Hi guys, I bought these boots around 2 to 3 weeks ago. I have a ducati 848 and prior to these I had small alpine stars ankle boots. The boots feel and fit great but I have to be honest I find them awkward to ride with. I'm a relatively new rider but I feel like i can't rest my foot comfortably on the pegs and constantly miss gear shifting as I feel like i can't slide my foot under the leaver. Do I just need to get used to them and break them in more or is there something else going on? They're definitely the right size I just can't get comfy on the bike with them?
Absolutely no reflection on J&S, avoid RST boots at all costs. Bought a pair six months ago, perished and leaking already. No response from RST... terrible thing complacency, too big for their own boots it would seem.
@@rebel1052k They were marketed as such, didn't expect instant failure and degradation when I have a 10 year old pair of cheap Weiss boots for the road that are still good.
Love RST as a brand... really well priced and like you said looks brilliant. No need for £300+ boots in my eyes 👍👍👍

I recently bought these boots and love them why pay more?
Velcro on the zip.at last..my evo 1s keep unzipping when riding
Would these fit a wider calf
Hi, These are actually pretty good for that but we always recommend trying the boots on if you can.

Just a thought, I have seen other reviews say they had to adjust the gear shifter slightly. Hope this helps.
Sportbike track gear review is far more comprehensive

Rst stuff is cheap shite. I had a textile jacket that literally fell to pieces
@@TrulyUniqueOne where is RST made?
You know these boots aren't waterproof?

@@markturner1149 Cheers, was thinking of a pair but don't think i'll bother now.
good looking from a far, but far from good looking
