Do Alpinestarts run true to size?

[simimi]

I am going to mail or der my son a set of the kids alpinestars and was wondering if anyone knows if these, or other alpinestars run true to size, or if they run large or small.

Thanks,


mike

I bought my Tech-8's a half size larger, 11's & they always seemed a little big but, after socks, shin & knee guards they seemed to fit just fine.

I bought tech5's about a year ago and had to go a size smaller than I usually wear. I wear the heavy motocross socks with them and they fit fine.

Hey SIMIMI I wear size 11 in mens for Tennis Shoes so when I bought my Alpinestars M4 boots I ordered them over the internet at Rocky Mountain ATV/MC. So I ordered them in 11's and I prayed that they would fit and they fit me fine. Once you put your riding pants down inside the boots(I just wear Blue Jeans). I had to adjust two of the buckles on each boot but now they fit fine. When I first got them they were really stiff and I went out and sit on my bike and I was like there is no way I can ride with these things on. But then I would walk around the house with them on and they got broke in and strecthed a little bit and now are good to go. Good luck Matt. This is off of the topic but I also bought some Scott No Sweat III goggles and everywhere I looked everyone had them at like $32.99 but I got them at Rocky Mountain for $24.99. They seem to have good prices. You might want to check them out.

I wear size 10 or 11 shoes, depending on the manufacturer and my size 10 tech 6's are a bit on the small side for me. They seemed alright in the shop, but standing up for 10 mins at a time on the bike makes me feet go numb unless I wear thin socks. I think it depends on the shape of your foot as much as the size.

M-4's were 1/2 to 1 size too big for me. Vectors, just right!

I wear 9 1/2 or 10. In M'4's size 9. In Vectors size 10.

simimi, if you'r talking about the Tech 6s for youths. Yes, they run true. If he wears a 4 in a shoe. Then he will wear a 4 in Alps. My son wears them, and they have held up great.
