Air vents have been integrated into the heel counter and shin plate to prolong rider comfort even under demanding conditions. Whether your playground is the racetrack or the back roads, the Alpinestars Stella SMX 6 V2 Boots are designed to offer protection, dexterity and performance without compromise.
