I was pretty happy with these Alpinestars Tech 7's. Ankle pivot wasn't as good as I hoped and the toe box was softer than expected. Granted, they've been though the ringer and I haven't had any lower leg injuries wearing them, but i did fold the toe up enough a couple times that left me limping for a day or two.
For $275 I expected them to last more than a few years. Replacements are $430 now. That's too much for a boot that starts disintegrating like this. No crash caused this recently, just normal lumps and bumps.
What are you using and how long have they held up? I don't mind ponying up for expensive boots if they'll last.
