Alpinestars Tech 10 vs. Tech 7 vs. Tech 5

According to online retailers and marketing material, all of these boots are amazing, and it can be a little hard to pick through the praise to find the real-world differences between these motocross boots from Alpinestars. As someone that has spent a good amount of time in all three (plus many other makes/models of motocross boots) here is a more detailed and honest breakdown of how the Tech 10, Tech 7, and Tech 5 compare to each other and who should consider which boot.

Great video! I wish manufacturer's did videos like this, but they never want to make their product look inferior, even against their own stuff. Please make more videos like.

Just new to the moto game from forty years (that is not a misprint) of hardcore MTB trail and travel. I really appreciate the candor and honesty of VitalMX reviews. I can tell, y'all use the stuff and beat the livin snot out of things every day, and I'm a Boomer who listens LOL OMFG bikes are SOOOOOO freakin much better when I was young! Safety, too! Great time to get back in it. Thanks for all the content, and thank you for confirming my fear of wackin my Achilles and not having enough pro on the back of the boot. Upped my boots level because of it. It's not a silly fear anymore.

VERY, VERY Helpful! Thank you. I've been thinking about the Tech 10's for my next set, but with your review, I see the 7's will probably do me just fine. I've been wearing Tech 8's for about 15 years, and was totally bummed that Alpinestars shutdown that product line. I need buckle straps! I may send in my Tech 8s to Alpinestars for their repair service. I'm on the fence between new boots and repair of my current pair. Alpinestars has a fantastic repair service, very fairly priced.

I've had 2 pairs of alpinestar tech 8s, the first pair I bought in 1998, they are still going and in good shape, 2 nd pair I got in 2007 and they are still like new ( sold them when our track closed and in depression I sold everything and bought a stupid HARLEY) So last summer I bought a new pair of FOX comp 5 enduro mx boots, total JUNK.... fell apart in 4 rides. So I'm back in my tech 8s from 1998 .

@petem2700 4 жыл бұрын

I have that era tech 8 also, when they were still made in Italy. Also a pair from early 2000s, manufactured in Croatia. Still a good boot, my "daily set", but just a notch below the Italian made pair. I think a stars are now made in Thailand. Stick with your '98 model

@crazysteve2112 Жыл бұрын

@jimh2061 - I can only speak to my 2006 Alpinestar Tech8 MX Boots. I switched over from a GasGas EC300 2 Stroke Dirtbike to a Yamaha Grizzly 660 ATV in 2008. During a rocky trail section, my left foot got pinned between my ATV rear tire and a rock. The ATV was leaning towards my foot, not only was it jammed, but a 500lb ATV was resting on it. My buddies where able to help me get unstuck and my Left foot / leg / ankle where 100% OK! I am in need of new boots, and I am going to get the Tech 7 Enduro Drystars - 17 years better technology! Get the Tech 7's and you'll be just fine. On a side note, my ATV riding buddies all went out the next day and bought MX riding boots, 1 buddy bought the Tech 8's specifically.

They are all junk. Try the sidi boots. More protection, they flex without sacking out and most parts are replaceable. Alpinestar sponsors 90% of guys on bikes, that’s the only reason to wear them.
