Alpinestars Ava Women's Boots

Lots of support

“These are great. I usually wear a 7.5 or an 8, and the 8 fits correctly. They have excellent torsion control on the ankles, and they seem very protective. I thought they might be a bit ugly to wear, but they look cool. There's some lift, which I like because I'm short. They're a little hard to get on and off with just the zipper once you have them already tied, but not too bad.”

You Won't Regret It!

“I ordered these in hopes of better handling my bike at a stop (I'm a shorty). It's difficult to find boots that give you hight in the ball of your foot, but these do just that! I get about a 1.5" lift at the ball of my foot and a 2" lift at my heel. The ad photos don't show it well but these will fit thicker calfs (mine are 13.75" circumference). These are also very comfortable to walk in.”

The Platform Makes a Difference

“As a short 5'2" rider, I absolutely love the lifted sole on these. It made a huge difference in feeling more in control when stopping with my bike. They have nice grip too, so I don't worry about the bottom of the boot slipping on the road, like some of my other boots have. And they are very comfortable. Highly recommend!”

Def worth the money!

“These boots look SO good and have a little platform for the short girlies, which is SO convenient! Definitely worth the buy. Mine fit true to size. They for sure need to be broken in though because they HURT the back of my legs.”

Awesome boots!!

“Love these boots!! They get a little hot if you're stopped for a while or walking in 80-90+ weather but the airflow you get in them while riding is amazing!! My only complaint would be that the toe box is a bit narrow, but other than that they fit great + true to size! I did have to move my shifter up a little to be able to fit them under it because of the thick sole. But it wasn't too much trouble and I love the extra height they give me when on the bike and off!”

Didn't fit.

“Boots look great but I had to return them because the toe box was so narrow. I wear a 7.5 wide. I ordered an 8. They were way too narrow to comfortably wear for any length of time.”

Totally love these boots

“So happy I got these boots. Fit my size exactly. I bought a new motorcycle (Honda Scrambler). A little heavier, and taller than my first bike. I am 5'3" and a couple inches short of flatfooting on both sides. I had some stability issues a few times (aka dropped). These boots have made all the difference. An extra 1.5 ish inch height and very stabilizing side to side. There not like wearing Hoka's, but very comfortable. It's been 90 degress and they don't feel super hot.”

good support and comfort

“The padding on top is comfortable. Feels very stable yet easy to put on/off. They look a bit bulkier when wearing than they seem in the photo. I'm comfortable standing in these for a few hours, it's a hard sole so not ideal all-day wear. Some air gets in while riding but not enough to get cold with regular socks in 40 degrees. Scratches are visible on the toebox, but I haven't tried to buff them out. Overall very happy with these and the platform height is just right because a higher platform than this would start to get difficult to upshift.”

Best Height Boost I've Found, With Some Trade-Offs

“Pros: One of the few boots that provides added height and not just to the heel for those of us on our tip toes. Adds 1" to tip toes, and approx 1.5" to ball of foot and heel. Comfortable after break in if you take the time to put them on well, breathable, feels quite protective especially for the casual style. Strangely it's easier to shift on my sport bike than on my cruiser with the platform. I had to adjust the shifter on the latter and it's still awkward. Cons: The toe scuffs easily from shifter and the boots come up to a somewhat awkward point on the calf which is not the most flatterin”

Low quality material

“The material started scuffing and peeling/falling off almost immediately and the first wear. (It was a short ride around the neighborhood to test out something on my bike). Its peeled in several small spots but otherwise the protection does seem sturdy and the zipper is convenient however it does get stuck occasionally. They're also surprisingly lightweight.”

Great riding shoes with an extra lift.

“Great pair of riding shoes if you are a bit of a shorter ride. I am 5'3 and ride a 2023 V2 Bayliss, and with these shoes I did not have to lower my motorcycle. My feet stay warm inside so if the weather is in high 50s my feet do not get cold. I also wear these boots around my college campus and they do not hurt after a full day of walking. The boots are a bit heavy though.”
