ALPINESTARS (ROAD) Speedforce XR Shoes — US 9, Black/White

Designed with the look and feel of a running sneaker, these riding shoes deliver everyday versatility and protection for street use.

The main upper combines textile with seamless polyurethane and features a reinforced toe and a microfiber heel counter for durability.

• Removable OrthoLite® insock offers long-lasting comfort and breathability.
• Elasticated tongue cover with an integrated pocket protects the lace closure.
• Elastic collar and an engineered rear puller ensure easy entry and a secure fit for different ankle sizes.
• 3D mesh lining enhances breathability and micro suede on the heel reduces slipping.

The sole includes a heel-dampening EVA pad, an integrated transversal protection frame (TPF) with a forefoot metal bar, TPU shanks and a PU midsole with a protective carbon textile layer to balance walking comfort and transversal protection.

Oil-resistant rubber sole with high-grip lugs improves traction and control, while medial dual-density ankle protectors combined with lateral TPR details provide strategic protection and flexibility.

Internal toe box and heel counter reinforcements are layered under the upper for ergonomic protection, and an 8mm drop optimizes walking comfort.
