When I saw the Alpinestar SMXR boots last spring I thought I gota have those. I looked at the price and it slowed me up for a while. Last week I ponied up and ordered them the boots fit my feet fine I like the look but I cant get them zipped over my leathers. Any of you guy that have big calves have any suggestions on boots like this that you know fit.
 
i just zipped my leathers over the boots cuz i have the same issue.. running the oxtar tcs evo rx boots. works for me haha.
 
I don't have big calves, I have huge muscles

I went with the SIDI because it's the only boot that has a large enough diameter around my calf to allow my leatehrs to fit in comfortably. The zipper stops 3/4 of the way up then the velcro takes over.

Also, most comfy boot I've ever worn.
 
I like the Sidi Vertigo's (I wear 'em) cause of the calf adjustment...

Check 'em out!
 
I don't only have 20" calves but also wear a size 14 wide boot. So I haven't been able to find a pair to fit me. I just where Hi-Tech lace ups.
 
My calves are 17" around - I know because I was wearing the ICON knee/shin guards for a while and they were way too tight - and I wear the SIDI B-2 boots which provide a good amount of room for leathers when zipped up..

what do the boots look like kevin?
 
have you tried www.newenough.com .....read the reviews or called them?

they are pretty good about giving real world fitments/suggestions on their products.

they might be able to steer you in the right direction.

I got them from new enough and they are checking to see if they have any that might fit probably in the Sidi brand

I sent them back to New Enough DR1300. I just liked the look of those boots. Not trying to look like a Power Ranger.

Free bump here.

OK so today I bugged out, took a long lunch and went to the bike shop to try on Boots. Ok so they have a pretty hot clothing chick too! Anyways I wear a size 14 and was looking for a set of Vertigo Tepors in size 49. No luck. They did have a set of Alpinestars (can't remember the name but not the top of the line) that I tried on. First impression- wow these actually fit pretty good! But then I tried to zip em up and as soon as I got to the ankle... Whammy! They were fine around the Calf but I couldn't zip past my ankle. What the heck is the deal? The search continues.
