The Alpinestars Ride-63 Leather Shoes combine a classic high-top street style with motorcycle-specific protection and all-day walking comfort. Finished in Black, Cool Gray, and White, these riding shoes feature a premium leather upper with split suede heel and side sections for flexibility, durability, and a lightweight feel. The leather nubuck ankle section adds support in a key area while maintaining comfortable movement. This Alpinestars model is designed for street riders who want casual styling without sacrificing essential protective features.
The Ride-63 uses strategically varied open-cell foam padding in the shift pad zone, ankle, and collar to improve comfort, airflow, and impact absorption. A breathable mesh lining promotes ventilation, while the removable OrthoLite insock helps prevent overheating and provides lasting underfoot comfort. The oil-resistant polyurethane midsole includes an integrated heel disc for cushioning and shock absorption, and the dual-layer polypropylene insole balances flexibility, durability, and walking comfort. An anti-sliding microsuede heel adds durability and helps improve fit during use.
Protection is built into the shoe through double-density TPU ankle protectors positioned between the upper and padded lining. Medial and external ankle discs provide discreet protection, while the Alpinestars Transversal Protection Frame supports the foot on the motorcycle footrest without restricting front-foot flexion. Internal toe box and heel counter reinforcements enhance structure and protection beneath the upper. The left shoe includes a shift pad zone engineered for gear-shift use, making the Ride-63 suitable for everyday motorcycle commuting and urban riding.
The eight-hole high-top design uses a classic lateral lace system for secure closure, with contrasting rubber lace tips that improve finger grip during lacing. The manufacturer is Alpinestars, and the manufacturer and vendor part number is 2540926-1471-12. This product is the US 12 version of the Alpinestars Ride-63 Leather Shoes and is intended for motorcycle riders seeking a protective, comfortable street-riding shoe.
