The question on everyones mind is,
Are they still made in China?
Are they made in a "sweatshop" where workers are paid pennies for wages yet you still charge "top shelf" prices to your customers?

Did you the consumer realize that Gaerne and Sidi are still handmade in Italy?
Just like the original Alpinestars used to be made...

Wow, still thought they were made in Italy. Might as well be Fly, MSR or any other good design sent to China to mfg.... There goes the their quality control..

They better still be made in Italy, their retail prices have gone up so much in the last few years. Tech 7's used to retail for 279.99 now they are 359 and they are the exact same boot. I hope they start producing them in China to bring cost down.

Would like to correct motorhead620. Alpinestars boots are assembled in Croatia. Croatia is a Country that borders with Italy. All the components are made in Italy. This information is available through US Customs. Alpinestars makes the world's best Motocross boots.
