To get to the point, part 1: there are Stella Sektor motorcycle shoes that are waterproof and there are Sektor motorcycle shoes that are not. There are otherwise mostly common features but this pair of motorcycle shoes, for the sake of clarity, is primarily ankle-high and non-waterproof.
To cut to the chase, part 2: the fact that 'Stella' is in the name here implies that this is a women's shoe. So the Stella Sektor is - in one sentence but we like to write more - a motorcycle shoe for women.
Alpinestars is not the manufacturer to get away with pink stitching and smaller sizes, so the usually slightly more elegant female foot will feel at home in these. They look just as sporty, light and fast as their almost-twin brothers and sisters. In fact, they just are. The Stella Sektor also features all the safety elements you would expect when talking about motorcycle shoes.
A lightweight microfiber is the base material of this Stella Sektor. The matte black exterior is stylish and durable, while underneath, a whole host of protective elements provide the much-needed safety. The lateral ankle protector, a slider, toe and heel protection, they're all there and they're all level. It guarantees a solid base and enough confidence to get you going on and off the bike. Whether you're at the handlebars or on the back.
Despite all those safety elements, the Stella Sektor motorcycle shoes are at no point heavy, inelegant or big. On the contrary, in the tradition of real racing shoes, these remain sleek, sharp motorcycle shoes that frame your foot perfectly. In a comfortable way, because with an EVA footbed, a thin rubber sole and the cut-out at the height of your Achilles tendon, this footwear is up to something. The non-slip relief on the inside, combined with the sporty line, do little to hide the link with the better racing gear.
Getting in and out is done in the traditional way, where - there's the racing shoe again - you can neatly tuck the lace ends behind a stripe of velcro. A sleek design, stylish and flexible elements on the heel and bridge make the Stella Sektor motorcycle shoe very pleasant companions.
