Alpinestars Tech-1 KX V3 Racing Shoes White/Green (FIA)

Alpinestars Tech-1 KX V3 are karting shoes with FIA 8877-2022 homologation, designed for drivers who want precise pedal feel and low weight in the cockpit. The manufacturer combines solutions known from Formula 1 with the requirements of the karting track.

A high upper, an adjustable strap and quick lacing keep your foot securely in place, while perforated panels keep the air flowing.

Detailed look of the shoes

The base is a white finish with fine black speckling and rows of air intakes cut out in the shape of grains. Green outlines run around a red star-shaped logo on the sides, and a green accent closes off the heel. The red sole contrasts with a black carbon fibre-texture insert at the back and a black mesh upper. The strap carries the red Alpinestars logo, and the heel features the 1K marking.

Construction and materials

• Material: ultra-thin PU film combined with 3D mesh - according to the manufacturer, a lightweight and durable construction.
• Ventilation: laser-cut air intakes and perforations on the toes and along the sides.
• Tongue: micro suede and 3D mesh support airflow.
• Sole: thin rubber with a textured tread for great pedal feel and grip.
• Fastening: adjustable strap and aramid lacing with the Alpinestars wire system.
• Homologation: FIA 8877-2022.

The soft microfibre collar is cut lower at the back, so it does not press on your Achilles tendon. The slim, anatomical profile holds your foot precisely.
