The car was designed at the Centro Stile Alfa Romeo, by a team headed by Marco Tencone and including Senior Exterior Designer, Andrea Loi. In 2018, Giulia was awarded the Compasso d'Oro industrial design award. The Giulia was second in 2017 European Car of the Year voting and was named Motor Trend Car of the Year for 2018. The Giulia is also the first mass-market Alfa Romeo vehicle in over two decades to use a longitudinal rear-wheel drive platform, since the 75 which was discontinued in 1992. Known internally as the Type 952, it was unveiled in June 2015, with market launch scheduled for February 2016, and it is the first saloon offered by Alfa Romeo after the production of the 159 ended in 2011. ![]() The Alfa Romeo Giulia is a compact executive car produced by the Italian manufacturer Alfa Romeo. 8-speed automatic ( ZF 8HP75, Quadrifoglio)ġ,734 kg (3,822 lb) Quadrifoglio.6-speed manual ( ZF S6-53, Quadrifoglio).I'll be sure to update with a comparison once I've got them broken in and have enough time on them to compare. I decided to get a pair of Tech 8's, I found a great deal on them online, and figured it may take care of the comfort issue. This could have happened on any other boots too, I don't know. Nothing broken, but I find it odd how I got this injury although the boot has no markings on it from anything hitting/puncturing it. It's been swollen and hard-feeling ever since, hopefully it will go away soon. Somehow something really jammed my ankle through the boots, on the inner side of it at the bottom of the shin. It was a good one as my kidney belt was laying ten feet away and my goggles were gone. I cross rutted on the face of a step-up/tabletop and landed sideways, high siding. I've only sustained one related injury wearing these boots, which was last time I rode, approximately a month ago. I imagine the same would have happened to any boots. It's not a big deal either, I just noticed it being there and it could have been like that for months. One toe piece got bent, probably from dragging my foot into a rock in a turn or something. I wouldn't have even known it was there until I was cleaning the boots last time. The leather on the arch of the foot got a small tear, from my foot slipping off of the kickstarter. ![]() It doesn't bother me all the time, but sometimes it can be very irritating. I may just have weird feet, I've never heard anyone else complain about it. The tightness on the front area of the ankle does not seem to be because of the strap, but because of the form of the leather. When all 3 things are aligned properly it's barely an issue. It can depend on if my pants are bunched up at all there, the positioning of the shin guard, and the angle of my ankle. The top buckle isn't a big deal, it always will go on, but sometimes it takes a lot of force to get it to go. The only complaints I have had about them so far:ĭifficult to get top buckle done up with shin guards on.ĭiscomfort/tightness on front of foot between bottom/2nd buckles. The Tech 6's still feel like new, stiff ankles and no slop. These boots last way longer than the Hi Point's they replaced, they would have long been worn out by now. It never occurred, mine are no longer perfect but they are by no means worn out, just chewed up a bit on the ball areas. I had heard reports that I could expect extremely fast soul wear. The size 14 Tech 6's fit perfectly, no fuss no muss. I wear a size 14 running shoe, and previously had a pair of size 15 Hi Point Pro GP's. I don't ride all year round, so I've probably put on one years worth of riding compared to a lot of you. I've had a pair of Tech 6's for almost 2 years now. ![]()
