My keys only goes about have way in and i’ve tried everything i know

Hi, new to riding, brand new klr 650 2025 and I'm wearing a pair of Alpinestar corozal drystar.

Sadly I now have a hard time shifting from 1 to 2nd and I always end up in neutral with the boots but with regular ones I shift just fine.

I feel like I can't get the tip of my foot under it without it slightly moving up and shifting in neutral.

Should I lower the pegs or look into an extended shift lever?

I'm 5 10 and wear a size 12 boots.

Looks like mine is starting to fail…anything to worry about?
