Product: Forma Adventure Boots

WHAT IS IT?

The Adventure is one of three enduro/adventure-specific models produced by long-running Italian boot specialist, Forma, who also offers a range of MX-specific models.

WHY WE RATE IT

Ever tried riding 5000km in an uncomfortable pair of boots? It’s something you’ll only do once. Comfort and protection is a priority for the serious dual sport and adventure rider, and Forma has really nailed it with their new Adventure boots. Made in Europe using a full-grained oiled leather upper with a double-density anti-slip rubber sole, Forma’s Adventure boot is packed with protection features while remaining ultra-lightweight and waterproof. We were amazed at how well these boots performed over a week-long adventure ride through harsh conditions, and we’d go as far as saying they’re one of the most comfortable and versatile pair of boots we’ve ever worn.

Features include a Drytex lining that’s breathable and waterproof, soft internal polymer padding with memory foam, anti-bacterial replaceable footbed with APS (Air Pump System), ankle reinforcements, tough and adjustable GH plastic buckles, injection-moulded plastic front-plate and gear pad … the list goes on. Available in either black or a two-tone brown, the Adventure is a stylish boot that’s a pleasure to wear and, with a 12-month warranty when purchased in Oz, offers great value for money.
