The boots aren't yet broken in as I'm getting some rubbing above the right ankle. I'm guessing with time and wear, this will resolve itself. Otherwise, a well constructed boot. Sizing per staff recommendation was spot on.
Bought these to replace 6 inch Danner boots I wear during the summer. The Danners although good for walking leak while riding. I also have a pair of Dianese GT fulcrums which are great boots but are not great for camping. MY actual adventure riding is limited but wanted something with better traction than the Dianese and I do a good bit of moto camping but dont want to look like too much of a poser in full height boots. My Klim outrider jeans fit nicely over these. I wear a 11 1/2 to 12 shoe. 12 in hiking and running shoes and 11 1/2 in others. I went with a 46 knowing the majority of what I have is a 46 with the exception of my back packing boots which are 47s. Fit is very good and I think a 47 would have been a little too big. One pre requisite I have is I put green super feet in all my shoes except running and they feel great with them. Yes , at first they feel like ski boots
and are a little clompy but are already loosening. To sum it up I think the support they provide and the fit will be perfect for my gravel road, camping , road riding.
I already own Alpinestars motocross boots and Corozal adventure boots for my Harley Pan America Special off-road. I wanted a pair of more comfortable low boots for commuting and non-technical dirt road type riding. I tried my normal size in this boot with another dealer as well as the little sister to my Corozals …… the Belize. The Belize had quality build issues that caused a hot spot and the Formas were too big. I called Atomic Moto and Brian took the time to discuss my needs, what I had already tried, my unique challenge with a small volume foot with narrow heel and wide forefoot. He recommended what I would have thought to be a too small in the Forma Low Adventure and his recommendation was spot on. He suggested I pull out the footbed and that would be how the boot would feel after broken in. After breaking in - he was spot on and they are very comfortable and just what I was looking for. So if you are looking for a low boot that offers some limited protection but is comfortable for all day on the bike as well as walking, hiking, camping off the bike, the Forma Liw Adventure boots are great! What was more exciting was his recommendation for the Gaerne Balance Oiled boots; something I hadn’t considered but wow I’m glad I did. They’re fantastic - see my review there.
Atomic-Moto knows their boots. I have an abnormally wide right foot (5")due to a bone growth from a previous accident. We tried the Forma Terra Evo Low Boots in my normal EU size 43 but they were too tight in the toe box area. I returned them and discussed my issues with a customer service rep and he asked me to send him a pic of my feet. After looking at it and we were done joking about the massive ball of bone, he suggested I size up to a 44 in the Forma Adventure Lows. They fit well and are breaking in quickly. There is no perfect solution for my wide feet situation but this is close. Since most manufacturers of Adventure boots do not offer a wide size it is very difficult to order boots online to see if they fit, and then have to mail them back when they don't fit. What a pain. I would recommend calling Atomic-Moto and speaking with a boot expert before purchasing boots online if you have wide feet. Awesome customer service.
Just took my first rose with new boots. Bryan was very helpful with sizing and his recommendation was spot on. Boots fit well and plenty of width which was what I was looking for. Boots provide good protection . Toe box is a little tall so shifting was awkward at first but as ride went on I got used to it. With more miles I'm sure I'll grow accustomed to the boots. Overall quality looks good. Thanks again for the help with sizing. I believe that made a big difference
Must thank Brian for recommending the Tech 7 boots, the design allows easy shifting without any motorcycle shift lever adjustment, 1st day in them was all day long…very comfortable. What a great experience shopping at Atomic Moto!
Brian was super, super knowledgeable on these boots and had answers to all of my sizing and fit questions- really helped me to believe buying these boots what the right choice for my style of riding. And they are. Great support, perfect fit, great quality- I have no doubt these will last me years to come. Definitely much, much better for my needs than the ADV style boots I had before. So far they've been perfect for enduro and trail riding on my Beta 300, but the hinge still means they're comfortable enough to wear on long distance ADV rides on my T7.
The boots aren't yet broken in as I'm getting some rubbing above the right ankle. I'm guessing with time and wear, this will resolve itself. Otherwise, a well constructed boot. Sizing per staff recommendation was spot on.
I have had an opportunity to ride over 300 miles in these boots. They are breaking in nicely. One of these rides was 200 miles and involved some off pavement riding. These boots are comfortable for all day use. The soles give really great grip on all surfaces and they inspire confidence. It takes a little time to adjust to shifting with them, but that is to be expected. I had to do some walking and they are fine as long as it isn't a multi-mile hike. The only issue I had was the top buckle unbuckled on the top right boot when I mounted the bike twice. That was probably my fault. They are not optimal for running around the city, but that is not what they are designed for. I will be looking for another boot for casual riding. Overall they are a great touring boot that can be worn for hours and offer really good protection. I expect they will get even better with more use. I would recommend them and buy them again. High quality at a fair price. Thanks Brian for the advice!
Brian at Atomic Moto is simply the best in the business - took the time to advise me on the boots for my type of riding and spent almost an hour on the phone. His customer service is legendary and the reason why I’m a repeat customer of his for moto boots
