I was having a hard time finding in between sizes in these Forma boots. Atomic Moto gets them directly from Forma so you can have it your way, to steal a phrase. The boots are plenty tough for street riding and occasional offroad. The toe box is roomy and are more walkable than MX boots.
Fit and finish on these boots is top-notch. Bravo Forma. I have a size 9 wide foot, and the 43 fits me perfectly, especially the width. These are a great mid-weight medium duty enduro boot that works well with my Leatt knee/shin guards. They were a bit stiff out of the box, but have started to break in nicely after a few rides. One a street ride on my GS, the other a longer enduro ride on my KTM. The boots are comfortable on and off the bikes. Have not ridden in the rain yet, so I cant comment on waterproofness. So far I highly recommend these boots.
Forma Terra Evo Low Boots
I bought the Low boots so I could use them both for the street/ADV riding and light off-roading. If I was doing more off road riding, the tall would have been considered.
I used Atomic Moto recommendations for fit, which vary a bit from other vendors for the Forma boots. For me, they are the right size, a 47 and I wear a 12, they do seem to run a bit wide. Thicker riding socks works as a solution.
They took almost 500 miles for break-in, and now they are super comfortable to wear.
They are waterproof! Two days in a row of riding 250+ miles in hard rain and no leaks.
They are a bit heavy for walking in, but I wanted the stitched on HD sole vs. the rubber one on the Forma Adventure boot. The more I wore them, the better they got, but you are still aware you are wearing a heavy boot. The tread is nice in gravel/dirt when putting a foot down.
Sorry I waited so long to buy these....
Third pair of Formas and I've gotta say these shorties are a winner! First time buying a low boot and I wish all my shoes were as comfortable! Mixed rider here and these have held up great in the dirt so far - offering enough support and stiffness where needed. The soul is a big improvement over the Adventures in my opinion however both are great boots! Five stars on price point too. Use Nixwax on the leather and you can't go wrong! Fits true to size as well - i'm in between a 10.5-11 and 45's are perfect! Hope this helped!
Great padding around the ankle. I have a wide foot and these fit great.
A benchmark boot lives up to the hype. OK, we know that Gaerne makes a premium motorcycle boot, and the Balance Oiled are, if not their apex offering, pretty darn close to it. It is genuinely hard to describe how beautiful these boots are until you hold them in your hand. Everything about them oozes quality and attention to detail. At the same time, these boots are clean and simple. Everything you need and nothing you don't. Instantly comfortable and the gum rubber sole is awesome on and off the bike. I didn't purchase these for off-road use because they don't offer the requisite level of protection for anything more than a fire road. For me, these are an urban or weekend street boot that feels good, looks good and does everything I need it to. And boy are they a looker. People who know nothing about motorcycling comment on these boots. The consensus is that they are "wicked cool".
The Gaerne Oiled Leather Balance boots are a pretty complete package out of the box, but swapping out the OEM insoles for these babies is a very nice upgrade. Super comfortable and takes an already awesome pair of boots to the next level.
Fit was true to size. Very comfortable so far. Havenot hit any water yet so not sure how waterproof they are. Very happy with the purchase so far. Would recommend them.
You guys are always fair and consistent. Good company to deal with.
