Excellent boots and great help from Brian!
Wore them indoors for a couple hours before I knew they'd fit. The forefoot needed to stretch a little. Viola, comfy boots.
Than you,
Bruce
Love working with Atomic, to assure my US foot finds a correct EU boot!
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.
Glad I purchased these boots! I was considering Forma Adventure boots but I was concerned about the tall sole for my intended use. I won’t be hiking in the Dakar boot but it’s certainly comfortable enough for short walking. Worth considering if you don’t require a riding boot more aimed at hiking.
The fit was right on. Some 10.5s are a bit snug but these 45s, for me, seem between a 10.5 and an 11. The form is what I was looking for; a slim sole and toe along with ankle protection that doesn't restrict a little flex. 4 and a half stars on the functions of riding and walking and
staying dry. Easy to adjust to shifting and braking feel, good support standing on pegs, no hint of a leak when submerged, only a knock on the left boot sole not being perpendicular to the upper. Kinda throws off my gait and stresses my knee a bit. Your mileage may vary.
Brian was awesome working with me to find boots that would best fit my wide shaped feet. These are incredible boots.
Wore this jacket on a 700 mile trip around southern AZ. Very comfortable.Very well made. Lots of zipper compartments. Breaths extremely well especially in the AZ heat. Roomy enough that I was able to wear a jacket underneath while riding through high country in the cool mornings. 10 out of 10 recommend
Slim toe is a big improvement. Best dual-sport/ADV touring boot on the market. Runs a size small.
I just wanted to share my experience with the Forma Adventure Low boots. Finding gear is usually a nightmare for me because I have a 11 4E foot, but after talking to Brian, he thought the size 12 or 46 would be my best bet.
He nailed it!
The left foot felt great from the start. My right foot has always been a bit bigger, but after just a short time wearing them around the house and breaking them in, I have no issues at all. The heel locks in very nicely and my feet don’t "slip" around inside, yet there is still all kinds of adjustment left on the buckles.
I took them out for a short 30 minute ride the other day and 4 hours later they still felt great! If you are looking for new boots, talk to Brian—the dude knows his boots!
Love the boots so far. Comfy out of the box and great feel in the soles.
