The Carlsbad jacket and pants saved me from serious injury in a recent accident. I recently came off at 80km in outback Australia. Slid down the dirt road with the bike on top of me. I suffered a broken ankle and that is all. No other bruising or grazes, no gravel rash. The broken ankle was due to foot catching the edge of the road and rotating.
I’m in my 3rd season with these boots and they are still holding up very well. Zero complaints and super comfortable!
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.
I am 5’10” and purchased the short inseam pant. The pant fits great, has good room in the thighs and it user friendly. Good ventilation when needed. Great quality!
First ride today. Couldn’t be happier. Totally comfortable from the get go. No “break in” required. The Army/Black……just a beautiful boot.
Thanks Brian.
