I still think they are super-comfortable for walking in and they are the perfect boots for paved roads and cruisy gravels. I wanted to have the maximum protection I could get and I was totally convinced that MX boots would be perfect. You will notice a difference if you are coming from a sports or touring boot as the toe section is a different shape.

Forma was created in 1999, and has since been developing innovative ranges and offers the market a complete product range. Lylebarn Limited is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, register number 654682 and act as a credit broker and not a lender. The EVOlutionary part of it is the new mechanical hinge design for the ankles which allows the boot to bend back to front for walking but gives you the stiffness and protection from sideways movement.The first time I wore them was for a five-hour cross-country and motorway jaunt and they felt as good at the end as the beginning. Slide your feet inside the polymer, memory foam inner and overtime the padding will mould to their shape for a comfortable, supported environment. The Forma Adventure Low boots are a great alternative for a rider who is looking for shorter style dual-sport boots, maybe they ride in hot environments, or their calves just don’t fit tall boots. No matter what boots we choose there will always be compromises we have to make, whether that be for comfort, impact protection, high speed impact, weight, waterproof capabilities, control feel or purely fit.

With a fully waterproof Drytex membrane included, your feet will stay dry in harsh conditions, and the sole offers a great compromise of on-road performance and off-road traction. SBS should ask for reviews of all their products after a substantial period of use (not just ownership). I also found that their sole was too soft and my feet were killing me after standing up on the pegs for longer periods. I havent worn the second pair yet , the first pair are still in great shape , i even go for 3 mile walks in them daily.

For my current style of riding they are the right combination of comfort, protection, weight and importantly they are waterproof. I've dragged them through rain, dirt, and more rain and more dirt, snow and the hot desert - and remarkably they've never once given me any trouble or discomfort. My Adventure boots after a few nights in front of the fire started to split, but Terra no longer have that problem.

I usually struggle with boots that are supposed to support the foot and the leg – skating or ski boots, for example – and can generally only wear them for 30 minutes or so without them beginning to hurt. Bryn has been with ABR since day one, though he took a year-long hiatus in 2011 to ski rep in Meribel. There are also strong heel and toe cups and there is also a triangular TPU protective section on the outside of the edge of the foot. So far I’ve toured in them for about 5000 kms through Europe and took them with me to the GS Trophy in Mongolia where I was invited as a guest.
