Forma Adventure Low boots in black

The Forma Adventure Low is a classic, adventure boot, albeit one configured as an ankle boot. So, first question, what is an adventure boot? Well it’s a boot designed for the adventure bike rider who wants the ‘adventure’ look, but who is prepared to trade protection for a bit of extra comfort.  The Adventure Dry Low is a pretty tough and rugged short boot, but it’s going to be the kind of boot that you could still walk around in after a long day in the saddle. A short, touring boot might conceivably be more comfortable, but a boot like this will be more protective. And, of course, a boot like this will look much better on an adventure bike.

The boot is made from a full-grain, oiled leather. It has a rugged sole that is going to provide grip on even the most unreliable of terrain. The boot fastens by means of two, adjustable, buckle straps. The top of the shaft can be tightened by means of a Velcro flap.

For comfort you get padded, concertina banding in the heel and in the forefoot. There’s a hard, TPU protector as a gear change pad. There are protective pucks in the ankles. And you get some elasticated shirring at the top of the shaft for a bit of extra comfort as you lean into the boot.

The boot has a Drytex lining, so this is certainly going to be a waterproof boot. It also has a changeable, anti-shock, inner sole.
