My last boots Sidi Vortice and as great of a specimen as they are were always a bit tight. It felt that it got worse over time, I degrees. The Forma easily match the protect of the sidi. Plus SOOO much quicker to put on and less to do for a secure/protected feel. Circulation is Fantastic, even on a hot day my tootsies came out dry. The sole air pump definitely works great. The width is much better with my toes and width of my foot screaming with joy. The only short coming was breaking them in. It took a few times of riding with them, yet each time was noticeably improved. The part of the boot at the hinge was pretty tight at 1st and only noticed it when walking. While riding I forgot the hinge. I am glad I switched to Forma!
I got to try my new Forma Ice Pro boots this weekend at Putnam Park, Indiana.
What a relief from my old Alpine Stars!
I have wide feet and the Alpine Stars have been crushing my toes for years.
With the help of Brian and his recommendations, I ended up with a Euro size 44 Forma boot.
With his knowledge of boots he guided me to a product that had more toe space than other brands.
He also recommended going up one size from what I normally would get.
The result is that I now have a boot that is as comfortable as slippers, and easier to put on.
They felt great right from the start, no problems of any kind!
Can't thank Brian enough and will go to Atomic Moto for all my boot needs; road race, dirt or otherwise!
These are the best boots I have ever had on my feet while riding.
They fit great, and look great.
I will only wear Forma boots from now on and I will only buy my boots from Atomic Moto.
Brian was super, super knowledgeable on these boots and had answers to all of my sizing and fit questions- really helped me to believe buying these boots what the right choice for my style of riding. And they are. Great support, perfect fit, great quality- I have no doubt these will last me years to come. Definitely much, much better for my needs than the ADV style boots I had before. So far they've been perfect for enduro and trail riding on my Beta 300, but the hinge still means they're comfortable enough to wear on long distance ADV rides on my T7.
The boots aren't yet broken in as I'm getting some rubbing above the right ankle. I'm guessing with time and wear, this will resolve itself. Otherwise, a well constructed boot. Sizing per staff recommendation was spot on.
I have had an opportunity to ride over 300 miles in these boots. They are breaking in nicely. One of these rides was 200 miles and involved some off pavement riding. These boots are comfortable for all day use. The soles give really great grip on all surfaces and they inspire confidence. It takes a little time to adjust to shifting with them, but that is to be expected. I had to do some walking and they are fine as long as it isn't a multi-mile hike. The only issue I had was the top buckle unbuckled on the top right boot when I mounted the bike twice. That was probably my fault. They are not optimal for running around the city, but that is not what they are designed for. I will be looking for another boot for casual riding. Overall they are a great touring boot that can be worn for hours and offer really good protection. I expect they will get even better with more use. I would recommend them and buy them again. High quality at a fair price. Thanks Brian for the advice!
Brian at Atomic Moto is simply the best in the business - took the time to advise me on the boots for my type of riding and spent almost an hour on the phone. His customer service is legendary and the reason why I’m a repeat customer of his for moto boots
Super comfortable right out of the box. I wear a 2XL and I have issues finding a good fitting helmet. Fit and finish is tops in the helmet business. Highly recommended!
