Any input on these boots would be welcomed.

Thanks.

Go at least one, probably two sizes up. I went up one, they fit now, but took a while to break in. Two up would probably be better (I could wear thicker socks). The sizing was accurate, I checked by measuring, but you need more room in a relatively stiff boot.

Is there a shop in Brisbane that anyone knows of, that stocks these boots?

Hey Guys thanks for the feed back. I am waiting for Brain at Atomic-Moto to see about bring some of these into the country. If that does not work I have a new friend in Oz that said He would help me out.

I have sent several emails to Forma and the Oz retailer to no avail.

The ebay poc was out of my size.

Thanks again and I will let you know how it turns out.

Whitehorse and Indysuperebike both have them; don't have the web link at the present, but you can find them online. Just ordered a pair from Indy; $300, the discount coupon is no longer valid, but they gave me free shipping. Whitehorse was about $20 more expensive, no free shipping.

"old thread bump"

is it me or are these G adventures with a different name? or is there more protection in the heel ankle area? i can't really tell and does anyone know if atomic can get them yet?

Just bumping in case anyone has any recent experience to share.

Just saw this thread in new posts, oddly enough I started it haha.
To sum up my experience with the forma atv...
Very comfortable boot.. waterproof for a while. BUT
When I had to ride for hours in the rain they were not waterproof even when treated. I ended up selling them in the flea market and buying a pair of tcx gor-tex.

I pulled the trigger last week and have to say they are awesome. so comfy and stiff (rough) enough for what I do. I really appreciate them and I'm happy to use them this winter.

Do these boots come in sizes like 6? We wear a 6 in Alpinestars.
