Forma Sahara OutDry Cooling Boot

THE Sahara OutDry, the brand new entry in the 2015 Forma boots collection, in cooperation with Inuteq, incorporates the patented Cooling Boot system, which Forma say is the first motorcycle boot which cools itself simply due to water.
This revolutionary system keeps feet cool and dry with the utmost performance and comfort level ensured. Temperature regulation is based on the process of evaporation, which is activated automatically with the use of a limited amount of water (max. 20ml) and allows a long cooling effect. The higher the external temperature is and the airflow intake, and the lower the humidity level, the greater is the overall effect for a cooling capacity that ranges from 5deg C to 15deg C, while the effective duration of the cooling effect varies from a minimum of 8 hours to 72 hours.

This cooling boot was created with front and rear vented material inserts, with ceramic finish for maximum abrasion resistance, which facilitates air intake. The tank, at the rear part of the boot, just needs filling with water and the new patented system will start the foot cooling process.
The Sahara OutDry has all the classic characteristics of the Forma Touring OutDry range. The new and innovative OutDry system includes the use of a waterproof membrane, breathable and 3D laminated directly to the upper to avoid rain or snow penetrating the boot. The boot also features a full grain leather upper and personalised Forma double-density rubber sole, and the rear reflective insert allows for greater visibility during night riding.
Overall comfort and fit are assured due to front and back inserts, which also give added comfort to the shin and calf areas, the Velcro and zip closure, as well as padded memory foam. For safety the boot features externally vented plastic ankle protection, personalised gear pad protection in polyurethane, and internally shin and ankle TPU moulded plastic protections.


The ergonomic Dual Flex midsole, with a stiff mid/back and flexible toe area to facilitate gear changing and easy walking, is in TPU with anti-shock felt covering, designed to minimise vibrations and offer stable foot contact with the bike pedal. The personalised anti-bacterial and replaceable footbed with APS (Air Pump System) and microfibre covering completes the boot. Channels at the centre of the insole expel air uniformly, cushioning and absorbing body weight.
Available in black and in sizes 38 to 47, the Sahara OutDry cooling boot is CE approved, designed and developed in Italy and made in the EU.
