Forma Boots

Terra adventure and Sahara OutDry Cooling Boots



THE Sahara OutDry, developed for the 2015 Forma boots xcollection in cooperation with Inuteq, incorporates its patented Cooling Boot system, which Forma say is the first motorcycle boot which cools itself simply by using water.




The company says 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 by adding a limited amount of water (max. 20ml) to the tank at the rear of the boot. The higher the external temperature and the airflow intake, and the lower the humidity level, the greater the overall effect for a cooling capacity that ranges from 5deg C to 15deg C, and lasts from 8 to 72 hours. The boot has front and rear vented material inserts, with ceramic finish.

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 with a the rear reflective insert.

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, gear pad protection in polyurethane, and internal shin and ankle TPU moulded plastic protections.




The new Terra Adventure/Enduro/Quad/ATV riding boot has a personalised sole designed, engineered and developed for Adventure and Enduro riding, made from an extra grip rubber and stitched like traditional motorcycle boots.



Externally there is injection-moulded protective plastics in critical areas like the gear change, ankle and heel areas. Inside the boot, ankles and shins are further protected by TPU moulded plastic and memory foam padding. The upper is full grain oil treated leather, which has a rear reflective insert for increased visibility and a practical adjustable Velcro closure in the calf area. The boot is equipped with Forma Drytex tubular lining that guarantees waterproofness and breathability.


Both boots feature Dual Flex midsole (stiff at the rear and flexible at the front), are in TPU and covered with anti-shock material. Both also have anti-bacterial and replaceable footbeds with APS (Air Pump System). Channels at the centre of the insole expel air uniformly, cushioning and absorbing body weight.



They are both CE approved, designed and developed in Italy and made in the EU.
