cleanorbust Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 Been using the Wulf ones for a couple of years, seem to be quite good enough and the price is right (I think you've got to look at a pair of boots as a consumable purchase which is going to need replacing sooner or later).

hulmie Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 I've got the wolf ones and they've been very comfortable, they do go a bit soft when wet don't know if it's because of the bare leather. One thing I would suggest is to try before you buy, I once saw a great deal on some mx boots (for enduro and trail riding) at a show think they were gearne boots and they were to narrow and the next size up were like clown shoes so ended up getting alpinestars which were great and have lasted over 10 yrs Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huski Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 Get the wolf brown leather ones and neatsfoot oil them,they'll take a bit of breaking in,after that they'll be fine and you ll have saved a few quid.If you can't can't be doing with that the formats are fine straight away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fivebrick Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 Get the ones you get the best deal on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fivebrick Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 Yes if you're open to them Gaerne's are nice, not bad price wise and very comfortable. Soles are soft and some pegs can eat through them quickly but Shoe Goo works so well for that. Great boots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

okjc250 Posted October 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2015 Forma boots arrived yesterday. They feel nice and comfy loads of flex and feel light Looking forward to using them on the bike Need to get some products for after they have been washed now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beta_blocker Posted November 1, 2015 Report Share Posted November 1, 2015 Got a pair of Formas about 1.5 months ago and have probably put 40+ hours on them (in them). Love the way they feel and fit. Wish the buckle parts weren't made of plastic as that always seems like a weak point. Coated them with Sno-seal to help protect the leather and make them more water resistant. They seem to be wearing really well and I like the area in the center of the sole that is a different rubber compound and smoother then the rest of the rubber sole it allows better movement on the pegs and wears less. Got them from Dirt Riders West here in AZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okjc250 Posted January 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 Have answered my own question here, I have the Forma boulders and my mate has wulf boots. Just done our first trial (badly) and mine are great but his have worn a hole on the inside LH boot about where your heal is FIRST RIDE!!!!!!
