This Forma Hyper Dry Boots review looks at a leather urban boot with a zip for access, laces for adjustment and a Drytex waterproof liner. Its reinforced heel and toe areas and internal ankle protection make secure fit important despite the casual shape.

Zip access, lace tension and midsole support
The zip and lace arrangement lets you set tension across the foot before using the zip for entry. Try both boots with your riding socks and check that the heel remains secure as you lift your foot towards the gear lever. Keep the laces and loose ends retained as instructed so that the closure stays clear of the motorcycle’s moving parts and controls.
The boot combines internal ankle protection with external heel protection and reinforcement at the heel and toe. Underfoot, the TPU Dual Flex structure works with an EVA midsole and a replaceable antibacterial insole. Judge the complete setup during a short indoor walk and in your riding position, rather than assuming the urban styling means trainer-like flexibility. The Drytex lining provides the stated weather barrier, and the leather exterior still needs appropriate cleaning and drying.
