Forma Motocross & Adventure Boots: Predator 2.0, Terra Evo, Adventure Low, Terrain & Off-Road Boots Made in Italy | BTO Sports
Italian Built.
Track Ready.
Forma was founded in 1999 by Ivano Binotto in Altivole, in the Treviso region of northeastern Italy, the same part of the country that has produced skilled footwear craftsmen for generations. The lineup covers motocross, enduro, adventure, and dual-sport boots built with the same Italian construction standards as brands at higher price points. Forma is the official boot supplier for the MXGP Motocross World Championship. At BTO Sports, we carry the Predator 2.0, Terra Evo, and Adventure lineup.

Why we like Forma
Forma gets overlooked because they are not the first brand most riders think of when they start shopping for boots, and that is to their advantage at the register. The Predator 2.0 is a full MX boot with the FCS ankle protection system, replaceable alloy buckles, and a toe box that fits riders who have struggled with narrower Italian boot brands. It competes directly with boots from Alpinestars and Gaerne at a lower price and does not give much away on construction. The Terra Evo is one of the best adventure and enduro boots available: a deep shin plate, thick leather upper, and Forma's Drytex waterproof lining make it genuinely capable in technical terrain. Forma also replaces buckles: replacement hardware is stocked and available, which means a crash that breaks a buckle does not end the boot's life. The MXGP official supplier status is not a marketing decoration. These are boots used at the highest level of the sport.
FAQ
-
The Predator 2.0 is Forma's primary motocross boot, built for track riding with the FCS ankle protection system, four buckle closures, and a stiff sole designed for peg feel and impact protection. The Terra Evo is designed for enduro, dual-sport, and adventure riding with a deeper shin plate, thicker leather upper, and a more walkable sole for riders who spend time off the bike on technical terrain. The Adventure is a lighter adventure touring boot focused on comfort over long distances with Drytex waterproof construction and a sole that works on and off the bike. Each boot is built for a specific type of riding and there is not much overlap between them.
-
Forma sizing is generally close to true EU size but varies slightly by model. The Predator 2.0 runs slightly generous and some riders go half a size down from their measured EU size. The Terra Evo fits true to size for most riders. The Adventure models can run slightly small and some riders prefer to size up one EU from the chart. Forma has a wider toe box than most Italian boot brands, which makes a meaningful difference for riders with wider feet who have struggled with Sidi or Gaerne in the past. We recommend measuring foot length in centimeters and checking Forma's size chart before ordering.
-
Yes. Forma serves as the official boot supplier for the FIM MXGP Motocross World Championship, which means their boots are used in the most competitive outdoor motocross racing series in the world. That partnership is not a title sponsorship where a brand pays to attach its logo to an event. It is a functional boot supply relationship where Forma footwear is what championship-level riders and team mechanics trust at the highest level of the sport.

Forma consistently earns comparison to Alpinestars Tech 7 and Sidi Crossfire 3 at prices that come in below both. The Predator 2.0 competes with the Tech 7 on ankle protection and construction quality while sitting lower on the price scale. Against Sidi, Forma offers a wider toe box in the standard fit and comparably replaceable buckles, though Sidi's full parts system is more comprehensive. Against Gaerne, Forma is lighter and slightly more flexible while Gaerne offers the Goodyear Welted resolable sole. For riders who want Italian-made quality without the top-tier pricing of Alpinestars Tech 10 or Gaerne SG-22, Forma is one of the clearest value arguments in the boot category.
-
Yes. Several Forma adventure and dual-sport models use Drytex, Forma's waterproof and breathable lining, as standard construction. The Adventure Dry, Terra Evo Low, and select adventure models include Drytex as a built-in feature. The waterproofing is designed to handle full immersion in streams and extended riding in rain without saturating the interior. For riders who do long days in variable conditions, the Drytex models handle wet terrain significantly better than non-waterproofed boots.
-
Yes. Forma stocks replacement buckles and hardware for their main boot models including S-Lock alloy buckle sets for the Predator and other performance boots. The lowest buckle on most Forma MX boots is also shielded by a TPU protector to reduce crash damage to that high-impact point. Replaceable buckles extend the life of the boot meaningfully and are available through BTO Sports. If you have a Forma boot with a broken buckle, contact our team and we can get you the right replacement part.
-
Yes, and it is one of Forma's strongest categories. The Terra Evo is widely regarded as one of the best enduro and adventure boots available at its price point, with a deeper shin plate and thicker leather than many adventure boots that sacrifice protection for walkability. The Adventure series covers riders who prioritize comfort over longer distances with genuine off-road capability. For dual-sport riders who split time between dirt and pavement, the Adventure Low or Terra Evo Low offer a lower-cut profile that works well in both environments.
-
Yes. Forma is one of the better options for riders with wider feet among Italian boot brands. The toe box is genuinely roomier than Sidi's standard Crossfire fit and is closer in width to Gaerne or Alpinestars. The Predator 2.0 and Terra Evo both accommodate wider foot profiles without requiring the TA variant that Sidi uses to address the same issue. If you have had trouble with Italian boots feeling tight across the forefoot, Forma is worth trying before assuming the problem is with the EU sizing itself.
