Product Information
Full details
The Forma Jasper HDry Motorcycle Boots are designed for male riders seeking premium comfort and all-weather protection on touring journeys. Their key benefit is the Outdry® waterproofing system, which keeps feet dry and boots lightweight even in wet conditions. A potential caveat is that the premium features may come at a higher price point compared to basic riding boots. These boots feature a full-grain leather upper, certified protection, a touring-specific sole, and a convenient Velcro and zip closure for easy on and off.

FAQs
Are the Forma Jasper HDry boots suitable for hot weather riding?
While the HDry® membrane offers breathability, full-grain leather boots can be warmer in very high temperatures compared to highly ventilated mesh boots. They are best suited for moderate to cooler climates or when all-weather protection is prioritized.
How do I choose the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer and measure your foot accurately. The UK 8 size mentioned is equivalent to European size 42. Ensure a snug fit without being overly tight, allowing room for riding socks.
Can the internal insole be replaced?
The boots come with a technical insole designed for comfort and support. While not explicitly designed for easy removal and replacement, in most cases, aftermarket insoles can be fitted if needed, provided they are of a similar profile.
What is the warranty period for these boots?
Information regarding the specific warranty period is typically provided by the retailer at the time of purchase. It is recommended to check with your point of sale for details on warranty coverage.
Are these boots waterproof or water-resistant?
These boots feature the HDry® waterproof and breathable membrane, meaning they are waterproof. The Outdry® system actively prevents water from penetrating the boot.
How durable is the PU shifter pad?
The PU shifter pad is designed to withstand the friction and abrasion from gear shifting, contributing to the longevity of the boot in that specific high-wear area.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable on first wear
The boots are made of full-grain leather and require a break-in period. Wear them around the house for short periods to allow them to mold to your feet. Gradual wear on shorter rides will further enhance comfort.
Water seeping into the boots despite HDry® membrane
Ensure the zip is fully closed and the Velcro straps are secured properly, as these are external points where water could potentially enter. If water ingress continues, the membrane might be compromised; contact customer support.
Difficulty zipping the boots
Ensure no fabric is caught in the YKK® zip. Apply a small amount of wax or zipper lubricant to the zip teeth if it feels stiff.
Reduced grip on the sole
Clean the sole thoroughly with water and a brush to remove any oil, mud, or debris that may have accumulated, which can reduce traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Forma Jasper HDry Motorcycle Boots require no complex setup. Upon receiving them, try them on to ensure a proper fit. Adjust the Velcro straps and zip closure for a secure and comfortable feel before your first ride.
Compatibility: These boots are designed for motorcycle use and are compatible with most motorcycle gear. The PU shifter pad is placed to work with standard motorcycle gear shifters. They are suitable for various riding styles, particularly touring and commuting.
Care: To maintain the condition and performance of your Forma Jasper boots:
- Cleaning: Wipe the full-grain leather upper with a clean, damp cloth to remove dirt and debris after each ride. For stubborn dirt, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: The Outdry® membrane is inherently waterproof. Periodically check the leather for any signs of drying out and apply a suitable leather conditioner designed for waterproof footwear to maintain flexibility and water resistance.
- Sole Care: Clean the rubber sole with water and a brush to remove any trapped debris.
- Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape.
