jonnyc21 Posted September 17, 2017 Report Share Posted September 17, 2017 (edited) The no stops are getting harder to find so you might need to consider the new version. Many who have used the no stop do say they are close in fit and function to the original with a few benefits worth consideration. best of luck and my vote is also the Alpinestars with you own insoles.

thai-ty Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Forma Boulders - just because they look old skool. Black or brown, no namby pamby modern designs and colours. And they work. And they are priced right. (me, no, not biased at all). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrturtle Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 forma boulder are comfy but mine come apart at the outside stiched seam after only about 10 trials in less than 6 months. 1 size up from normal shoe size to fit seal skinz and an arch support. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geniejlg Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Hello Asmara, I have been a bit disappointed in the quality of my more recent Alpine Stars both styles they do seem to age and deteriorate very quickly but they are my boot of choice:( Just be wary if ordering on line, if you use the UK size for some reason they seem to ship you the American size which is about 1 to11/2 sizes smaller. Might be better to use the Euro size if they give you a choice in the drop down to select from it will save you the return postage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huski Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Pleased with my Forma Boulders,good fit,comfort and protection.Possibly less feel than my previous Guernsey but not enough to concern me.Youve really got to try several brands to see what suits you best so a dealer rather than internet is worth the extra.You won't know by what suits others 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
