QUOC Escape Road Cycling Shoe Black, 40.0

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""I reach for the Escape Road when I know the route’s going to get a little weird—gritty pavement, some dirt, maybe even a stream crossing. The carbon-composite sole keeps things snappy on smooth stretches, and the upper is tough but super comfy. Plus, that one-dial fit system is just clean and dialed in."" We clip into the QUOC Escape Road Cycling Shoe when adventure leads us beyond smooth tarmac. Built for ultra-distance riders and road explorers, this sleek shoe pairs race-worthy efficiency with real-world durability. From sunrise coffee stops to unexpected gravel detours, Escape Road is designed for the journey—not just the finish line. Its carbon-composite sole keeps power transfer crisp while retaining enough flex for comfort on longer days in the saddle. QUOC’s single-dial closure system gives us micro-adjustable fit with even pressure distribution, while malleable heel padding and a supportive foot-hugging upper ensure all-day wearability. With a reinforced toe guard and a highly resilient, easy-to-clean upper, this shoe keeps looking sharp no matter how many miles—or off-road moments—we throw at it."
