Specialized S-Works Torch Cycling Shoe Black, 45.5

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""These are the best-fitting road shoes I’ve ever worn. They feel weightless, disappear under power, and the dual BOA system fine-tunes pressure perfectly across the foot. The updated carbon sole is crazy stiff but still comfortable over long rides—it’s a true race shoe that doesn’t punish your feet.""Specialized’s S-Works Torch Cycling Shoe redefines what it means to ride fast and comfortable. Every element of this elite road shoe is engineered for efficiency, from its featherweight carbon sole to its precision-adjustable dual BOA S3 dials. The upper adapts to your foot’s shape using zonal reinforcement for support where you need it and flex where you don’t—resulting in a nearly custom fit straight out of the box. The reimagined Body Geometry footbed works with a supportive asymmetrical heel cup to promote natural knee alignment and maximize power transfer through every pedal stroke. Inside, the ultra-stiff carbon I-Beam sole keeps efficiency high without unnecessary weight, ensuring energy goes straight to the pedals. Whether you’re lining up for race day or chasing new PRs, the S-Works Torch delivers podium-level performance for every ride."
