From the outset of the Torch 3.0 Road shoe design process our goal was to create a performance offering as feature-packed as any top-end shoe. The challenge however was pulling this off at a palatable price. In order to achieve this we utilized three strategically placed materials on the uppers that are welded together—TPU & mesh in the front & synthetic leather in the rear. This makes for a more comfortable & supportive front of the shoe. A stiff rear & heel cup meanwhile lock down your heel & keep all of your watts going into the pedals as efficiently as possible. This refined upper is combined with our legendary FACT carbon fibre sole to further ensure an efficient power transfer. Finally we topped the Torch 3.0 off with two Boa S2-SV Snap dials for zonal closure & a precise fit that leads to all-day comfort. Body Geometry sole construction & footbeds are ergonomically designed & scientifically tested to boost power increase efficiency & reduce chance of injury by optimizing hip knee & foot alignment. FACT™ carbon composite sole & torsion box construction is directionally rigid for outstanding power transfer: Stiffness Index 8.5. Dual Boa S2-SV Snap dial closure for on-the-fly micro-adjustment backed by the Boa Lifetime guarantee. Mesh TPU & synthetic layer upper are placed in specific zones for comfort & lock-down & are thermobonded for a superior fit. Standard Fit for support & all-day comfort. Three-bolt cleat pattern fits all major road pedals. Approximate weight: 248g (1/2 pair Size 42)
