Evofiber
Evofiber combines the best properties of mesh and microfiber for a fabric that repels water and improves breathability throughout the shoe. By eliminating the extra seams and glue required to join mesh panels together, durability, comfort and weight can be dramatically improved. Evofiber is optimal for maintaining the shoe's shape, is quick-drying and easy to clean.
Super Natural Fit System
The Giro SuperNatural Fit System has an adjustable arch support with low, medium and high support. When the arch support is adjusted, fit and pedaling efficiency are improved while reducing the risk of chafing, numbness and cramps.
EASTON® Carbon Composite Outsole
Giro teamed up with engineers at Easton® to develop outsoles that provide direct and powerful connection to the pedals without compromising comfort. With advanced modeling and laboratory testing, each outsole is engineered for perfect stiffness in the three zones of the foot; toe, arch and heel – combined with the lowest possible weight and height (as low as 6,5mm).
VIBRAM®
Vibram® is the world leader in high-performance soles with advanced rubber components. IdroGrip, is the softest component, developed specifically for flat pedaling in dry and wet conditions. Megagrip is a high-performance component with higher wear resistance and only minimally less friction compared to IdroGrip. Vibram soles are produced with three goals: to guarantee the best performance, maximum comfort and quality over time.
