Louis Garneau Titanium Shoes Men's

Self sponsored roadies looking for a shoe that's above mid range but a step below pro model cost need look no further than Louis Garneau's new Titanium Shoes. With trickle down technology from the top of the line Course Air Lite including the same carbon soles the Titanium is a strong option for cyclists who put serious miles on their bikes each week, as well suited to racing as it is to regular training. Garneau constructs the Titanium with a heat molded synthetic upper, free of seaming or stitching that could cause pressure points. The Canadian firm also adds strategically placed vents to promote airflow and wick moisture away from your feet. To ensure that your feet and heels don't slip around wasting valuable watts, Garneau lines the Titanium with unidirectional, anti slip spandex, which works with its HRS 100 heel retention technology to lock narrow heels firmly in place for the duration of your ride. The Titanium relies on three hook and loop straps across the top of the shoe for a consistently secure fit across your metatarsals, arch, and instep. Within the shoe, the arch receives more customizable support than a typical floppy EVA insole with Garneau's Transfo 3D insole, which includes options for low, medium, and high arch profiles for you to choose from depending on your arch shape. The added support reduces biomechanical inefficiencies, adding comfort and lessening the likelihood of arch and foot injury. Once you've found the right fit, attach the Transfo 3D to either the Ergo Air Cool Stuff or Hot Stuff insoles, depending on what temperatures you're riding through. Underneath your foot, Garneau's top of the line Carbon HM X Lite outsole provides unyielding rigidity throughout your pedal stroke, reducing watts lost to flex between your foot and the pedal. Its slim, 4. 3mm profile keeps your feet closely connected to the pedals, and the mounting hardware allows for adjustable cleats to be moved up to 7mm in each direction.
