Specialized Torch 3.0 Road Cycling Shoes - Hyper

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.

For the Torch 3.0, three strategically placed materials were used on the uppers that are welded together - TPU and mesh in the front and synthetic leather in the rear. This makes a more comfortable and supportive front of the shoe. A stiff rear and heel cup lock down your heel and keep all of your watts going into the pedals as efficiently as possible. This refined upper is combined with a legendary FACT carbon fibre sole to further ensure an efficient power transfer. The Torch 3.0 was topped off with two Boa® S2-SV Snap dials for zonal closure, and a precise fit that leads to all-day comfort.

• Body Geometry sole construction and footbeds are ergonomically designed and scientifically tested to boost power, increase efficiency, and reduce chance of injury by optimising hip, knee, and foot alignment.
• FACT™ carbon composite sole and 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, and synthetic layer upper are placed in specific zones for comfort and lock-down, and are thermobonded for a superior fit.
• Standard Fit for support and all-day comfort.
• Three-bolt cleat pattern fits all major road pedals.
• Approximate weight: 248g (1/2 pair, Size 42)
