About this product
Product description:
TO MAKE A FULL-FEATURED SHOE THAT RIVALS MINIMALIST DESIGNS IN WEIGHT, WE CREATED THE IMPERIAL ROAD SHOE, WHICH FEATURES OUR OWN ULTRALIGHT MONOFILAMENT SYNCHWIRE MESH UPPER THAT FITS AND FEELS LIKE A SECOND SKIN.
The Imperial's Synchwire upper features BOA IP1 dials and soft lace guides, which allow you to adjust your fit on the fly while reaping the benefits of the shoe's light weight. Thermal-welded Teijin TPU adds structural support exactly where it's needed, and a high-modulus Easton® EC90 SLX2 carbon fiber plate provides ultimate stiffness-to-weight for power transfer. Our adjustable SuperNatural Fit footbed system is the final touch, allowing you to customize arch support right out of the box for luxurious comfort and optimal pedaling efficiency.
Features:
BOA IP1 DIALS: BOA IP1 dials deliver fast, effortless, and micro-adjustable 1mm increments at the forefoot and the instep, allowing you to get a precise fit and adjust each zone of the foot on the fly. BOA Fit System dials and laces are guaranteed for the lifetime of the product.
EASTON EC90 SLX2 CARBON COMPOSITE OUTSOLE: We worked closely with the engineering staff at Easton to develop proprietary outsoles that provide the most direct, powerful connection to the pedals without compromising comfort. Using advanced modeling and proprietary fixturing in our extensive test lab, every outsole is engineered to provide ideal stiffness in three zones: toe, arch, and heel, while maintaining the lowest possible weight and stack-height (as low as 6.5mm).
SUPERNATURAL FIT KIT: The Giro SuperNatural Fit System combines a cycling-specific footbed with an adjustable arch support kit. By simply choosing from any of the low, medium, and high arch supports included in the kit, riders and fitters can independently adjust arch support to enhance fit and pedaling efficiency while reducing or eliminating common foot discomforts like hotspots, numbness, and cramping. The system is available in men's and women's sizes and incorporates X-Static® fibers in the footbed to fight odors and bacteria.
SYNCWIRE: Synchwire construction is a stitch-less upper that's vented and reinforced to create a lightweight cycling shoe with incredible airflow and structural integrity. Synchwire is an advanced composite of thermo-bonded film that provides overall durability, a non-woven internal sheet for distributing the force from the BOA Fit System to the upper for direct power transfer, and monofilament mesh for ventilation.
