Description
Featuring an ergonomically inspired design and the highest quality materials, the Specialized S-Works Ares Road Cycling Shoes are a state-of-the-art offering.
Two BOA Li2 dials feature per shoe with the top dial being arranged with a three-point anchoring system to reduce pressure hot spots and to lock the fit around the metatarsals for increased pedalling efficiency. The lower BOA dial is positioned nearer the toes and tightens independently to grant a personalised level of fit.
An innovative, tongueless sock-like upper is realised in a super soft and stretchy material to donate sublime comfort. This upper integrates Dyneema fibres, that are 15 times stronger than steel, in refined quantities across specific areas to heighten foot support during high-intensity efforts. The security offered by this upper is complemented by the PadLock heel construction that eliminates slipping at the rear of the foot.
Body Geometry features such as a Longitudinal Arch to prevent foot arch collapse, a knee aligning Varus Wedge and a numbness-reducing Metatarsal Button combine to add up to seven watts to the rider's output and reduce the incidence of overuse injuries. The lightweight FACT Powerline sole completes the S-Works Ares, using its stiffness index of 15.0 to maximise power transfer during sprints and demanding climbs. This sole has titanium nuts that offer good adjustability with three-bolt cleats and a non-slip, replaceable heel pad.
