SPECIALIZED ARES S-WORKS SNEAKERS

An all-new, patent-pending closure system, a Dyneema-reinforced® toeless sock, and an ultra-stiff FACT Powerline™ carbon outsole eliminates foot roll, reduces pressure on tendons, and transfers every gram of power to the pedals for unprecedented performance and comfort.

It's 1% faster than any shoe we've ever made, and at the finish line, that's all that matters.

• The key to greater comfort, fewer injuries, and increased energy production comes from our ergonomically designed, scientifically tested Body Geometry features: longitudinal arch, varus angle, and custom metatarsal cushion insoles. These three features align the hip, foot, and knee, while also limiting medial/lateral knee movement and maintaining good circulation to the toes.
• The patent-pending closure design secures the foot during extreme efforts, out of the saddle, locking the metatarsals and preventing lateral turning.
• Dyneema® is sandwiched between layers of synthetic material and TPU to create no-stretch zones for maximum connection and comfort.
• Our stiffest and lightest carbon outsole, FACT Powerline™, maximizes energy transfer: Stiffness Index 15.
• Standalone BOA® Li2 Fit system for on-the-go micro-adjustment, backed by the Boa® Guarantee.
• The PadLock™ heel construction cradles the heel and has been shown to significantly improve acceleration.
• Replaceable non-slip heel with internal screws for added safety.
• Form Fit with ample toe room, the ultimate in comfort.
• The titanium alloy cleat nuts can be rotated to position the cleats 5mm backwards and fit all main 3-hole road pedals.
• Approximate weight: 220g (1/2 pair, Size 42)
