It all adds up to a shoe that disappears on your foot, yet begs to be seen.Like every shoe we make, the S-Works Torch Lace starts with Body Geometry - identify a problem, solve it with design, validate it with science to improve comfort, increase performance, and reduce the chance of injury for every rider.Comfort: The S-Works Torch Lace utilizes our new forefoot shape 4mm wider than the S-Works 7 based on extensive 3D foot scans and Retul data. The upper features remapped zonal layering throughout.

An asymmetric heel counter reduces hard touch points against the ankle, and still delivers knee stability validated by our Human Performance team.Efficiency: Every Body Geometry shoe optimizes ankle, knee, and hip alignment for a stable and pedal stroke with our patented Varus Wedge, a 1.5mm outward tilt to the outsole.
