BioMap Technology
Your energy is precious, never waste it. That’s why Northwave shoes are designed with BioMap technology. Northwave soles, uppers and all their components are anatomically compatible with every cyclist’s feet and are designed to keep the foot in the right position while pedaling, transmitting power directly to the pedals without wasting any energy.
3 Layers Full Carbon Sole
The three carbon layers drastically reduce thickness, decreasing the distance between the foot and pedal and increasing stiffness. AirFlow vents in the sole provide an improved supply of fresh air and prevent the sole from overheating.
Adaptafit
Avantgarde tongueless construction. Adaptafit envelops the foot like a glove, with no pressure points and overlapping material. The elastic mesh perfectly adapts to every shape of the foot, always ensuring maximum comfort.
Asymmetrical Straps
The asymmetrical construction is another innovation of the collection. The central strap is moved to the center so as to follow the anatomy of the foot and reduce the pressure on the side area, because it's particularly sensitive. The straps have been lightened by all superfluous elements, presenting thinner thicknesses and discharged central areas, thereby maintaining maximum grip.
Integrated Heel System
The new unibody construction of the uppers allowed to integrate an efficient heel retention system inside the structure, without the need of external elements. Same efficiency, reduced weight.
Multilayer Thermoweld Construction
New Multilayer construction: a light microfiber is coupled with large thermowelded mesh vent inserts at the same thickness of a traditional monolayer. The result: better comfort and reduced weight.
Self Adjuster Ankle Strap
The ankle strap, made with a soft and ergonomic material, thanks to its construction, always stays centered, avoiding annoying hotspots on the most sensitive areas of the foot.
SLW2 Closure System
The micrometric system S.L.W. 2 (Speed Lace Winch) represents the evolution of the closure system. Maximum precision and modularity. The innovative step by step closure means you can tighten and enlarge the fit in a few moments.
The side button provides a dual function: by pressing, it features a micrometric release and lifting it allows a complete and immediate opening of the shoe. More lightweight and thinner.
