The S-Works Torch is the latest evolution of the winningest footwear in cycling. Using Body Geometry together with biomimicry data science and obsessive craftsmanship we engineered a shoe so thoughtfully constructed that you’ll forget you’re wearing it. Leveraging data science Specialzied refined every detail of the S-Works Torch’s upper for improved fit and performance. The BOA® cable is shifted down and angled preventing lift on the ball of the foot and delivering power-enhancing structure while eliminating unwanted pressure or pinching. Adaptive materials allow natural movement of the foot where needed for comfort while data-driven zonal reinforcement keeps the foot secured for crisp power delivery and optimal efficiency. Guided by more than 100000 foot scans from our RETÜL fit data Specialized recognized that both a standard and a wide carbon base plate would best serve the spectrum of human foot shapes. An internal I-Beam adds stiffness and strength eliminating the need for additional bracing. The result is a 20-gram weight reduction enhanced efficiency and immediate power transfer. Following RETÜL biomechanical data Specialized created an asymmetric heel cup that supports natural knee alignment and delivers the positive hold riders love while enhancing comfort by accommodating more room for the Achilles heel. The S-Works Torch is scientifically crafted to disappear on your feet and off the front. New upper features reinforcement in key zones while also offering adaptie fit zones to create a disappearing fit on the foot. Based on data gathered from Retül foot scans the new base plate is 4mm wider at the ball than the previous generation of S-Works 7 shoe. By optimizing its constructiuon the new carbon plate is 20g lighter than the S-Works 7. An internal 'I-Beam' ensures it maintains the same stiffness as the previous generation. An updated last makes use of Retül data to better match the shape of riders' feet sloping more towards the lateral side to give a snug close-to-foot fit. Asymmetrical heel counter supports the medial side while removing material from the lateral side allowing for a lower collar. Updated BOA® cable routing improves lockdown while reducing pressure across anterior ankle ligaments. Independent alloy BOA® S3-Snap Fit System for on-the-fly micro-adjustment backed by the BOA® Guarantee. Titanium alloy cleat nuts can rotate to position pedal/cleats 5mm rearward. Three-bolt cleat pattern fits all major road pedals. Non-slip replaceable heel tread with internally recessed screws for security. *** IMPORTANT FOR WIDE FIT*** the new base plate is 4mm wider than the standard width (8mm wider than S-Works 7)
The Torch 2.0 Road shoes are all about comfort—well comfort and performance that is. Due to the materials road shoes often feel stiff and uncomfortable. We decided to address this annoyance head on though. To do so we've implemented a 100% mesh and TPU construction on the Torch 2.0 that allows for more wiggle room in the toe box and a less constrictive sock-like feel. The upper is then paired with our medium-stiffness FACT carbon sole and a rubber heel and toe that provide the perfect degree of off-the-bike traction. For the closure we added a single lightweight Boa® IP1 dial that features tool-free snap replacement capability while also providing simple on-the-fly micro-adjustments. Body Geometry sole construction and footbeds are ergonomically designed and scientifically tested to boost power increase efficiency and reduce chance of injury by optimizing hip knee and foot alignment. Carbon sole with a 7.0 Stiffness Index is engineered to be moderately stiff yet light with a rubber heel and toe for off-the-bike traction. Lightweight Boa® IP1 dial closure for on-the-fly micro-adjustment backed by the Boa® Lifetime Guarantee. Mesh and TPU upper for a supple fit. Three-bolt cleat pattern fits all major road pedals. Approximate weight: 235g (1/2 pair Size 42)
What makes the perfect cycling shoe? Is it exceptional power transfer? Superior Comfort? Undeniable style? The simple answer is 'yes' to all of the above. With the S-Works 7 you get a shoe with no compromises. We took a no holds barred approach to transferring every bit of your power to the pedals. The lighter and stiffer Powerline™ carbon sole is new and brought to you by the same team that developed Rider-First Engineering. Why's this special? Because it led to our lightest and stiffest carbon outsole to date. A completely refined Padlock™ Heel meanwhile packs in more comfort with the same exceptional heel hold that you found in the previous iteration. And finally the space-grade Dyneema™ material used in the upper doesn’t stretch when pulled on making sure that your foot stays where it’s supposed to. With these all features combined you can be sure that we’ve kept in line with the motto “every watt is sacred.” In the comfort arena we kept all of the Body Geometry features you know and love like the Longitudinal Arch Varus Wedge and Metatarsal Button. Each one of these features have been ergonomically designed and scientifically tested to not only boost power but also to increase efficiency and reduce the risk of injury. We also took luxury into account by designing the S-Works 7 to have form that complements its function so you'll find seams that are bonded together rather than sewn cleaning up the lines and contouring to your foot with slipper-like comfort. The custom CNC’d alloy BOA® dials also add some panache but they also feature durable spring clutch internals and precise one-millimeter micro-adjustments that let you perfectly dial in your fit. The S-Works 7 embodies everything we know about footwear compacted into one shoe–no compromises no shortcuts just explosive speed and superior comfort. Body Geometry sole and footbed are ergonomically designed and scientifically tested to boost power increase efficiency and reduce the chance of injury by optimizing hip knee and foot alignment. Our stiffest and lightest FACT Powerline™ carbon plate maximizes power transfer: Stiffness Index 15.0 Dyneema® Mesh is trapped between layers of four-way stretch mesh and TPU to create no-stretch zones for the ultimate connection and comfort.

When the moment comes for an attack in the hills a long solo move or a full gas sprint for the line every watt counts which is why we designed the S-Works Ares to be the most efficient and powerful performance shoe ever made. We combined decades of Body Geometry development with obsessive innovation working with the world’s best athletes to completely reimagine the race shoe. An entirely new patent-pending closure system Dyneema®-reinforced toungless sock and ultra-stiff FACT Powerline™ carbon outsole eliminate foot roll reduce pressure on tendons and transfer every ounce 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 more comfort less injuries and higher power output comes from our ergonomically designed scientifically tested Body Geometry features—Longitudinal Arch Varus Wedge and personalized insoles with a Metatarsal Button. When used in harmony these three features align the hip foot and knee while also limiting medial/lateral knee movement and maintaining good circulation down to your toes. Patent-pending closure design secures the foot for extreme out-of-saddle efforts locking the metatarsals and preventing lateral roll. Dyneema® is sandwiched between layers of synthetic and TPU to create no-stretch zones for the ultimate connection and comfort.
