Fizik X2 Terra Clima Clip-in Cycling Shoes, Olive/Caramel, Size 40.5 EU

As seasons change, with trails that can be wet and muddy even long after the rain has stopped, every off-road rider needs a shoe that can cope with all conditions – to push the ride further, up and down hill, tackling dry or wet terrain, both on and off the bike. Clima X2 is ready for all this and more, three seasons of the year. The Clima X2’s construction makes it possible to adapt to these conditions. It features a waterproof liner that also allows moisture vapor to escape, helping regulate temperature and improve comfort. The upper’s outside offers protection from the elements: its layered, hardwearing ripstop woven fabric resists tearing and ripping. A PU-laminated toecap and side reinforcements add further protection and durability, while the integrated socklike knitted gaiter seals out dust and debris. The sturdy Velcro strap quickly and securely cinches the instep while the BOA-controlled adjustment provides a micro-tuneable fit for the forefoot area. The X2 outsole expresses the versatility of these shoes: engineered to deliver an optimal balance between efficient pedaling performance and flexibility for comfort and control, on and off the bike, so riders are covered for those hike-a-bike moments. The compressed EVA midsole provides stability and cushioning, while the Vibram Megagrip rubber tread ensures grip and traction, whatever the conditions underfoot. The directional lug pattern has been designed for confident footing on clipless pedals, with spacing and depth designed to bite into softer soil and a compound ideal for gripping on slick rocks. X2 has an extended cleat track, with more set back and greater flexibility for choosing cleat placement.
