Specialized S-Works Vent EVO Gravel Shoes
The S-Works Vent EVO by Specialized - First-class ventilated gravel shoe
The S-Works Vent EVO shoes for gravel biking inspire with top ventilation, outstanding stiffness, traction and ergonomics. Specialized combines the high-performance carbon sole of the S-Works Recon with the unique upper of the S-Works Vent road shoe. Mesh fabric wicks away moisture and actively helps to cool your feet, especially on hot days or during races. A ventilated toe box enhances this effect. To ensure that power transfer is not overlooked, the upper shoe has been reinforced with supple Dyneema® fibres. In addition, the enveloping heel construction and two finely adjustable BOA® S3 twist closures ensure a firm hold. With their longitudinal arch support and other Body Geometry features, the shoes promote clean, joint-friendly pedalling so you can deliver more performance and reduce the risk of overuse. It is also possible to mount the cleats offset by 5 mm to the rear. An anti-slip rubber tread at the front and back and removable toe studs help you keep your footing on any type of terrain.

Technology:
FACT™FACT is an acronym for " Functional Advanced Composite Technology" and summarises all the know-how that Specialized has in the use of carbon fibre. It is a holistic approach, which primarily concerns the bike frames, but is found in many components such as handlebars, stems, saddles etc. The starting point is always the awareness for the needs of riders and the capability to fulfil them. Next, the selection of fibres, resins and fabric layers takes place; in this process the quality of the carbon and the arrangement of the fibre layers play an important role. It is important to find the right set-up for the project at hand and the intended location or rather the area of application. It is often necessary to differentiate from model to model at several points. In the final step, attention is paid to processing the material in a way that allows the desired advantages in terms of low weight, rigidity and stability to be achieved.
Body Geometry
Body Geometry products from Specialized address the contact points between rider and bike. They are designed in collaboration with doctors, scientists and athletes to increase performance, improve riding comfort and prevent injuries, taking into account medical-anatomical aspects. Body Geometry features are found on Specialized saddles (padding, shaping), shoes (outsole, footbed, etc.) as well as gloves (padding).
