Vittoria has launched a new, top of the line, lightweight road shoe called – the IKON.
The new IKON features a unique upper that’s made from Microfiber Soft Touch material, which allows for maximum breathability thanks it’s laser cut "micro holes". In addition, the insole is moldable, so riders can create a custom fit, while the outer sole partakes of a new uni-directional carbon fiber, that was specially made for the IKON. Furthermore, the carbon sole incorporates air vents, that are designed to keep air flowing through the shoe.
The IKON’s retention system, is Vittoria’s new SPP Micrometrics Closure System, which allows riders to easily open and close their shoes, as well as as adjust them while riding. The new shoe also has a heel retention system as well, that serves to keep the IKON in place under pedal pressure – throughout the range of motion.
According to Vittoria, the IKON weighs in at svelte 229g – making it one of the lightest shoe available.
The Ikon sells at the hefty price of $499, and it’s available in sizes ranging from 38 to 48, with half sizes throughout the range.
Perhaps, the best thing about the IKON, are the Porsche inspired "Signal" orange and green color options. Dig!
