S-Works Trail Shoes
Designed to combine the best traits of XC race shoes and the more recently evolved all-mountain variety, the S-Works Trail shoes are quite an interesting creation. Weighing around 740g a pair, they are as light as many XC race shoes. The carbon fibre mid-sole should keep the stiffness up for maximum power transfer. Seemingly at odds with these XC-race inspired features, the S-Works Trail shoes also feature full rubber tread that wraps around the sides. You’ll also find a good deal of extra protection, with a reinforced toe area and a high-cut inner cuff for extra support and added ankle protection. Like their other S-Works models, the Trail shoes use a Boa closure system but the dials have been moved to make them less prone to impacts. This top-end trail shoe retails for $399.
