S-Works Torch – Engineered to Disappear

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.

Note: In addition to the standard fit, the Specialized S-Works Torch is available in a wider version.

Features of the S-Works Torch

• 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).
