Product Description:

The Northwave Storm Carbon road shoe, which replaces the Flash 2 Carbon, has a Morph Carbon 12 AAS sole with a full carbon insert in the pedal area, which is characterized by a stiffness index of 12.0. The exclusive Adaprive Arch Support®, made of TPU, allows the shoe to adapt perfectly to the arch of the foot. The ideal sole for every foot! The shoe is compatible with the NW Speedplay adapter (not included) for less distance between foot and pedal.

The unibody construction combines large and strategically placed mesh inserts with ultra-thin reinforcements. The result is very good breathability combined with maximum stability. The extremely open-pored mesh fabric ensures perfect ventilation. The asymmetrical lacing distributes the pressure from the back of the foot and guides it perfectly around the entire foot.

The cycling shoe has an SLW2 dial with extra Velcro fastener: the only one with gradual loosening and complete opening at the touch of a button. The Performance Regular footbed offers more support from below.

Features of the Northwave Storm Carbon road bike shoes

SPEEDPLAY ADAPTOR (not included) | Smallest distance between the foot and the pedal. Together with SpeedPlay, Northwave developed a patented adaptor that enables maximum power transmission to the pedal thanks to its low thickness of 0.5mm (instead of 3mm with conventional adapters). Made of polyamide with a thin aluminum plate (saves 8.5g), it respects the natural anatomy of the foot and reduces the distance between pedal and shoe, regardless of position. Superfluous elements have been omitted to save weight.

REGULAR FIT | By measuring hundreds of different feet and through countless prototypes and tests, Northwave has developed the perfect shape for 100% power transfer directly to the pedal. The toe area has just the right amount of space to avoid numbness. The slightly offset instep and the special, close-fitting design in the heel area keep the foot in the right position with every pedal rotation and prevent unwanted movements.

MORPH CARBON 12AAS | Direct power transmission and arch support for every foot shape. The full carbon insert in the pedal area gives you precise feedback from the pedal with first-class air circulation and minimal weight. The Morph Carbon 12 AAS sole impresses with its exclusive Anatomical Arch Support® - an arch support made of TPU that is integrated between the sole and upper shoe and thus adapts the shoe perfectly to your arch. This gives you the best possible support at all times. TPU reduces unwanted flex and is therefore the ideal support material for long rides.

ANATOMICAL ARCH SUPPORT®| Not all feet are the same, not even in the same person. The big difference lies in the individual shape of the arch of the foot. Precise, customized support in this area is crucial to prevent tendonitis or overstretching in the arch area. However, individual arch support alone does not provide sufficient stability and sometimes even high-quality soles with built-in arch support fail because they provide too much or too little support for the individual foot.

Northwave has combined the advantages of different support methods, eliminated their respective disadvantages and developed the first universal solution available on the market: the exclusive, patented Anatomical Arch Support technology. Embedded between the sole and upper shoe, this support technology enables the shoe to adapt to the individual arch of the foot and ensure the best possible support at all times during any type of movement and training. TPU offers just the right degree of stability and is therefore the ideal material for long rides. However, TPU guarantees exactly the right mix of comfort and support, even for riders who prefer a less extreme support insert than carbon arch supports.

S.L.W. 2 | Maximum precision and user-friendliness. The side control button offers two functions: for step-by-step opening, simply press the button - or lift the button to open the boot completely immediately. The ergonomic design of the fastener is adapted to the natural shape of the foot. For added comfort with minimal height and weight. The outer elastic cover ensures easier and better operability. The special rope used makes use of the best technologies from sailing and can be easily replaced if necessary.
