Today, Silca, the self-proclaimed “leader in marginal gains“, introduced what may be one of its most game-changing products yet: Titanium Clog Charms. You read that right. The brand takes marginal gains so seriously that they’ve finally applied that approach to your favorite foam slip-on footwear. After extensive research and testing, they’ve cracked the code, leveraging the watt-saving tech of their Aero Socks and utilizing in-house additive manufacturing to craft these titanium turbulators.
Whether you love or hate Croc footwear, you’re probably familiar with Croc charms, also known as Jibbitz. These little charms took the world by storm a few years back, allowing Croc-wearers to express themselves through personalization of their shoes. Now, Silca has a new way for hardcore cyclists to get in on the Croc charm action and save some precious watts in the process. At just 12.3 grams per set, these aero gains won’t weigh you down, either.
“At SILCA, we take marginal gains and performance seriously. After two years of relentless research, prototyping, and wind-tunnel testing, we have developed the most aerodynamic pair of foam slip-in clogs in the world… Designed to enhance foam clog performance, these small turbulators introduce small vortices in the boundary layer that energize the flow and promote flow attachment further around the foot. To celebrate this engineering achievement, we are offering a 3-pack of SILCA clog charms.”
Each set of three Titanium Clog Charms includes one turbolator, one Silca wordmark, and one Silca Shield logo. The Titanium Clog Charms are manufactured in-house at Silca HQ in Indianapolis, Indiana. They retail for $20 a set, which is surprisingly competitive in the Croc charms/Jibbitz market.
If you’re interested in picking up a set of Silca’s new Titanium Clog Charms, it’s worth mentioning that they come with a warning: they must be used in sport mode only. You don’t want your Crocs to fall off when you’re riding with all that newfound speed!
