On the occasion of the UCI Road World Championships in the backyard in Zurich, Swiss shoemaker Suplest unveil the latest evolution of their top Road Pro carbon-soled road cycling shoes. Now lighter than ever, the Road Pro shoes get an all-new upper construction and unique forefoot flex designed for improved high-performance pedaling comfort.

And in addition to the new top-tier road cycling shoes, Suplest also has 2 new pairs of off-bike shoes, as well. The official sneakers of the Swiss Cycling team at road worlds, they come in both classic and more modern style options to choose from…

This latest iteration of Suplest’s top-tier carbon Road Pro further refines their flagship road cycling shoes, while carrying over much of their core tech. That means you still get the same Anatomic Wrap asymmetric construction for comfortable and adjustable fit, no matter your foot shape or volume. You still get the thin Carbon Shield beneath Boa wires for more even pressure distribution. And you get the 3D-Heelcounter shaped heel cup for solid support and a secure fit.

But now there’s a new lighter 1-piece upper that starts with a 3D-mesh, coated in a thin TPU layer for improved durability and comfort. And there’s a new ‘Flex Zone’ in the forefoot developed with pro cyclists that Suplest says “maximizes foot comfort during the pressure phase on the pedal” without compromising stiffness. The shoes are still rated 10/10 for stiffness with the full UD carbon sole prioritizing pedaling efficiency
